Hey everyone! I'm still around, just kind of forgot how to be social. I don't have any new gear, but looking forward to a spring meet to see people again.

that's true.

I have contacted the company which take over the maintenance after cavalli closed, but I didnt get any reply

I also opened it and try to see anything wrong inside, but have no idea about IC board at all, so just composed it back

it is really glad to hear that maybe someone can fix it

Thanks again

Eventually!!!!!

I find what is problem to make my Cavalli Liquid Carbon channel imbalanced, it is power cable!!!!

Last week, I lent Cavalli to my friend with my spare power cable. the cabel I used just left it on the socket of wall, so lazy.
Then my friend told me my amp is totally fine, he didnt have any imbalanced issue between two channel.

I was like 0_o what!!??

So I got it back and try couple times cross check to test the behavior between my LC V1 and V2 with the power cable I used before and the spare one.

After a week, now I can tell both my V1 and V2 are all fine with the spare power cable, perfect sound!!! no issue at all!!! not at all!!!

fxxx you power cable..................

..... I'm at a loss to explain how that could even happen. Like, it seems physically impossible.

Maybe the offending cable has the hot and neutral swapped and that is playing havok with the psu system in the amp? But for sure super, super odd. I even wonder if the issue will return and it is just something that is hibernating at the moment.

Just popping in here, as I've been watching Kijiji for a while and haven't seen anything pop up.

Does anybody here have a bluetooth reciever they are willing to part with? Something like the ES100 or a BTR/BTR3? Or maybe an older, budget friendly DAP?

Long story short, my headphones are HD650s and a bit ago I switched over to my first phone with no headphone jack (Pixel 6 Pro). I've got a USB C-to-3.5mm adapter and it works fine for most modern music, but I listen to lots of older, pre-loudness war madness stuff and for that stuff it doesn't have enough jam.

I believe I could also get a different small USB C DAC/headphone amp, but I'd rather not put extra strain on the usb port while it's all in my pocket walking about. Would much rather use a dedicated DAP or ES100-type device.

Thanks!

Hey guys, now that restrictions are lifting do we want to start planning the next meetup? There might be some toys of interest that people would want to hear.

I may be able to host later in April, but it's pretty busy over here with work and a new puppy. That said, I'm certainly interested in a meet soon!

Meet Haru.

Hello Haru! Is Sophie prepared to share the attention?

Sophie is doing pretty well. She can get a little jealous at times but for the most part she is happy taking naps while we deal with training and all that other puppy stuff. They are quickly becoming good wrestling buddies.

How does everyone feel about a meet in late April? I may be able to host as long as people are OK with two monsters lurking around your ankles. By then my bbq might even be visible and we could spark it up!

 

[Armaegis]

I'm usually busy Sunday/Monday evenings, but otherwise my evenings are flexible.

Noted. I think I will rework and repost my previous event options links and see if I get any feedback.

Putting it out there: https://demo.firepad.io/#f5tBQ4ChHi Thinking of just a quick meet in April. I know @Rubin is also interested. I am thinking low levels of gear and more just a hang out and catch up. Maybe we do almost a "show and tell" or "Favourite piece of gear" theme and see who brings what and see how it all sounds.

I am also very interested in peoples opinions on my work rooting a V30 phone and tuning its DAC and amp into a pretty good DAP. I would be keen to A/B it to any other DAP to see how it stands up.
