Some things are worth the wait, plus that’s not a lot of money when you think about it. I am having an amp built. No date promised , but that’s ok because it’s only a couple of months away . I got on the tail end of the 2021 queue , there are a few pieces ahead of me. Mines in progress, I’ve seen pics of the casework and it looks awesome. If you stay on Dons list someone may grow impatient and drop out .... |
I own an Axiom II passive and I understand your comment. In my experience, ever, a thin sound could reflect how the sound of your source is is playing nice, or not, with the rest of your setup.. FWIW, as I improved my transport and DAC, the Axiom II sounded better. I plug it in occassionally and listen for a few days and then switch back to tubes. Just like the texture and body I get with tubes. Dsper.

Here’s an interesting read for you good folks on the Don Sachs/Supratec fences. But you need to read the whole thing to see what the OP ended up buying and why. Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go?
And here’s a pre amp for those on a budget or you want to get something to hold you over until you get that one. It also comes with a plethora of dac inputs that some preamps lack and costs as little as a good pair of interconnects. Parasound NewClassic 200 Pre Stereo preamplifier with built-in DAC

@oddiofyl yes well originally Don's preamp was the end game. So I feel like I'll wait and see if that happens, the question is what to do in the meantime. Gotta be better than waiting on Decware haha |
@oddiofyl I am also considering Supratek as it has adjustable gain and the Sachs has even more than my current (16db which is way too much). |
