Chua, Thanks! The value that Abel has is OK?

Abel, please keep both for me. I'll arrange on how to deal when Chua confirms. BTW, you mentioned that your Kimber still lose to your Transparent... was your Transparent a factory terminated unit or it was another DIY effort?

And after Star, the ultimate OPAMP will be Supernova! biggrin.gif

Chua, PP is recommending 1uF caps. Abel's is only 0.22. Would that be sufficient? What rating are you using now?

Abel, sure I'm interested but after you said that the Transparent is much better... well... how about doing the Transparent? I mean, what's the price difference anyway?

I'm still thinking whether to get another 2 hdams for my headphone amp out but not sure what the combo should be...
hmm.gif = rclxub.gif

Should it be either:

dac = earth , headamp = 2 X moon
dac = sun , headamp = 2 X earth
dac = earth , headamp = 2 X moon
dac = earth, headamp = 2 X sun (this is the most unlikely combo i think)

shocking.gif shocking.gif shocking.gif

I listen to a wide variety of music from vocals, RnB, trance, instrumental, jazz
Anyone with any suggestions? icon_question.gif

It's advise to mod the power source if plug in 3 discrete opamps, cos some headfier reported that the bass loss some punch with three discrete opamp inside the DAC smile.gif Since you are planning to get a dedicated headamp for your Darth Beyer, i think EARTH in the DAC + LT1364 in the headamp should be ok but of course it might be abit bright smile.gif

I guess with MOON in the DAC + LT1364 in the headamp is better, cos the AD1852 sound's belongs to the PRaT category, bright n lean with MOON's slight thick tonal might balance it ... sometimes I find the EARTH inside DAC abit thin for vocal, that's why I'm getting the MOON trying to give more depth and body to the music biggrin.gif

SUN + MOON free 1 MOON?

I suggest you to take SUN + EARTH free MOON, then u got all sort of sound ready to play around.

For you guys information, pricing for SUN n EARTH are below:

SUN USD30x3.4=RM102

EARTH USD23x3.4=RM78

promotion buy any two discrete opamp (sun, earth and moon) will FOC a piece of MOON discrete opamp. Please take note, last bulk's buy 1 discrete opamp (SUN or EARTH) free 1 EARTH discrete opamp is no more available. Thanks smile.gif

GL, count me in for a Moon... even though I have not even plug in any of the HDAM yet. Will let you know if my fren wanna get it too. Thx


Added on September 17, 2008, 11:29 pmstormspider, based on the Zero group from Head-Fi's feedback, it seems that Earth in DAC and Suns in Headamp is the best combination so far. Seems that most of them agree that the DAC should have a neutral opamp so that it's more balanced and then tune your sound preference at the headamp. Most also agree that the LT1364 at the headamp is already very listenable for the price but paying more for the Suns would have it's return as well.
