I should have these in about 4-6 weeks, right Norman?

MSRP?

I am looking for a USB DAC for headphone use. Something like this might end up replacing my Millet Max Hybrid headphone amp too...

We will keep it under $600, our US model will select to use Mundorf capacitor (10000uF/63V x 3 pcs).
Please contact Cryo parts to get more information after the end of April.

The pic is of the Fiona in my smallest demo room (I have 10 demo rooms). Rest of system is Apple TV, Arte Forma Emily Lite amp, and Dayens speakers. Killer system on the cheap!

The piece on the lowest shelf is the new Pearl preamplifier, as soon as Norman sends me the new amps(he is sending me a stereo amp and his new mono blocks), I'll have that up an running in one of the bigger rooms.

Peace,
Lee

Further we test Nichicon and Mundorf capacitor in digital filter parts, we like the Nichicon capacitor sound performance. Mundorf capacitor is good component, we will use them in some other stuff.

We select better quality transformer in our new version. They will be arrived US in next week. Please contact Cryo parts in US market.
