Kinki Studio EX-M1
yup!  Time to put the top back on and carry my old amp to the giant pile of unused amps in my closet :PHere's a sexy pic of the amp with no top on.  btw opening it is tricky, ask for help if you need to for some reason.  There's nothing inside to ... 
Kinki Studio EX-M1
Hey guys I finally replaced the preamp/volume control board in my kinki.  They sent me a replacement board at my request.  Just wanted to report that it took less than an hour with me being very careful and taking lots of pics to remember where ev...

D2girls nice, I hope you like the pairing with your jbl.  Did you get inspired to get the jbl from wTching kenrick sounds d videos on YouTube?

Seems like the 2016 and 2025 are also compatible, but the 2032 will last longer because it's thicker and has more battery chemicals inside.  " The CR2016, CR2025, and CR2032 cell batteries all have the same voltage. The diameter of each battery i...

I think it might be cr2025, you can find them anywhere that sells those coin sized watch batteries

I went back to my old folsom tda7297 amp for a while.. wow the downgrade is definitely noticeable, although the folsom is still great and runs cool to the touch because it's only 15watts class ab..  Will switch back to kinki ex m1 soon

Kinki Studio EX-M1
It's funny but my friend said his chord Dave dac was more sensitive to power cord changes than his amps so I've been using my nicest cord, a Grover Huffman with my dac and a diy 3 ft supra anniversary cord with my amp.  Hard for me to tell a diffe... 
Kinki Studio EX-M1
That's been the opposite of my experience..  I usually listen between 10-15 on low gain..  but I do listen very close to speakers...  But it seems to have as much power as my Odyssey kismet 200 watt monoblocks which have like 180000 uf in filter c...

Recommendations Amp, DAC for Kef R900
thanks I did ask mike powell for advice on any other steps I should try to test or isolate the issue.  once I have a day off from work I'll try changing dac output to variable and set it to like 10% so I can test the kinki at levels above 40 witho... 
Recommendations Amp, DAC for Kef R900
Yes, I might change my dac to variable output and reduce the dac volume to like 50% so I can try some of the higher volume settings on the amp without the speakers getting crazy loud.. As it is right now though, it’s pretty easy for me to avoid 16... 
Recommendations Amp, DAC for Kef R900
hah no it happens with both rooms of speakers.. and it's like a 90% reduction in volume in the right channel.  It's ok I will just avoid those volume levels..  don't want to mail in such a big amp.  I mostly listen at lvls 1-15 so it's not too big... 
Recommendations Amp, DAC for Kef R900
Hey Maritine I moved the amp to my q900 home theatre and set it up as a 2 channel setup and I didn't notice any problems playing back that song.  I made a short video https://youtu.be/qw7CIA2acFwIn other news I did notice the right channel sound l...
