What you lack of wit you make up for with crude profanity - very tiring to say the least.

Focal Utopia headphones...with Beryllium driver
Kevin measured 800picovolts from a screened room. Audibly a worthwhile outlay as well.

Focal Utopia headphones...with Beryllium driver
Instead of using a simple LM7815/7915 circuit feeding the LV lines it can be replaced with Kevins Golden Reference Low Voltage power supply (GRLV) which has much less noise.

Focal Utopia headphones...with Beryllium driver
Yeah, the O2 on anything less than a KGSSHV is not optimum, you really need to experience them on a TOTL amplifier and DAC. I'm definitely not hearing thin or bright with the 009 through my gear, this is definitely an area I'm most sensitive too and cannot tolerate in any shape or form. Has anybody heard the Utopia direct from a Chord Dave? this combo has my attention.

TKD 4CP-601 & 4CP-2500 4-gang volume pot and PCB GB
^I had a pleasant exchange with PCBwin, the boards were very nice and at least 1/3 less the cost of Seed and PCBway.

Not being Nostradamus, this could very well be the writing on the wall Hifiman, it’s quite wide exposure, hopefully it will all backfire.

That’s impressive work Marc. 71°C is very close to my F5X with an ambient of 22°C. ....goes to google “seek thermal”.

Actually he has every right, if someone’s stupid enough to pay the price so be it. I don’t have any issue with the asking price as I will never in a million years contemplate buying this crap.
