$259 for Sennheiser HD 600 https://Amazon.com/dp/B00004SY4H

With 139dB SNR, the measurebaters would be happy:D

Just curious how much more (700mW/350mW) do you think it would be with a 5Amp power supply instead of the 2.4A psu that the Zen-can was shipped with ?

I was only using 6 Volts into the Zen-Can amp as an extreme test to hear the noise floor at max gain and max volume. In real world listening volume levels there is no audible noise floor.

"Solved 50 Years Ago":p

Is the only internal difference between the Regular Zen-Can amp and the Signature version, the upgraded capacitors ?

The first few for sale after the first DROP had a sticker over the original Logo.

It definitely has a less warm sound signature compared to the regular Zen-Dac V1 / V2, which sound exactly the same. Signature PCB V2.1

Yep, same for me. I had this problem with a cheap 4.4mm interconnect cable between the Dac and the Can amp, I still use this cheap cable but I have to bend it a certain way and it's fine if I don't move it :)

Yes, it's the Amp, same with mine at +18, with max volume, a slight noise floor hiss at full gain extremes. 4 Volt Balanced input and 6V when switched to variable on my Zen-Dac.

On full gain(+18) with the hd600 or Ananda 8 o'clock is loud, 9 is too loud with pain starting. I'd say 12 o'clock would be destructive.

I have to say, the subtle X-Bass on the Zen-Can amp is really excellent, it works so well with nearly all music and headphones, practically for me with the HD600 and Ananda. In comparison, all other Bass boosts are way too strong for almost all music genres. This 5V PSU may not be great at...

On these new balanced Dac's it's great to see more companies starting to remove balanced form the 4.4mm headphone output. They do this for our convenience.:facepalm:

Amazon U.K. collects the VAT for each different E.U. country. 20% Vat taxes are included in this price - this will be slightly higher for some E.U. countries. Amazon even collect the much smaller U.S. state sales tax for each different state, if you order From the U.S.

Is this a new trend, it's Balanced - but the 4.4mm headphone output is still only a lower powered single ended Amp stage. Surely a good percentage of consumers are going to be tricked by this.

Many people say the 660s driver is the same as the 58x but it's actually the hd700 driver. This is the marketing speak from 2012 for the HD700 "A new patent-pending feature is the special shape of the gauze, which continues the curved lines of the diaphragm. The resulting curvature reduces the...
