Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
Anybody using the GAN1 with subwoofers?  I was hoping to go that route with my Lumin U1 Mini, but the Lumin only has digitals outs, so I'd need to add a DAC between the Lumin and my subwoofers.  It looks like the Node has a mono subwoofer out, an...

@yyzsantabarbara Yeah, I saw that. As you mentioned in that post, I needed to turn on Custom Re-Sampling and set DSD64/128 to 176.4. But that wasn’t enough to get my U1 Mini working. I thought others might be interested in the rest of the settings...

Just got done working out the kinks of setting up my Lumin U1 Mini with the GAN1. Here’s the pieces that aren't obvious: turn on Custom Re-Sampling. For DSD128, DSD64, 44.1kHz PCD -- all 3 of these should be set to 176.4kHz. All other set to Nati...

@yyzsantabarbara Thanks for the info.  My Lumin is the U1 Mini with SBooster power supply, and my existing cord is 1m.  I'm guessing it will work, but was thinking about upgrading that cord anyway.  Hopefully I'll have time next weekend to play w...

@yyzsantabarbara  "you need a 1.5m BNC to RCA 75 ohm coaxial cable." This is oddly specific, I'd think any 75 ohm BNC to RCA would work.  Did they actually say that, or is 1.5m just what you ended up buying?    
HELP!!!! Newbie looking for a decent 2 channel power amp in the $1,000 range
Another rec for an Odyssey in this price range.  If you're within driving distance of Portland OR, I've got a Stratos I'm considering selling (no box, so would be looking at local pickup).     
Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"?
Folks, the sign clearly says "Do not feed the Trolls."  Keep feeding them, they'll keep coming back. Thanks to those who have done their best to steer the thread back on topic. Count me among those who don’t find (at least some) monitors "cold a...

Has anyone here tried the IFI streamer with a USB hard disk? Curious how the sound quality would be with the GAN1. Also curious about Lumin U1/U2 Mini with Leedh vs Innous Zen/Mini. By all accounts the Innuos has better sound at full output, wond... 
Portable amp for Beyerdynamic T1?
I ended up buying a Topping G5, thanks, @yage.  Looked like just what I wanted.  
Portable amp for Beyerdynamic T1?
Thanks to everyone for their comments. Turns out I've got both my own personal pair of sony NC phones (MDR-ZX750BN) and my company-supplied Bose QC phones.  I'll take both on my next trip and see which works better on the plane.  I've used the So... 
Portable amp for Beyerdynamic T1?
I have the T1 version 3.  It will be more business travel than personal, from here on the west coast to corp HQ in Boston, so a longer flight and often a stop (most of the nonstops are redeye, which I'm not doing).  There will be significant time... 
Portable amp for Beyerdynamic T1?
Oh, and the source will either be my laptop or iPhone.  So built-in DAC will be valuable.  
Portable amp for Beyerdynamic T1?
Oh, yeah -- budget is $250ish. And tubes are out, too fragile for this purpose.    
Need a high-WAF stand solution
@backwash -- Sadly, I am out in Portland OR.  Would love to come see it, but that's not really in the cards.  Thanks for the response.
