@iFi audio @Sebastien Chiu Then i am searching for the most transparent sound with great depth like a Chord Hugo 2, so what is the best filter / firmware recommendation for the highest resolution and timing? (The standard filter that is included today is muddy and warm, and i do not like it)...

Interesting, how did you preform the none battery mod on your Diablo, and what power supply are you using. I thought you go pass the battery when you connect the included iPower PSU ?

Hum, all the reviews i have seen and read through i find are overrated because the difference between these two units are very subtle, and i do not feel the power difference at all and the sound is more ample and got more focus in the signature vs the Diablo. But I will try to change the filter...

I have also a iDSD micro Diablo in for comparison vs the iDSD micro signature. what is your thoughts of the Signature with 7.4c GTO filter installed vs the Diablo SQ wise, if we dont look at the power spec, just the sound at the same volume level. Is the Diablo superior in all areas vs the...

Thanks for the informative answer

Hi Have you tested or used the Enleum for planar headphones or primary as speaker amp?

Very interesting! Have you also heard the MSB Premiere DAC or similar new gen MSB, or the AMR DP 777 SE DAC to compare these two units also in the same? Then i have also viewed this users Youtube where he states he got a modified Rockna Wavelight DAC, and it would be great to know what has...

Here is an High End example on how it can be dun by Double Helix Cables : https://www.head-fi.org/threads/dhc-flagella-reference-occ-litz.861962/

” The Best Sounding Headphone period ! ”

I sold mine for a couple of years ago and bought the Hugo and the the DAVE then Blu II , Hugo 2 etc , etc ... I still got the very unusual and rare Chord Metal system remote for DAVE, and Prime ,Prima etc in Coral range products and the Coral Modular Stand left if someone is reading this and...

Its a bit aside from TT2 and DAVE, you can compare it to TT and 2Qute DAC maybe, where the QBD76 HDSD is great on serten things, high resolution ,warmth , great low end and ok depth for it's age. the TT and 2Qute got better focus and separation , but QBD76 got slight bigger sound and can...

Hi Thanks Thanks for your reply , yes i was afraid that was the answer why there is zero EDM DSD out there becsuse you cant edit in DSD yet sadly. So maybe high res MQA CD’s is the best medium for EDM music.

I have searched for EDM , techno , Ambient and similar genres ( Not Classic or Jazz ) that is recorded in DSD for download or primilary for SACD’s , but i have realized that there aren't to many worth buying, so i want to ask here if someone have find or know of any albums in this audio...

Pretty nice bump Hi Roy Just interested to hear your verdic after 1,5 years time what BNC cable did came out on the top? Did you try the Sotm BNC etc, or did you settled on Habst ? I ordered the Habst in 0,75 m length ( not burned in yet, just about 100 h ) , and compare it just for fun to a...

Great sharing! Here is another electro 3D recording made for Abyss : How do like your new Diana Phi vs your previously Abyss Phi besides comfort and weight ?

The Abyss responed very well to the Abyss Death metal band haha https://tidal.com/album/44097085

There is alot of small garage companies or DIY tube headphone amps to find especially in Asia, but if we look a the High End side and more common names like, the WOo’s , EC, E.A.R MP4 , Wavelength , Audiovalve , Pathos etc , they does not make a whole lot of power, but you get the spark and the...

Sorry for my poor grammar and spelling, and yes you are right, i am not a native Englishman, but i try my best to keep up :)

I think you have to read one more time. I refereed to that the Studio can handle the Abyss Phi , but the ZDS will most probably be to weak , you need some headroom, so i would not recommend it. That is my opinion Go for the Studio ( Used one ) in that case

Not EC ZDS , but the Studio, and the EC ZDS is to weak in output power in this case with 650 mW just. You will get a very detailed, high resolutioned sound with some warmth, but not overwhelmingly alot. Mybe the ZDS is more gentle than the studio perhaps. The Abyss likes Tube-amps , but i can...

In short the BL is fuller and got great impact, vs H2 got slight more nuances and got better separation. The BL got the X-Bass that can be a fun somethimes , whereas the H2 is slightly light in the low end. I did play the H2 through the analog input on the BL then down to the Ican, for the...

Just for collecting a special edition, because as Joe also stated this is the last version for Abyss, i do not upgrade for any other hypothetic SQ matter i can ensure you. ✌️ Often a special edition is always going to gain in value later on, even if its just the paint and pads.

I Will most likely place an order on the new Abyss Phi Reference CC , so my Abyss Phi is up for sale if someone is interested.

Any serious comparisons to Dave, or TT + Blu II vs DAVE + Blu II yet? Can imagine that the TT will sound fast with great transients with its super fast super capacitors =)
