Okto Research DAC8 PRO and Stereo
Essence replied to kukynas's topic in Digital Sources, DACs, and Computer Audio
My unit is finally going to arrive this week after ordering all the way back in May. I talked to Paval quite deeply on the custom voltage option to better pair with bufferless Purifi amplification but was told of "distortion penalty" when output is customised for higher than stock output voltages. Finally can complete my mini home-cinema setup! -
Been using a Purifi for last month or so and its been great! My unit's buffer just uses a LM4562 opamps, I am not too fused over opamps but if you really wanted maximum performance the only way to go is to run it in bypass mode. Too bad quality high voltage line-stage preamplifiers are a dime a dozen. Time to hunt for a Benchmark LA4. Have yet to see a second hand unit on the classifieds...

Yamaha NS-3000 (an anticipation thread)

+1, its maximum power input also seems kinda low? (120W paired with sensitivity of 87dB.) -
Much better lower end performance compared to my old amp a Job 225, which I believe has much higher gain. The Hyperion is whisper quiet with ear straight in front of tweeter at full gain with no load, and the remote is a very nice QoL functionality that I miss greatly. Would've kept the unit (and got another to power rears) if it wasn't for upgrade fever enticing me to try a multi-channel system. I don't need as much power as I run a nearfield setup however my current approach is to skip the centre channel hence the front two speakers will need to carry the load of the centre and b
