tomolo i will be at Bukit Jalil maybe i can drop by ...

i really like the Marantz 63 KI sound ... if i got $$$ i go for it hehehe
what i remeber the KI sound more forward n thick vocal even compare to Zero + DY2000

those who like vocal go for dy2000 or LT1057

those who want to get dy2000 can go to www.diykits.com.hk but all all is used one

Added on July 6, 2008, 10:59 amif like that u go for opa627 if u like Orchestra and OST bcoz Dy2000 the sound more relax n slow.wut i found stock opamp less detail staging more narrow.but for me opa2604 not really like tube feel dy2000 the seperation are better and detail also better vocal more forward

actually sound are very subjective nothing is the best or the worst
if suite ur ear even RM 5 rca say very good, is depends ur ear level the higher its ur wallet is thinner hehehe agree ????

wut i audit for soo long dy2000 sound very musical is not very warm or even not very dynamic for orchestra or jazz i think can try for LT1364 or LM4562 but i dunno how opa627 perform on jazz or orchestra i think we make a small TT section for Zero DAC onwer ....

i got find some DY2000 metal but it cost abt RM 100 + per pc

abt RM 50+ per pcs i use on DAC part
headphone can use also but iam not headphone kaki

yup ...

see urself better get the DAC n listen first

wut i listen .... i found coax are better sound smoother .... when try optical piano notes are rather fake compare to caox vocal coax are smoother , when run optical cable when vocal (female) at the high freq is not soo smooth abit rough trying this Zero with ccschua soundstage 1.5 with my speaker hehehe chua just borrow my coax kena poison already he wanna try for his setup n see

that day trying Grado SR60 with ccschua sound really not bad warm sounding wut i compare with HD600 first time audit on headphone feel wanna buy headphone .. one new shop just open today behind PGRM inside the condo got shop lot the shop name call YP Pro Sound tell selling Audio Technica , beyerdynamic and AAD.

i audit 3 model of headphone, Audio Technica W1000 , Audio Technica AD700 and beyerdynamic dunno wut 660 model ... headphone amp using Audio Technica amp maybe all still new no yet run in all sound harsh

found beyerdynamic sound quite smooth but seem hard to push than check the spec is abt 200ohm ... wow

near Taman Maluri Jaya Jusco (not maluri kepong)

if u want budget power cord can try for Supra LoRad 2.5 i think brand new abt RM 80 per meter without termination ....

that day my fren bought 1.5m ready made (acoustic system) amcorp mall i think he buy less than RM 200.
those at hifi forum sell is consider high end model even got some model is abit low range.
like me i just bought a Transparent Power cable already cost more than RM 300. depends wut u need
wut i found power cord had more different on tube amp is given low floor noise , better seperation and even more smoother sound.

lol ccschua say me poison him hehehe

MS Avant sound more dynamic compare Carnival
Avant using Metal Dome tweeter
Carnival is Soft Dome

i plan for the upgrade soon but i still source for the Elna Cerafine or Silmic that hard to get in malaysia just only can find in oversea if cant find i think i will get for either rubycon ZL or ZA series or sanyo oscon or just find some cap that is low impedance

for upgrade the cap is not hard but how to optimize filter thats too technical for me

cap got 2 type non-polar n polar cap

means like those Solen is non-polar means dont have + or - mostly u can fine at crossover for me i recommend Mundorf Mcap's
if u got $$$ go for Silver Oil but this can cost more than ur Zero hehehehe
