Hi guys, been enjoying all the info in this thread but am confused re THE last posts regarding "filter". Sorry I don't know what you mean by all the different filters.
I'm using tablet for streaming Tidal and Qobuz via Singxer SU-6 thru Denafrips Terminator directly into KGSSHV using SR-L700 (Pro) and SR-5 Gold (Std).
Trying to decide between SR-009 or SR-007.
Thanks! Regards, Tony.
They’re talking about EQ. You can add different preset settings through software to change the sound through different players.
Do you think that 007 or 009 can compete with Susvara?
Definitely

Have fun with that😌
The first photo looks like Kerry's T2 - so perhaps not the one being sold. If so then right away a reason to stay away. If this is the case then posting photos of someone else's work and trying to pass it off as yours is never a good idea.
Let's not even talk about the lethal voltages running around inside which can kill you if the unit is not properly assembled

Yup, that’s just pictures of my build.

I jut received my package with SR-009 :) Testing. I noticed that when 009 are moved on my head the vacuum between my ears and the cup creates that sound of moving membrane. Is that normal?

No, you have to get used to it. Or sell :)

Hmmmmmm, interesting. I wish more reviewers would openly describe this behaviour/quirk. Like some amps and their stepped volume knobs, clicking audibly, or dacs relay clicking on bitrate change, not enough reviewers describe "liveability" with this kind of gear :frowning2:

True, that would be helpful. Sometime you get the feeling they don't even listen to the equipment..

Are SR-007 the same?
No, in stock configuration there'll be no stax fart. I wouldn't go without the blutack mod to close the port, though. With the port closed you'll experience it sometimes. Not as often as on 009

Stax fart? Why I've never heard about that? None of the reviews ever talk about the fart.

Gumby has that clicking relay. Just found out recently, after purchasing.

I am driving 009 with SRM-252S :) Now I need a real amp. Is any one selling 717?
