I have not really compared the sound that way, and anyway any subjective views are unwelcome here anyway (as per this forum, everything sounds the same). I replaced Spring 1 with the new Spring 3 on my office loudspeaker system. Spring 2 is still in my home headphone system (Schiit Jotunheim + Sennheiser HD800). Office headphone system is T+A HA 200 + Solitaire combo.
All running at DSD256 from ASDM7EC modulator.
Hi @Miska
Does Holo designer use HQPlayer?
Have you discussed with Jeff Z about if he used your open source design when designing the DSD section of his Holo DACs?
