Bricasti M3
Last night I tried the M3h single ended headphones output with IEMs and it is death quiet which means the noise and output impedance is really low. This is great to match any kind of headphones. 
Bricasti M3
Here is my previous post corrected. I tried to edit it but the system not allow edits after 30 minutes so I delete it to correct it and re-post it.I own a Bricasti M21, pair of M28s and in another system a M1SE.I got the M3h (headphones amp option... 
Bricasti M3
Sorry, yes. I meant without loosing musicality.Thanks for pointing that to me. BIG MISTAKE on my part.Also, yesterday I tried the headphones output with a HiFiMan HE1000se and Final D8000 headphones. Both are planar magnetic and not easy to drive.... 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
I am sad to say that my tubes also failed while still under warranty. I contacted my dealer and also send an email to Elrog notifying the issue.The tubes were sent back to Elrog and arrived there this week. I expect that as a solid company in our ...

Sorry Smilence, I was not referring to you but to Ken (lasercd) in your post at computeraudiophile.com

My Threshold amplifiers required a very low output impedance from the source (50 ohms) so if I connect the Bricasti or any other source with a higher output impedance I get a slight buzzing sound due to the impedance missmatched.I am running to ba...

If you ardred the most expensive ones then you ordered the Supreme not the Gold. The Supreme Slow Blow Small are $59.95 each and are the most expensive ones within the Small size.You need three .5mA Small Slow Blow for the inside and one 1 amp Sma...

Hi David,Before the digital section power supply upgrade I was normally using Min 2 but after the upgrade I find myself using more the Min 0.The gold fuses will give you a bit warmer sound compared to a more open and airy (not bright)sound of the ...

Glory,It a totally different price point and market. The M1 is a $8,500 unit where the PWD MKII currently reatiles for $4,000 (over priced IMO) and is already talked for $2,500 which is the on going price for a mint unit.The potential buyers are t...

This is a follow up of my initial impressions of the Bricasti M1 DAC.I moved the Bricasti to my bedroom system where I have my Stax 727II/SR-009 combo and my Woo WA-5LE. The Bricasti sound was excellent since the beginning but for some time to my ... 
Please advise: Upgrade Theta Gen V or PS Audio PW
Thanks Jfeldt.That is the same with mine. I did a lot of chassis and cover damping and I also decoupled the power supply boeard from the chassis mounting posts with some rubber isolators. All that minimized the noise and I can only hear it if I ge... 
Please advise: Upgrade Theta Gen V or PS Audio PW
No I have not. But I have talked to two different people that work on DAC reapring and modifying and both have said that is a known issue that can be reduce (As I did) but not eliminated.One of them mentioned the humbuster as a potential solution ...
