By the way, was the Neotech silver cable you mention using for ICs of the the 6 nines pure Ohno continuous cast variety?
Nice writeup - glad the weather cooperated!Very interesting about the power supply. It makes me wonder how much I'm cheating the experience by not shipping the Red Top car battery with the DAC. Charles says that's the only battery he's used, so he can't comment on the differences between his recommendation and other SLAs. I haven't used it with a car battery either.
(Digression #1: Some time ago I was working with battery powered Tripath amps. To my ears, the sound improved quite a bit when some capacitance was added after the battery, before the line reached the board. As magusha points out in the first post this reduces the impedance of the power supply and improved the power delivery speed. The cap bank was made of various values and types of caps. The overall value came to something around 13,000 mfd with some film caps added as final bypass.)
It doesn't *prove* anything, actually.
I just want to clarify "for the record" that the opinions expressed here should not be interpreted beyond their originating context.
Couldn't this phrase be applied to almost everything posted here at AC?
Just out of curiosity, could the Burson Buffer be converted for use as a headphone amp?
