    Mimic has said that there was an outage of services at Google which is why your email may have bounced recently. Otherwise it should work.

    Mod House Audio Tungsten - Planar Magnetic Headphones - Impressions and Discussion

    I don't see that anywhere and I tried to see if I can find old links on the mimic audio website. I don't know why the email doesn't work other than Mimic letting his DNS or email service lapse.

    Holo Audio May DAC Speculation

    GoldenSound's review of the Rockna Wavedream pretty much places it above the May. But the latest Signature is way ahead.

    Mod House Audio Tungsten - Planar Magnetic Headphones - Impressions and Discussion

    There is a small barrier to entry through popular YouTube reviewers to join their Telegram or Discord server through a membership subscription. Some reviewers have free access to their chats so this barrier is pretty thin. Their is a clique of sorts but its organic and not exclusionary. It...

    Holo Audio May DAC Speculation

    In version 5 (and similarly in version 4) you set the output to "SDM" and select 44.1x512 or 48x512. And make sure to set the modulator and noise shaper according to how powerful your PC is. 512 barely works on the Mac (which I think is at least an option with HQPlayer because of DirectDSD) but...

    Holo Audio May DAC Speculation

    I second @jcn3 and recommend that you use upsampling to DSD512. If you're using HQPlayer and then yeah it will sound amazing that way on the May.

    Audio Grade Fuses

    What happens to the original fuse? do you replace it with a fuse that is just pure copper?

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I’m skeptical that it’s obsolete junk a few years later. Every high end computer I’ve built holds up for 5-7 years even for games if you replace the GPU.

    HiFiMan Susvara

    Susvara is very revealing of your equipment capabilties. Right now my current set up seems to introduce a bit of noise since timbre and clarity seems to be affected negatively when compared to the Tungsten DS with UP pads. At CanJam NY testing both headphones on high end amps tells me that the...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I seem to have gotten a brand new Susvara with the hospital catheter sleeve. Serial number seems to confirm it’s a recent production too (at the time). Yes, gold is what makes it hard to drive.

    HiFiMan Susvara

    That makes me Le Sad. I had a rattling noise in my right driver so I sent it in. Initially they charged me 300 dollars and I sent them the venmo receipt I had. They were satisfied and sent me a label. Then they said it was out of warranty (it was a 2.5mm Susvara) and then charged me an...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    Susvara is 300 dollars to replace out of warranty if and only if you have proof of purchase. Otherwise it’s 1500 USD to replace them for issues.

    HQPlayer Impressions and Settings Rolling Thread

    I believe you may have a firmware issue. Is your May a few years old? I had to update mine using a windows pc to use a particular version so that I get no static.

    It doesn’t work as in it seems the guitars sound like an alien instrument or something. It’s more of a timbre issue.
