Best Class D GaNFET Amp Comparison. Who to invite?
That's a shame, I was hoping to see a comparison between the Aavik and the Hypex Nilai based amps. I have an option to buy an Aavik I-280, alternatively I will use the latest Hypex modules, I already have Hypex NC-400 based monoblocks.  
A Black Box to Solve Everything
I guess you could try a unity gain tube buffer which is normally used for impedance matching between components, I remember reading somewhere there was even a SS device which emulated the 2nd (and others?) harmonic of a tube and the distortion (ma...

Did this event happen? I would very much like to hear the views of the people who attended. Thanks.

Thanks Lanx, I have seen those two, I may go with the Pulse Mini and get the external linear PSU too which supposedly elevates it to a different level.

I am interested in this but only as a streamer. Has anyone compared it to other streamers, like the Lumin U1/U2 mini or the Holo Red?

Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West?

3D Labs streamer?
Ok with the big players but remember few years back they were newcomers too that hardly anyone knew of. I am all for supporting innovative companies that give you value for money. Of course the risk is you may get a half baked product or later no ... 
3D Labs streamer?
There are so many options! One minute I settle on a Lumin U2 mini, the next is an Auralic, then a used DCS bridge and so on. Then you hear of new ones coming to the market recently and the search goes on. At this rate I will never purchase anythin... 
3D Labs streamer?
@fuzztone Right, that was another streamer I am considering, it is Pi2AES based one, is it not?

Considering buying a used Gryphon Diablo 250
I have been following Gryphon for many years, I have never heard of any issues in almost all their products. Their design and manufacturing quality is second to none. I have no issue buying a used Gryphon product. I was just wondering how the orig...
