Stacking a rack mount DAC on desk with a teeny amp like the RNHP would make for some awesome pictures, that’s for sure.

I think my wife and I would just agree that she would be happier shopping and then meeting up later on. :grin:

That’s the type of wisdom that hopefully I’ll acquire throughout the years to come.

She’s pretty cool and not super bothered as long a she gets a good steak dinner and a beer later lol…to be fair she’s happy with her Momentum’s but happy to listen to other gear and can hear the difference but not bothered enough to spend on it.

When you have been together for many, many years you just get to the point where there is no sugar coating anything. :laughing:

Right up front it is “Yeah, I’m not doing that. We’ll meet up later”.

She would not spend 4 to 5 hours at an audio show anymore than I would spend 4 to 5 hours shopping with her. We travel well together, but have different tastes.


I got this tube amp today: Cayin – CS-55A

First song is truely different from my THX amp - there is more music in this tube amp :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: :+1: and it looks stunning. It has a DAC and Ultra-Linear & Triode-mode, depending on music choice and also RCA out for speakers.

When I saw it and the specs, I knew my amp/dac search was over :yum:

That’s a sweet amp lol. What speakers are you planning to use with it?

No idea yet, but the webshop I got it from is run by 3 young guys who has a lot lower prices than other shops. Usually I can find everything in Germany or the UK 10% lower, but their prices are 20% lower than that, so maybe one of their speakers.

They have a speaker brand called “Zu”.

Zu audio makes some very nice things lol. I would suggest looking into them (I’m also surprised you can get zu audio over there)

That’s freaking awesome!
