Which one to buy: UpTone USB REGEN or Intona USB Isolator?

[DrN]

Does the Itona do anything for the Yggdrasil? Yes or no? Please.

Any one using one on the Schiit?

No one answered my question a bit back.

[DrN]

Thanks Dev!!!!!!

[DrN]

I have an itona industrial coming, after selling my second Regen which didn't do anything I could hear to keep it.

I will report back using it with my Yiggy and a Curious link.

[DrN]

Since not hearing anything with the Regen Amber/ LPS alone on the Yggdrasil and now

after 5 days of use with the Itona Ind v into a Yiggy there is a very positive impression. But not a night and day difference.

Clarity improved as others have said and separation particularly good female voice details.

No read problems very solid.

Yiggy> Courious link> Itona> Supra Cable> PC

Simple and very satisfying!!!

[DrN]

Ahhh.... well understood. But, way too much doo dads laying around. Plus the extra co$t.

Thanks for the tip!

[DrN]

I know, Hold on a minute> Mutec MC3+USB is like $1k.

Using an Itona Ind v here on a PC >Supra USB>Itona>Curious link to Yiggy.

Has to be on the Mac end. Unplug everything and reinsert to try and recognize the Yiggy.

Unless you tried that there are other things written all over so you have to search if you don't get an answer right here. May change the Curious cable too.

I was wondering about the foil too on how it was done. I though too, just use copper tape?

Middy take some picts on how you do it. Itona really chinced out on that case. But it does work on my Yiggy.

[DrN]

Ha!! It does say Itona on it.

I want that case!!!

[DrN]

Interested in that too.

I just contacted them.

 

Itona's site is pretty sparse.

[DrN]

It makes a difference on my Yggdrasil where the Regen really did not.

It has been compared in and out here. I agree you have to be careful listening.

Regen worked well on my Chord QuteHD.

[DrN]

Please do show us how you progress and most of all how it sounds.

[DrN]

Abtr nice!

What did you use to stand off the board?

[DrN]

Cool, looking at all that now. May order that Mu metal sheet fro EBay for lining too.

We'll see. I'll report back. Thx!

[DrN]

Dave, great job!!

So..... you gots the plastic "copper lined" case inside the alum case?

Is that correct?

You going to Mu metal the alum case next, correct?

[DrN]

I had tried one and it did nothing with the itona . I tried it every way possible here. This is on my Yggdrasil.
