One thing i like zero dac bcos it is more suitable for non tech persons ( like me ) , can just plug and play with op amps at any time.
I have an entry level tube pre amp that landed somewhere for more than 2 months, still in the process of " reinstating back to default state ". Sometimes it is quite hard to depend on somebody else to do IT for us. They may not have the time anyway. While still waiting, I bought another Tube amp as a replacement, which might not be needed in the first place.

QUOTE(GodLuvSxS @ Oct 8 2008, 01:36 AM) Guys, those who are using foobar2000 as playback software, please do consider go and download the latest V0.9.5.6, to my ears it's sound more balanced, vocals are more natural, and less fatigue listening to, go and download ... software does plays a difference too  Hi Brother God, I have a Q for you, hope you do not mind. My Earth that came with the extended wire ( forgot the exact name ) , sometimes not careful would hit the circuit board and cause a small spark . I used TACK IT to stick the earth to the casing. Would there be an overheating problem ? Do you mind to share a better way to seal it ? 10Q. p/s : I think i have missed this important message earlier . But Zero dac does offer the solution " Category 2. Very good players which are normally of standard quality, but definitely worth effort of lampization. After tuning and lampization - they will be fantastic. If you are lucky to own them - do it. If you want to try - buy them, usually for next to nothing - and enter very very close to Nirvana.

QUOTE(abel @ Oct 8 2008, 11:18 AM) that extended wire is ground cable u need to solder it to the ground of the PCB board and not casing bcoz if u put to the casing is call earth not ground u can solder it to ur RCA ground. at the board .... wut i found if not ground that cable sound abit dull n blur  Thank you for your reply, Bro Abel. I take that into consideration. But the ground cable looks rather short if the Earth omp is on sitting position ( what i mean as a Tower without the case cover ? ) This post has been edited by SKY 1809: Oct 8 2008, 12:43 PM

QUOTE(RAV4 @ Dec 10 2008, 09:04 PM) Chua busy with buffer stage mod.  Chua, I remember that you were using the SoundStage 1.5 valve amp. How do you like it? Saw someone selling a used unit for RM500, which is quite tempting. I do not think that guy is selling that unit at that price. He just wants to get attention for other products that he intends to sell. In a way, is to spoil the market.
