hi. did you get any problems get it started?
I have this kit too. and it just don't start up.

 

[Soxen]

No problems, start first time.

Try checking all connections, there are a few....
Normally if it won't start it's the control connections....

 

[Soxen]

If you bought from Dantimax (Mikkel) He will be very helpfull if you ask... Even though he is sometimes slow on answering 🙂)

 

[AudioSan]

happens after that. yes its from dantimax. but mikkel
do not answer. i have been waiting for a week now.

Is there any circuit to improve the digital signal output?Or just use the build-in DAC + tube filter?

 

[Soxen]

For now it's the built in DAC and a filter, but there is a DIY DAC in the plans..

 

[Zoran]

Very cooly...
keep the good work going on

 

[jtsaudio]

Sweet!

When are you going to post all the details of how she sounds?

 

[AudioSan]

which DAC are you planing to use?
i thinking to use a DAC from ADlabs.

 

[Soxen]

First of all I haven't decided on a DAC yet, as I believe the sound needs to be well known before doing any changes.

The sound from this CD is great, the perspective is very wide and open, the mid has what I would call a passion for female voices, they are reproduce in a neutral and non colored way, which I really enjoy. The overall sound is among the best I've ever heard in this pricerange. ( Abt. USD 800,-)

The sound is wide, open and clear, it's an "In room" sound. You get the sense of "live" performance when listening to CD's (Well recorded CD's)

I'm a great fan of a wide variety of music and this CD really has no limit's it will play anything you want with body and soul 😎

Actually I find myself listening to more Cd's now than before, when LP's where my favourit. I have a Ariston RD40, mounted with a REGA RB300 and an ortofon 2M Orange This combo is spot on for me 🙂


AS SOON AS I FIND THE TIME I WILL POST A LOT OF PICTURES 😀
(Of the whole setup including the CD...)
