V2.0 of SuperMacro!
The main thing new in this new version is the architecture: true triple mono - separated L, R and ground channels. Most changes/improvements are in the ground channel which also features a new key component for better performance and reliability. This V2.0 has better bass and sound image, sounds quieter and works more stable as well. Also, this version can work at lower voltage; therefore batteries can last longer.
This new version can deploy optimally any popular audio opamps, such as OPA637, 627, 228, 227, 604, AD8610, 825, 797, NE5534, LM6171 etc., at default gain 5 or higher.
Higher current in both battery-save and AC mode, for richer sounding either on road or at home.
The volume pot is also changed for better low-volume control for some very sensitive headphones.
Larger caps: 6800uF (standard), 4400uF (opamp sockets) and 2400uF (buffer sockets), respectively.
Shipping of the new V2.0 will start in 1-2 week(s). All unshipped orders will be held for this new version.
Current owners of SuperMacro will be able to upgrade by replacing the circuit board(s). Details will be set shortly.
Thank you!
