  1. I wasn't really in listening mode yesterday at Axpona, but did listen to both an Aeon and an Ether 2 from the GS-X mini, and it sounded good. I still didn't care for the Aeon but liked the Ether 2, and the GS-X mini seemed to drive it really well.

    Burson Audio V5i opamps

    The cap is probably the erroneous V+ to V-... Yours doesn't have all the magical components touted in the marketing hype?

    The Multi Amp aka Dynalo Mk2

    I could consider it. I don't have any cases, so would have to have one made. If you wanted the TKD version, I would have to get a board and the TKD pot as well. As well as all of the other parts (not a problem), so not cheap. What if you don't like it?

    No. Snake oil.

    The Multi Amp aka Dynalo Mk2

    Not being able to build one yourself is a problem. As for one already built, they rarely, if ever, come up for sale. Commercially, the closest thing(s) to it are Headamp Gilmore Lite or Justin's new Headamp GSX Mini Balanced. Note that the Gilmore Lite is single-ended only.

    Where are you seeing the reversed plugs at? Or is this because of the 0.2ohm impedance (without the box)?

    So no drill bit recommendations from Shars (catalog link in previous post)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Technical Assistance/Advice Thread

    I (or actually, my wife) picked one of these up for me on Friday. I also got a set of drill bits from them (https://www.shars.com/media/flip/2018master/mobile/index.html#p=2) the 404-2201, which I am thinking I should have gotten some better ones, maybe one of the cobalt ones, or at least the HSS 6542. Any recommendations from what you see there? I probably also don't need anything larger than 3/8", so dropping down to a 22 piece set shouldn't be an issue. I haven't used either yet.

    Well, I feel the ban stick coming. Posted on HF regarding the FCC Part 15 not being applicable. Also called jamato8 out as a known shill from years ago...

    I presume this is kosher; not a personal email. Not even sure why I got this... I bought a pair of Massdrop HE4XXs... oh wait, I think I did buy a pair of IEMs direct (and returned them)...

    Looks nice! Enjoy!

    Interesting in Fang’s letter that he touts FCC testing as one reason his shit couldn’t possibly be dangerous. IIRC, FCC testing is for Part 15, which only covers RF emissions (and isn’t applicable to this?). Total BS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
