I'm quite happy with the fact that there are owners here that are willing to case it up themselves.

Agreed rclxms.gif Though, I really do wish I have a better tool to do the job... laugh.gif it is still a mess, well I can make more of it in the future.

Just got my pcm2704 from chchyong89, I would say this little DAC really shine for its price. I bet you can get anything closer with the price of below RM100.

Basically, the sound is much much cleaner and detailed compared to onboard soundcard. I never test it with my DDM, but my aged sony MDR-EX85 is enough to tell the difference. Vocal is clean with fuller body though sometime might sound a bit dry. (Maybe used to my prodigy HD2)

Staging is okay, bass is deep but roll off slightly too early for my taste. Overall this card really good for replacing onboard soundcard, or even some entry level Cxxxxx soundcard. Excel in vocal and jazz. smile.gif

This is because it's unamped, get a cheap fiio will make it shine even more.

Ah crap, I am absolutely dry at the moment. I'd have to wait till December. The seller PM'ed me about the arrival, but I was devastated that I am actually very frickin' dry on cash at the moment. Living off my parents now. laugh.gif

Hope the seller can re-stock by December. biggrin.gif

Yeah, will try it out and see how's the improvement. So far its good, i will say its really good, for the price it takes.
This little SC really synergy well with my Sony MDR-EX85, makes my earphone come to live again. The mid is slightly recessed with my sony before this, with the curve towards slight rock,, now its quite neutral.

I am enjoying music from this just as much as i enjoy the music from my HD2.. no joke. thumbup.gif
