Check This Out!


Just wanted to make audiophile community aware, anyone looking for a DAC must check out Galle DAC from Cinnamon Audio. The feedback from two recent buyers was very inspiring and they bought the DAC after listening.

"The Galle DAC: we’ve crafted a DAC that delivers a natural, lush sound with remarkable dynamics and harmonic richness"

Cutting edge R2R, 27 bit ladder, laser cut the resistors to hit 0.1% tolerance; installed directly into the circuit board for a bargain price of $12,995

You can hear this DAC at Capitol Audio, courtesy @gestalt audio.

I directly compared the Cinnamon Galle dac to my Tron Atlantic Signature dac.  I could not get past how much I enjoyed listening to the Galle.  It just made music with a realism and muscularity that captured me completely. I wanted Colin to leave the Galle in my system and wanted to buy it on the spot.  
 

This is saying a lot because I loved my Tron dac.  The Tron bested the Mojo Pro dac pretty obviously to my ears in my system.  That gives you a sense on how good I think the Galle is. 

The new Galle II is an absolute beast of a dac costing more than 2x the regular Galle dac. It has some 2 farads of filtering capacitance! Yes, you read that right. This is 2,000,000 uf of capacitance 😳

You can read about it on the Cinnamon site

 

 

Where did this company come from?  I was extremely impressed with their open baffle speaker system.  They seemed to have popped into existence with a wide range of product which includes both electronics and speakers.

Sorry Agoners seems I made a mistake.  The Galle ll dac has 2000 farads of filter capacitance, not 2.   That means 2,000,000,000 uf ! 

2 BILLION farads...? Does that even make sense? I cannot imagine the need/benefit. Grannyring, can you help me understand the significance of this seemingly over-the-top specification from a functional point of view. I'd think you'd need a chassis the size of a snooker table to mount all those caps in.
