Cool! Let me know how much it will be. How did you get your hands on Kimber bare cables anyway? And what gauge size are they? I'm also interested in doing a DIY on the Asylum Cable but the nearest place I know with the components is in Sim Lim Tower. I don't travel to SG so often so still waiting for an opportunity do go so can pick up the parts.

Hi chua, how's your component? Is it the leg bengkok already? The unit were shipped to me with this packaging, then It was in good condition so I ship out like that with bubble wrap wrapping the whole thing. so sorry!

I think best person to answer might be stormspider cos last time he quite frequent to yuheng's house last time, dunno currently la! He can bring over ZERO with OPA earth to do head to head review with BOA testing the analog output cos ZERO's head out is no fight to BOA's blush.gif

You mean no fight as headphone amp? I want to use it as dac.
If boa is better then no point to change to zero dac.

Depends on what u want. Have u check boa can do like what ZERO do or not.

For usb connection, just grab 1 converter will do, and ZERO become full function dac.

The question here is which DAC offers you the BEST value for money. do check out, and let us know.

Abel busy working on his power cables?

Talking about power cables, I came across these on Head-Fi that claims to perform on par or better than US$200 cables. Uses Furukawa cables and the construction of the plugs are impressive! They're made in Taiwan. Copper plug model is US65, silver plated one is US95. Anyone wanna do a bulk on the 65 one?

boa is great for dac and it is portable not to mention it use the same dac chips as pico dac
but since u pairing with heedcanamp i believe it need more sufficient power and lower floor signal
anyhow best to test which is suitable for u afterall hearing is believing
