OCD HiFi Guy has guts


At about 9 minutes 30 seconds, he starts to mod a 20k Vermeer (Audio Aero) DAC. Damn, it takes guts (or something else) to chop up a piece of gear that expensive. OTOH, while he and a lot of people judge the price of a component based on the internals, he can’t figure out why the Vermeer, with relatively little inside, sounds better than the Terminator, which is packed with parts. All this aside, I think Mike is an interesting guy to watch. I don’t think you can judge the quality of components from You tube videos, but his stuff is somewhat entertaining.

No one claimed he was intelligent. He would get along with Frank! 😁
Entertainment is the comments on youtube where people claim to be able to hear the differences in the mod ... via youtube.
I think there is more to the story as to why OCD Guy is no longer hugs and kisses with the Terminator. He actually is selling his demo unit here and says he will service it, if need be. Confusing.
@yyzsantabarbara He is not a Denafrips dealer anymore and of course is promoting other brands now. It's business.
