| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 I might know the same about shortcomings of the stock power supply or maybe even more than you. Imagine that! But we won’t find out because I won’t share with you, so you can’t sell a $10 mod for $1000 (just a random number as an example). . You... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 Finally, JKRichards admitted that for the DirectStream DAC to sound good, it’s not enough just to swap the transformers and do the simple Vocm mod. You need a good power supply for the analog board. People on the PS Audio forum (including myse... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 I don't have an inferiority complex, and I easily admit when I was wrong. Ted Smith has called me out for not knowing what I was talking about and wrongly assuming circuits and design AS MANY TIMES as he called you out [or any other (proactive... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 Thanks George for the support. Yes, this is a complicated design with sandwich using different types of capacitors to cover wider frequency range. The electrolytic capacitors here literally have no legs at all so no parasitic inductance added. A... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 This job is way better then you did for some poor lad | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 Oh, I just realized, it's not APS transformers less sensitive to power supplies. It's Vocm mod makes any transformers less sensitive to power supplies. But, anyway, I can still hear the difference between power supplies, power cords, and intercon... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 I didn't say there's no difference. There is. It's just my experience: power supply mod brought more changes than swapping 4400 with APS even WITH Vocm mod. The most of the things people described as APS transformers change in the sound: tight a... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 If you haven’t heard 4400 with a GOOD power supply unit (PSU), then you haven’t heard their full potential. With GOOD PSU (not cheap Chinese stuff), the sound improvement from 4400 without PSU -> to -> 4400 with PSU was much bigger than 440... |
