    Making a Case/Enclosure for the Khadas Tone Board

    Seems that KTB aluminum case back in stock at audiophonics.fr so I placed my order. I thought that why would I mess with PLA materials since there is solid aluminum at the same price approximately.

    Thanks for response. What other amps have you tried and failed comparing to Atom?

    Review and Measurements of New JDS Labs Atom Headphone Amp

    Has Atom sufficient power to drive HD800 efficiently? I don't mean measurements of the amp, I mean while driving the cans maintaining the dynamics, detail and imaging?

    Review and Measurements of Sabaj D5 DAC & Amp

    I buy equipments (amp or dac) to use with my headphones only. I don't think that this hump will be a major failure. As I mentioned earlier, I was ready to buy Sabaj D5 but my idsd micro bl amp section has way way more power than D5's. The only thing I want to get rid of was old Burr Brown chip...

    Review and Measurements of Sabaj D5 DAC & Amp

    I was talking to them last week and they told me to wait for the end of August for 20% discounted price. However, I placed an order for Khadas Tone Board since it's 1/3 price of D5's discount price. And the funny thing is people who tried both say that D5's sound signature boring while Khadas...

    Measurements of RME ADI-2 DAC and Headphone Amp

    Thanks a lot. And yes, same thing quite possible on R2R DACs. Results on paper doesn't sound same in practice apparently.

    Review and Measurements of New JDS Labs Atom Headphone Amp

    Is there anyone who has idsd micro bl and Atom both to drive HD800 at the same time? I actually placed an order for Atom but then cancelled it for now. Since there is no issue to drive the headphones with idsd micro bl in turbo mode. However, if someone explains any major advantage to have Atom...

    Measurements of RME ADI-2 DAC and Headphone Amp

    So you say that you have idsd micro bl, Atom and D50s now and Atom+D50s combination sounds better than idsd? You say that you feel like the difference is "pretty real", alright but how? What differences in sound did you notice that better?

    SMSL SU-8 Version 2 Balanced DAC

    When they arrive just plug in decent headphones if you have some and listen to some good recording songs, please. I know measurements are important. However, how great a unit sounds vital "at least" for me. Thanks.

    Sabaj D5 vs RME Adi Dac 2

    Well, I got in touch with @SMSL-Mandy to buy Sabaj D5 but no response yet. Maybe I should wait for a bit more to get Adi Dac 2 even though it's 2x price of Sabaj. I don't know. But I know a thing, there is no competition between these two companies as a after sale support power. When you google...

    Sabaj D5 vs RME Adi Dac 2

    Thank you for all your responses. I've read all posts but still there is no answer why people in here tell me that rme sounds a lot better than idsd micro black if a well engineered dac is roughly identical to other. According to your words, "being a lot better than other (as dac only)" idea is...
