| What's the greatest bargain in DAC's these days? After_hrs,Yeah, I have to say that I'm not the world's biggest fan of Music Hall's stuff. I have their CD 25.2 CD player, which I now use as just a transport out to my DAC. It's fine for what it is, but when the remote died Music Hall was of no he... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Tubegroover,Thank you so much for the kind comments. Out of the house right now with the amp playing a CD on repeat for some easy burn in time. Again, will communicate impressions when things start to settle down. | |
| What's the greatest bargain in SET these days? Just letting everyone know that the Audio Note Kit 1 is built and burning in. Sonic impressions will follow!! | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Pdreher: Thank you! | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Jetrexpro: It was pretty cool. Actually, the first big thrill just plunking the thing down on my component cabinet next to the turntable. It's quite a visually beautiful thing in and of itself. My non-audiophile (but music loving) wife and daughte... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Brownsfan: Thanks! Will do! | |
| What's the greatest bargain in DAC's these days? I have narrowed the field to wanting a DAC with variable level analogue outputs. In the sub $1000 category, I see the Parasound ZDAC v.2 and the Jolida FX Mark III. Anybody have thoughts about the relative merits of these two units? | |
| What's the greatest bargain in DAC's these days? Johnjc,I can't find references to either of those DAC's. Can you provide any links? | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... The amp is finished and making music! I'll be posting more specific sonic impressions once the amp is burned in, but I wanted everyone to know. | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Well, the amp is entirely built. Voltages check out fine, so this weekend I'll be hooking it into my rig and checking out the sound, making sure there's no hum issues, etc! | |
| What's the greatest bargain in DAC's these days? Well, if the Parasound Z-DAC is as good as some of you say it is, it should be a steal! And that Simaudio Moon 100D is also very well priced at Music Direct. But just to point out that the really cheap one at Music Direct is the v.1. The v.2 is al... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Beginning test phase. Rechecking interwiring connections and then power up without tubes to try some voltage checks. Woo-hoo! | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Roxy -The Assembly Manual says at the end, "The sound of the kit1 will change quite a bit over the first month as it burns in you will also smell the transformers burning in this is normal."So it sounds like you're on target. | |
| What's the greatest bargain in SET these days? Nyaudio98,I don't have personal experience with them, but the various Primaluna integrated amps seem to be a good match with the De Capo's from what I've read. Look at the used market for bargains there.I also thought that the Manley gear I had (I... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Jetrexpro:Hi!I've had a busy work week and have only had sporadic time here and there to work on the kit. :-(I've also offered to help Brian to edit the final version of the assembly manual for the Kit 1 2014 Edition, which is due to be ready for ... |
