How does it sound?
one hell of a dac for sure. the bass has literally come alive!

i like new toys

I can't help but note the model number. Is the "BS" an accident or not? \
BS stands for British Standard

i will get the internal pics eventually but you're right, it's probably quite empty inside. the copper/bronze chassis is quite massively overbuilt (and quite impressive) but i wish they sandblasted the surface instead. the mirror finish is unnecessarily loud for a hi-fi equipment.don't suppose we can get internal pics probably void all kinds of warantees. I won't even say what little is in the Shunyata Hydra thingy... absolutely silly. -
I know it's not the same model, but for some reference, their 50 amp filter with 6 outlets retails for $2200 in US.
i got it for $472. the US importer of isoclean is quite a shark - the 80 amp models goes for $1250 in Hong Kong but $4200 in the US.

finally scrounged up enough money to replace the running springs haley PLC i sold 18 months ago. i was pleasantly surprised by the improvement in sound quality. the music has become much more full-bodied, and the bass has become really punchy. atmosphere's new album finally sounds right to my ears .

i'm glad to know that you're enjoying your whiskeyHey guys, I usually try not to get too personal on forums but I figured here would be the best place to post anything because I do have a ton of respect for the members on this forum. I just wanted to say that after a year of dating my gf I was recently given the boot for the following reason: "people change and I don't think its going to work out." I sort of saw this coming months ahead of time but wanted to say that I have a better understanding for what others on the forum have gone through or are going through when relationships end badly [i hope I am not out of context but..Philodox and Edipisreks come to mind] and that you can welcome me to the club!
I guess what i've learned from everything is how easily you can become attached to someone and after its taken away from you it feels like a part of you is missing. Another thing i've learned is that whisky truly does heal all pain

the lavry da10 is slightly inferior to the slim devices transporter but is a clear step up from a battery powered apogee mini-dac. the benchmark dac is around the same level of the battery powered mini-dac.
i have no experience with truly high end dacs but if you're into PC audio, give the transporter a listen.

tekken 6 and soul calibur 4...enough said.

save your money and spend it on something else. i seriously don't see the need to throw that kind of money on a vcap dock or a product that has such a limited use - your portable rig is already good enough.

in my experience japanese produced albums tend not to be compressed to death...but i would say the japanese version of an american produced album will sound the same as the US version.While I was looking to buy some CDs, I had come across a post somewhere claiming that Japanese versions are mastered in a way that makes them better than other regions.
Simply put, is this true?

nope its not a brochure. technically its a textbook for secondary school students by a publisher that's affiliated with the provincial government...

xhadow is great stuff. good sound and user friendly.

yea, i don't have any single ended sennheiser cable right now to test the headphone out of the dac.
more impressions...
in comparision to the transporter the CEC dac resolved ambient information well - noticeably better than the transporter. i can certainly understand why some people wasn't impressed by the transporter - some of the essence just wasn't there.
