    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    I was able to get a short demo yesterday. I posted my quick impressions in the Abyss Headphones Owner's Club in Telegram, so for anyone in there this is redundant: "I got to listen to three songs on the DZ, with a TC to switch back and forth to. Stack was a sagra DAC, Broadway amp, iPad...

    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    It's generally isolated to r/headphones. A large group there puts a heavy emphasis on price/performance and generally anything beyond a Quadlix 5k with an HD600 is severely scrutinized. It's not all like that though. Especially if you already have the equipment and are sharing well thought out...

    New Amp from HeadAmp - GS-X Mini

    I have noticed that sometimes the noise measurements are done at like 90%, so there might be a reason to instead of turning to full to turn to 90%. So that is worth trying methinks. However i have tried that with the gs-x mini and i do not believe it to me an issue. even on very sensitive or...

    New Amp from HeadAmp - GS-X Mini

    Some amps work best with a specific voltage or range of voltages, and DACs output that different ways on their volume pots. So when both devices have a pot there often a game of turning both at the same time to find the sweet spot. For a while i was using a Gustard A26 straight into the gs-x...

    ZMF Auteur Thread

    I sent my auteur in for the classic upgrade and yeah i'd agree the bokeh and the classic compliment each other well. Especially since i've landed on the suede pads and solid mesh filter on the bokeh. But when switching to protein pads and no filter it gets a lot closer to the Auteur classic...

    [HELP] Network Streamers and Media Player

    Ah yeah, i've had Plex Lifetime since they launched as an option and primarily use it for movies/tv. So the cost is so sunk for me it's in the mariana trench. Plexamp ends up being just a fun bonus.

    Roger that and i figured as much from ZMF's sales perspective. I was wondering if any hobbyists have both, and are now grabbing their auteur way less because they have the bokeh.

    [HELP] Network Streamers and Media Player

    I am a plexamp user and i switched to Roon because i noticed the DSD recording weren't flagging as DSD on my DAC. I don't know if i could tell an audible difference, but the additional utility of having Roon running in my house has been really nice so overall i'm happy with the switch. I do...

    Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC

    I only use my spring 3 KTE as a USB device to my PC. I use HQplayer for software upsampling. I have my spring 3 kte tucked away in a corner and i never look at it or touch. Opinion question: Should is sell the spring 3 kte and buy a Cyan 2?

    Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC

    Building a pi streamer is solderless, is easy to achieve the same feature set, and can potentially produce a better quality sound. Actually, you can probably save money by only including features you need. BUT, the big benefit is that you can upgrade it yourself easily as you go along without...
