DAC Hacks & Mods: Zhaolu Oritek DAC

His DAC, with his battery power, was the best digital I heard back then. I hope he's doing well. I still have his DAC. He showed me the difference in op amps versus discrete(is that the word?) components. He also modified a RGR preamp for me.

I went to Ori's house a number of times. His interconnects were good, and his most expensive interconnect was clearly better than his cheaper one. I own his pair of Genesis(not that company we normally think of) speakers with the inverted dome and passive radiator. He modified my RGR preamp. He also modified my Dynaco stereo 70, which to me, sounded as good as Lamm research, except maybe in the bass. He made it single-ended.

I consider him to be a genius, and I hope he's doing well.
