Does anyone have any experience fixing an OG liquid carbon. One channel does not work at anything above very low volume. Feb 7, 2024

      respect for folks who compare DACs with lucid comparison notes - Its so hard with headphones to compare DACs.

        @wbass now that I have a bit more context for stuff I think it could be an interesting listen for you. I do emphatically not care for it, but the staging has idiosyncrasies that could work for some, and now that I'm paying more attention to transient response as opposed to just voicing, I feel like that's another way they seem to stand out vs other SS amps.

        It'd not make sense to compare Piety to Unity since the Piety is stylised, but betwen the Magni 3+ and the Unity I feel like there's a bit of a pronounced gulf, and both are arguably similar amps in intent. Mainly treble smoothness and sense of driver control with the Senn HD600s. But I could also be so far up my own bunghole at this point that the differences are exaggerated in my head.

        Good speakers are cheat. Doing DAC comparison with average planar headphones is badass.

      The Yggdrasil OG A2 has great space and depth. But the only dimension that matters is the exact 16 inches that can fit in the cabinet

      Enjoying my non-Urd CD player as I don't have to worry if it sounds better or not.

        Occasionally I still enjoy my PC optical drive for playing CDs. It works fine. And I don't have to worry that I don't even have a hifi stack set up now although yes, I wish I did.

        I like new gear as much as anyone else. My favorite thing about my CD player is the previous owner lost the remote, so I rarely skip songs and enjoy the whole album. The irony is the lost remote was a cause of hesitation while buying it.

      Listening to The Cure on the newly obtained LH labs pulse infinity. So hard to pick their best album.

        Yeah its an old DAC but still pretty good I think. I wanted to compare to a new DAC but haven't gotten around to doing it

      That feeling where you don't know if you missed an amazing deal or if you saved yourself a lot of money.

        it's a slippery slope, first you score a deal on the headphones and then your current gear is inadequate for your "great new headphones"
