My choices are either PCM+ or DSD+. My thinking is that if Blu2 is converting a DSD file to PCM then I should set my DAVE to PCM+ mode (even if the original file was DSD). @Rob Watts Hope you can clarify for me.

Does this mean that I should set the DAVE to PCM+ mode when using with the Blu2 when playing DSD files?

I was looking back through this thread. Last November, you posted multiple times about how great the DAVE/GS-X Mk2 combo is. Most others argued that it made the sound too bright and you argued that it was just very transparent. Your comment to my post reads to me as if you aren't as strongly...

I'm looking for a new headphone amp for my Abyss Phi headphones. I'm currently using a Mjolnir Audio Pure BiPolar headphone amp fed by a Chord DAVE DAC. The Pure BiPolar provides about 1W into 50 ohms in Class A. I'm looking for something neutral and transparent (to hopefully maintain the...

Received the missing tips yesterday and they have been re-united with the rest of the gear. The kit was sent today via UPS to @briskly and will arrive on April 5. Tracking information has been shared with @briskly Thanks @Barra for arranging the tour!

I'm in the custom camp, but admit that this has a lot to do with each person's ears and what type of fit you can achieve with universals. I've never felt that I've achieved a great fit with any universals and am constantly adjusting them even after I put them in my ears. For me, customs are the...

Not sure what qualifies as a power amp. Would my Mjolnir Audio Pure BiPolar headphone amp be considered a power amp? If so, why do you say not to plug a power amp into the P5 Power Plant?

Can you describe the improvements you are hearing?

What other Effect audio cables did you try with your WM1Z - U18t and why did you settle on the Eros II+? I have the WM1Z and A18 Tzar and use the Lionheart currently.

I received the kit yesterday evening. All looks to be in good shape (however there is only one pair of tips included). @Barra is that what was included? I am leaving for travel on next week, so these will go out to the next person in line on March 27. I will be contacting them now for...

I agree to the terms of the tour. Palo Alto, CA You have my complete contact info from previous tours. Thanks!

Nope.

I'm definitely considering it seriously. I'll let you know before the March 20th deadline.

What is the specific 8 wire cable that created this experience with the A18?

No issues whatsoever with the EA plugs and I’ve had 3 different plugs.

Thanks for providing all of the info. Very helpful. You are correct, I have been using a ROCK. I have also recently purchased a tX-U. Based on what you've posted, I just arranged to have a demo trial of a Innuos Zenith Mk. II STD Music Server sent to me (no SE's to be found). Your...

Before you stop posting, can you detail your audio chain of components? I'm also on a quest to get my file playback up to (or past) the level of the Blu CD. I'm close, but looking to see what your solution ended up being to see what I might try next. Thanks.

Do you have a link to a place in the US?

Can you provide a link to the SACD iso extractor tool that you have had good results with?

Can you provide a link to a place to buy the Belden cable with Trompeter BNC connectors?

Do you know what solder they use?
