As someone who basically gave Doug all creative control with the requirement of the amp being quiet with jh16s, I was more than ecstatic to receive the custom amp Doug built for me. He does good work It sounds great but is also pretty to look at. Understated effortless elegance was how Julie described it. I'd agree with her. Can't go wrong with something from Doug 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMoney Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Can you post a pic of it, CJ? I'd love to see what he cooked up for you. My post was actually in jest. Doug has had something cooking for me for a while now that I'm looking forward to finally taking delivery of next week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsavitsk Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 You are all too nice It is about 9.5" x 6.25" x 2.25". Input is USB (using the Amanero USB card) and output is transformer coupled and XLR only (because of the transformers, using XLR to RCA converters does not change or diminish the signal). It uses the Wolfson WM8741 with my output stage which is basically the same circuit as the DSHA. The model is the Walnut v5 DAC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsavitsk Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 $2200 + market rate for wood more exotic that what I can get at the local wood store. Things are available basically whenever - I decided that there was no way to compete with the Schiits of the world and I never really made enough of anything to benefit from economies of scale, so everything is bespoke. Depending upon complexity and how busy things are, that usually means 6 to 8 weeks. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n_maher Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Beautiful, Doug. [edit]Evidently I like this DAC so much I forgot I'd replied already. :facepalm: But I do dig the new business model. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
