    I have a DAC and a DDC. I use a USB A - B cable from laptop to DDC and coax from DDC to DAC.

    Id start James with anything related to the clock signal?

    Does your kit have any kind of displays?
    Chips on these are notoriously noisy.

    Dac chip might be a good candidate too, depending on how its been implemented.
    Avoid any regulators, capacitors, putting ERS fabric on these killed the high end.

    I’d stay away from transformers too.

    Worth giving it a go,
    let us know how you get on!

    Thanks for the recommendations Gary. I will start with the clock and DAC chips first. Will let you know how it goes.

    A good day for headphones


    Fed up with a 3m cable trailing across my floor watching at night.
    Got these for movie n TV watching using the AppleTV over Bluetooth.
    Need to take a piss during a movie, no problem!

    The earbuds are for work and music on the move.
    Wearing glasses, a mask and headphones got a bit annoying... Too many layers!

    Both really well reviewed, and sound great apparently.
    Cool.

On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    “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!”
