I'm liking that speed and clarity combined with my tube amp much better than the LME49720. My wife loves them too and says they sound totally different whereas the others sound mostly alike (to her).

Note that I'm running it in a TC-7510. Leo or Stan, you reckon there would be much difference in the sound for a 7520?

Thanks for the suggestion. I have a modded 7510 and a standard 7520. Not much in it but I prefer the 7520.

I'd really like to get one of those 7520's. If only they had 2 optical inputs.

Tirna have today refunded my money for the 4032 op amp. I take it that means they have not found a solution to the height problem.
Next op-amp please?

odd...

I got an email from them saying they had fixed the problem, and were sending out teh refitted caps???

Hdn't someone before in this thread said they had got it back from Tirna and it fitted ok?

*confused*

I haven't heard anything since the original "there's a delay" email.
:confused: :scratch:

The funny thing is I told them I wasnt bothered and I would adapt the case if they couldnt solve the problem.
Oh well....

Heres what I got sent April 13th

Hi,

The inductance of the vias is negligible at audio frequencies.

Don't worry about it. We have a solution that allows the case to fit over the adaptor.

We are sending out all orders that haven't been sent yet, with the modification made, and modifying orders that are being sent back to us.

:lol: well it behaved in a dac I tried it in, no idea how well it runs in either a TC-7510 or 7520

Seems like they're forcing an exchange on the originals. I'm returning mine tomorrow, but I was thinking of just demanding a refund.. it seems to me that they're selling a "Beresford Upgrade" that they've never tried themselves, and that doesn't feel kosher to me. Should be our option after they sold something that didn't fit in the case.

Guess we'll see. I don't mind paying if folks here are successful with the new version.

if theres via's on the converter boards which go straight through to the smd op-amp pins 4 and 8 soldering the cap on the bottom board to these via's should be ok

Sure you all know what via's are
