I just received my Dack 2.0 DAC and it sounds sweet and smooth after a few days of burning in. Yet, I am not too sure on its bass because it doesn't have the punch that my Assemblage ver 2.7 is delivering (after changing all the caps to Panasonic FC and the output opamp to OPA627BP).
I saw the Dack 2.0 has two output caps in parallel. One 3.3uF Auricap with the red lead pointing to the output RCA socket and one 0.1uF Sonicaps with the -ve to the output RCA socket. My questions: -
1. Does it mean that it is adopting the Black Gate E-Cap nonpolar concept - with two caps with oppositing poles in parallel? What are the pros for this arrangement? Or is it a manufacturing fault?
2. I've tried to parallel another Jansen Copper Tube 0.1uF to the output caps and the bass immediately becomes more punchy. What would it be IF I disconnect the Sonicaps 0.1uF and change it to Jansen? I don't want to do it immediately to void my warranty.
3. If I want more punch, should I replace the sonicap or auricap with original value or change the value of caps?
Thanks
Sunny
