Not too long ago I repaired a TC7510, LM4562 op-amps etc, nice bit of kit.
Going by memory the standard 7520 bettered the modded 7510 to my ears, going to Caiman spec brought quite a big difference over the standard 7520 in my system all through the range

I briefly heard a stock Dacmagic, didn't really rate it sonically

Slightly off topic, so forgive me - Stan, your website mentions "Limited Edition" - how many Caimans will be made?

I am actually down to my last twenty something pieces. If there is still a demand I might make a few more. Some people have indicated that they would be on holiday in August, so they couldn't order or needed the money for holiday spending. They were hoping to order one in September.
