    Koth I still am using your adcom :)
    Have also auditioned Holo spring (different set of issues but not outright bad)
    Its dacs like these (holo/jade) that make even a Gungnir Multibit A2 sound lot better

    I found the same thing with the Onyx using USB. Use SPDIF - it’s much, much better.

    @gurubhai and who's to blame for that :)
    OTOH, it's entirely possible usb is the bottleneck here. Given how dramatically a good spdif source can elevate capable dacs, I believe jade may have more to offer. Yet, jade's 'loudness on' kinda sound is probably inherent

    @gurubhai: All this fuss for 50s-60s Bollywood music :).
