The Brooklyn+ is an amazing DAC for the price. Even the built-in phonostage is surprisingly good. Only issue I have had with it is the screens, being OLED they suffered severe burn-in. To be fair I have never turned it off. But I sent it in for repair since they have a 2 year warranty. The SBooster turns the Brooklyn into a real contender with a nice bump to the low end and drops any remnants of a noise floor. Highly recommend the combo.
Really great to know, both about the issue and of it being covered by warranty! Thanks for the tip on the combo too. Did you ever use it for headphones?

Wow, the Brooklyn looks so nice and compact amongst everything there. I want one even more badly now.

It is a beautiful device that is even more beautiful in person than the photos. The build is just gorgeous. I love mine.

Briefly when I was breaking in a pair of ZMF Eikon's. Very linear, very much sounding like a pro-audio solution - cold. But I never really liked the Eikon's so that may have been partly it. But agree with the user above, she sure is a looker. A very nice piece!

I like the contrast between Amiron and the minimalist keyboard and, beside the table, the ancient phone :relaxed: Good pics and better landscape.

And next to the phone (which I actually use, btw)... a display rack of fountain pens! (which I also use)

My office is my happy place :relieved:

Nice space!

Also a nice M Stage Matrix (have 2 of them--it's a sweet little amp)

Thanks! Yes, the Matrix M-Stage is a fantastic amp. I especially like the ability to try different op-amps and change the gain. Really allows for fine-tuning to your specific needs!

True indeed. I tried 2 much-praised opamps and pretty much hated the resulting sound. Then I tried a 3rd--perfect sound!
