@T.M.Noble Any intention to send in Asgard 3 for testing? I have seen a lot of those being bought and they look good, would be curious to see how it stacks up against the Magni considering they are both SE.
I am curious about this statement:
In my experience, the ES100 (2.5 or 3.5) does not hiss with my Andromeda V1, which hiss with most sources. So at least in my case, I don't have that issue.
Oh yeah, definitely. I said up front it was probably confirmation bias, I’m sure it’s not audible, but between balanced vs unbalanced, and zeos saying the 1/4 Jack was warmer, must’ve gone to my head
“I was pleased to not only see almost double the output power, but also lower noise levels too compared to unbalanced.” - Amir
“Not surprised to hear the XLR is better, came to that conclusion my self also” - me
These two sentences are not at odds, maybe I am misunderstanding you.
