The JPS Labs: Abyss AB-1266 Impressions Thread
Some people are allergic to the dyeing of the leather when these leathers are chrome-tanned, not to the leather itself. Long story short, these allergies are due to the presence of chrome. Statistics say that around 10% of a population may declare such allergies. When a headband is placed on...- Delacaff

Hey guys. Currently working on a prototype of comfy headband for the 1266. Super premium leathers on both sides, slick upper leather in various colors, suede leather for the lower side, totally hand-stitched. Form factor is now settled (see pic below). We - me the designer and my Leather man...- Delacaff

I can easily understand your enjoyment my friend. Congratulations for the Abyss and welcome to the Abyss-mania. I had the stand too and I confirm that it's a great addition from Stefan. Did you give the SuperConductor a try? It takes the Abyss to a next level. As of the new headband, it's nice...- Delacaff

Is it on low or high gain position? With sensitive cans, you'd better select low gain and the hiss should disappear. Worth trying at least.- Delacaff

I assume that LPSU is more significant for non-audiophile device (computer, HDD) than for audiophile grade streamer like Lumin. That saying, it seems that Kenneth Lau produces great LPSU for Lumin. Great but expansive...- Delacaff

You mention linear power supplies several times in your post. It seems that powering your computer with LPS makes a huge difference. I am considering to get a Paul Hynes (UK) or Rose Audio (FR) or UpTone model some day in order to fuel my MacMini and external HD.- Delacaff

I second that. I doesn't make sense at all to make a computer upsample the audio files with MScaler and Bartok. I think that F208Frank is rather questioning the impact of the sound engine of a player (Roon, HQP, Audirvana...) aside its ability of upsampling or not. As always, I think that the...- Delacaff
