Nebor! Mukhang promising iyang proyekto mo ngayon na iyan a. Paano ba mai-iskor iyan? ;D

Ngapala, narinig ko na yung Baby G na kinuha ko sa iyo last Saturday. Hooked it up to Anthony's D1 (Daniel) BS.  Unang tunog pa lang, I was already very impressed with the sound.  That is surely the best sounding combo I've ever owned (well, I'm not really experienced in these matters as aside from the assortment of iPod docking speakers and other small speakers I've owned, the only "good" equipment I've ever toyed with are the Altec Lansing 621, which is a 2.1 system, the Dayton t-amp paired with the D1, an old Pioneer SA-6800ii integrated amp paired with the D1 -- sounded a tad too bright for me -- and some other old big Pioneer speaks, and my Pioneer AVR VSX-820K in tandem with Anthony's Tablette BS -- i only use these for movies as i cannot stand them for pure audio listening).  I mostly only do background listening, with music that is certainly not audiophile grade, but man, you can surely hear the sound improve as the days pass.  Tama ka, Master Jojo, mas gaganda pa talaga lalo tunog habang napapagpag yung speaker at amp. 

And I can't wait for my girlfriend to hear this combo interpret Sarah McLachlan, who is her goddess and who, she claims, sounds good in every system.  I'm confident that, with this combo, she will hear Sarah sound not merely good, but great. :)

Sayang talaga I had to go early last Saturday.  I would have liked to learn more from you.  Di bale, kapitbahay lang naman kita.  Magmama-close na lang ako sa iyo para madali akong makapag-pabalik-balik. Hehehe.

Sa uulitin, sir!

Hey hey hey neighbor!!! For the record, ikaw na ang pinakamalapit na PinoyDVD member sa akin! Naku wag ka muna magisip nito at di pa natesting hehehe...  ;D

Salamat at nag enjoy ka naman sa Baby G mo, sigurado mag match yan sa A-Audio speakers mo. Let it play non-stop, kahit background music lang para ma-exercise ng husto yun mga drivers. Yun naman Baby G mo kahit 24/7 mo gamitin walang problema yan sir kaya happy listening! ;)

Sana pumasa sa ears ng girlfriend mo, I find women's ears a lot challenging because of their insights na kadalasan na-miss natin mga lalake...  :D

Ang lapit mo lang naman eh, pasyal ka lang pag libre tayo pareho so we can further share ideas.  ;) ;) ;) Busy lang din ako gumawa ng rack nun hahaha!  ;D



Maraming salamat neighbor!

Initial tests and calibration of the psu boards...

Update...


Powered up the Bufallo II DAC and the AVSS smd LEDs lit up indicating a good ccs reference...




Wired everything up for 2nd test and calibration with load...







Everything seems fine and where they should be. Voltages and currents are spot on.

So how's the sound?

Ask the little big guy, he's enjoying Noel Cabangon's Biyahe album with my headamp... ;D

Boss Jojo, I'm interested/looking for a DAC with at least 2 toslink inputs.  May possibility bang i-customize yung DAC project mo?  Any chance pwedeng maging tubed DAC, like the Lite DAC 60 found overseas?

Ang pinaka ok na mod diyan sa mga AVR mo Brader ay yun 100V at 110V may delay na din. Lahat kasi ng nabibili commercial AVR yun 220V output lang ang may delay so bale wala din kung naka 110V equipment diba?  :D :D :D

Welcome welcome... pagkagaling ko sa meet natin pumunta pa ako DB sa Annex...  ;D ;D ;D

Inaantay ko din yan!!! Para all channels driven INDIVIDUALLY na hahaha!  :D :D :D

may kasalanan ako nakalimutan ko nga pala mag dala ng BDs enjoy mo muna yung mga DVDs madami dami pa naman yan at mga magagandang titles naman.

ayos nag hanap ka pa talaga ng gastos hehehehe

yun ang pinaka gusto ko talaga kase nga kaya ng AVR para dun sa delay eh tapos wala pala yung 110 at 100 V, pero ngayon ok na woohoooo., another thing  i like yung power cords, atleast ngayon di na awkward, yung dating cord and payat payat ngayon ang lalaki na

yung all channels driven individually di na siguro ako mahihirapan unawain yan ano, kase baka malito na naman ako eh humihina pala and 7 channels pag ginamit sabay sabay ;D ;D ;D ;D kaya maga lagay na lang ako ng hiwahiwalay na support.
