Leter, will an amp that can drive the susvara well be developed?

hi
There is no such plan at present. SA-1 is already very good.

I wanted to make a volume control-five pieces came out. I worked without a lathe, so the geometry is not perfect. Four handles still need to be finalized, and the fifth immediately fit perfectly. Made of oak and cherry. Photo under the spoiler.

Is it difficult to replace the volume knob?

 

[Tazyn]

make-yes, replace-no

I have a constant current of 42mA on the dac. Am I not allowed to put jumpers?

What DAC are you all using with the SA1?

I'm glad to see that everyone likes SA-1.

mine gets hot, but other than that...

It's weird, mine doesn't get that hot anymore. Gets mildly warm now.

Mine stays just a bit above room temperature, regardless of load.

Mine got only hot the first couple of times I used it. Now it doesn't get warmer than every other A/B amp that I owned.

Meaning you notice it is on, but nothing to worry about.

So far really impressed with the buildquality. Soundquality. if Singxer ever made A/B loudspeaker amps I would seriously consider getting one.

I just wanted to drop by and give some totally unsolicited advice real quick. If someone has a 6x0 go ahead and try it on high gain. I've been using my new Bori for the last 3 weeks and just wanted to try my 580 and 650 and compare, but they sounded HORRIBLE to me (very, very unengaging, no dynamics at all) and it turns out I had it on low gain. I switched back to high gained like I used to have it and all of a sudden everything came alive.

Not everyone will prefer it but if you have a 6x0 and usually listen to low gain try high gain, it's much more engaging. Don't forget to switch it like me, it almost made me sell my 580 cause I thought they sounded so bad LOL.

Against what you want to replace him?

Agreed, always use high gain with my 600. I also use it w my M1ST which really doesn't need it but sounds phenomenal also

Something in silver/grey

I may be in the minority, but I prefer the softer sound of low gain.

You all are otherwise right though: right around the 300 hour mark, mine both mellowed out and opened up. Juicy midrange, delicate highs, and a wide open soundstage. My closed-back DCA Ether CX now sound way more open than a closed-back design should sound. Damn.
