Synthesis Amplifiers: One of High End's Best Kept Secrets?
Agreed.  I would also own the same amp. No issue for me. I am sharing something folks living around the fruited plan should think about.  Also hoping the company or dealers read this so future product has probe locations on top of the amp.   
Synthesis Amplifiers: One of High End's Best Kept Secrets?
Yes, the problem is under that bottom cover you have some 400-500vdc at your fingertips and one better know what the heck they are doing. A wrong move and serious injury or death is possible. So this amp is really not bias capable by most folks. ... 
聖HIJIRI Users thread
No worries as Hijiri cables are not characterized by an overly warm or syrupy sound.  They are naturally revealing and in my experience not really favoring any particular part of the sound spectrum.  Best to contact Colin of Gestalt Audio Design a... 
Help with V-Cap ODAM directionality in crossover
How did your upgrade turn out? Most interested.  Yes, the caps will take some. 120-200 hours to be 90% burned in. They open up a lot in just 30 hours.   
Network optimization for serious streamers
I want to share a network upgrade in sound quality that has me smiling. I have used the Network Acoustics streaming cables and filters since that were offered several years ago. Network Acoustics is really doing some great things for streaming aud...

The Muon USB cable will be very good. Looking forward to hearing which one you keep. I own the Network Acoustics Muon Pro streaming cables and streaming filter.They are outstanding. I have also owned their USB cable. Don’t forget to try an SR Pur...

Chris, you have found a wonderful match to your Fyne 704 speakers and that is everything! The transformers in your amp are a big reason why it sounds so good. They are very special. I admire your dedication to finding the perfect amp for your syst...

@mitch2    Nicely put together digital front end.  Never heard the Mojo server and bet it is very good!   
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
LEDs add noise. Bypass and listen. In a well resolving system with a person who cares about such sonic things the sonic impact can be heard. Yes I am a crazy audiofool so try for yourself and let your own ears and system decide.   
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
LEDs hurt the sound. I learned this long ago. I have disabled all the LEDs (possible) in my gear.   
Ray Charles - "Rap is not music"
@ab2ab    Nice post and thank you!  
Ray Charles - "Rap is not music"
It’s ok to have opinions. Just how we each feel and it’s mature to allow opinions without judgement and ridicule. I think rap is not good music and the message found in most of it is both dangerous and destructive for society. Not all of it, but t... 
Help with V-Cap ODAM directionality in crossover
Proper heat dissipation by allowing air flow all around resistors. Perhaps a tad too high off the board, but overall a great idea. Need to lift resistors off the board and do not use hot glue anywhere near resistors!  Depending on where the board... 
Help with V-Cap ODAM directionality in crossover
I assumed you were just using the Odams on the tweeter board. If using them on the woofer board, then that cap is most likely in parallel with the woofer driver output leads. This cap position is far less important than a series cap, but still can...
