I'm seeing real, live equipment racks!

Have read much about Burson opamps. They look huge, too large for some applications. How do they sound to you?

I like the Burson's opamps a lot on my setups. The opamps pushes the audio quality from mid-fi to hi-fi. For my amps I like the older V4 more. It improves the lower subbass region and everything else more separated. For the Preamps, I like the V6 classic and V5. In one of my portable amps I have pair of V5i's in there. Slighty better dynamics vs the Muses02.

Yes, the Burson's are taller, but that is why I make extensions and put the Opamps on its side.

extensions? that's ingenious!

Not the Headtrip Reference.. It'm getting the $7k refresh of the original HT. Super excited.

Final chain will be: .Auralic Aries G2 > Denafrips Terminator > Wells Headtrip 2 > Audeze LCD4. Dedicated 20 amp line, PS Audio P3 regenerator, and full Shunyata cabling. I'm hoping to cure my audio nervosa soon.

My current set up, only two headphones I currently use. Beyerdynamic T1.2 Black Edition(plugged into Sony UDA-1) and a modified DT 480 - 25 Ohm(plugged into Magni 3).

Annoyingly a patch of dead pixels appeared on the middle of my main screen after a year and a half. I guess it didn't like being photographed and put up here . Thankfully Amazon returns are 2 years so I returned it for replacement...

Guess what the replacement had a red stuck pixel out the box lol! Hopefully the one arriving tomorrow fairs a bit better!

A new baby arrived : An Aurender W20 to feed my Denafrips Terminator R2R DAC. I went to Germany to colect this used W20.

Now I will have to test what is the best connection between them : USB, AES or Coax ! And what best brand for the selected connection .... (Shunyata Sigma is on my short list)

Lot of cable to try...lot of fun !


Booth DAC & Server are now waiting to be brought back in my house south of France.

And... please do not make fun about the wodden top of the W20: in addition to the original top, the vendor also supplied me with this strange « wood top » made by Mr. Rudolf (A Capella) that is supposed to provide Optimization with Woodcolumn in Holes in the top which are standing on some Parts of the Elekttonik and on the Column Wood compensator, all to Reduce Vibration and Mikrophonie. Everything is easily removeabale without any damage and the Original top can Mount. (see picture. It looks funny isn’t it . —> Have you heard of this strange top optimized ?

How very feng-shui-ish.
