After testing about 15 design IV for ES9038PRO, I selected this design.
Oh, this is my favorite design ever. It won all because:
Its sound: great, the music space is very deep.
The treble is very detailed, slender and very sparkling, magical
Mid is very warm, inspirational, more inspirational, especially vocal of the singer is very sweet, slow.
The bass is deep and powerful, but does not cause headaches. Hear long time not tired
Yes: music space filled the room, the sound treble, mid, bass. All sounds are very balanced, amazing dynamics.
No noise, no hum, no poping relay- click mouse when you switch off DAC. Love.
The speakers on the speakers will not listen a sound like: è è, ù ù .... or hum, hum, u u..at low frequencies below 20Hz - other designs i can see it.
Thank you very much! And I hope you love it like me!

Quanghao,
Thanks for finishing output design.
I want to confirm my order:
DAC; plus 2 "super V/I" PCBs(left/right); plus PCB for "T-super IV"
I have already sent $500US. Please let me know total amount for order including shipping to USA.
Also can you post parts list for the new t-super I/V?
Thank you,

QuangHao,
These 500 ohm Zout is in balanced or SE mode?
And your sound impresions? Balanced or SE?. With or without preamplifier?

HI!
under 500 Ohm Z-outs with Tube 6DJ8 in SE mode
The sound with SE without PRE. output direct to Ampli.

Hi!
not worry about it, i will post some day!
thanks
How difficult would this be for a first time DIYer with very limited electronics knowledge?
Is it more of a "buy all the parts and screw them together" or do you need to get into soldering etc?
may be i can built the kit, and you get all. _ so the DAC finis , you listen it!
thanks your advice!

I'm listening DAC with lundal LL168 transformer outputs from previously HQ Reference ES9018 and that sound amazingly
Waiting for list of output IV.
All the best!
