    Default Allo Digione or Allo Katana

    This might just be the ramblings of tinkerer with nothing better to do but.....

    I've currently got the digione outputting to my caiman seg and I'm more than happy with the way they perform.

    What's got me thinking is that I'm only using one input on my caiman seg and that seems a waste to me.

    What if I sell my seg and digione and buy the Allo Katana player? Has anyone tried this? Got a feeling I could be selling apples to buy apples but would be very interested if anyone has gone down this road and what they discovered.

    If I do this I'll be preamp down so I'll have to factor this into it but I've got a couple of ideas here to including the schiit saga amoung others.

    I used a Digione with a Seg and Longdog Audio LPSU.

    I now use an Allo Boss V1.2 with an Ifi PSU and prefer it!

    Digione into a vena2 dac section. It's a nice combo and the digione aluminium case is very smart too.
    Not sure there is good financial sence in me changing tbh.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Mmm got a feeling I might prefer it too. Question is will I ever need the additional inputs the seg gives me.

    Faversham....I've ended up there a few times on the train after a few beers after work

    My parents live in Northfleet and I see them most Sundays. Would a Sunday be a possibility? I'd have to being my seg too and it's psu but no a major prob. Be good to hear your set up.
