m3lraaHnevetS Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Wow ordered last Sunday and already playing today in the Netherlands! super fast delivery by DHL And out of the box it already sounds better than my Wavelenght Wavelink USB/SPDIF converter. Waiting for a modded Singxer SU-1 and will have a shootout between the two once settled. I power the Ultradigital with a LPS-1 at the moment and this sounds pretty good already. Barrows told me the LPS-1 might not be the best partner for the Ultradigital Any recommendations regarding power supply to the Ultradigital? Thanks in advance Pink Faun Streamer —> Pink Faun DAC --> Ayre AX5 --> Paradigm S8 Link to comment

And the once every 4-10 seconds alternating between the 70 Farad banks is 100% glitch-free and transparent. I defy anyone to see the alternating on a scope. Of course the other benefits— leakage--loop blocking, ultra-low noise, and ultra-low output impedance are some of what make the UltraCap LPS-1.2 the ideal mate to fine components such as the Sonore ultraDigital and ultraRendu. And it doesn’t hurt that their aluminum cases match exactly. Hi Alex thanks for your reply. I have a lot of respect for both you and Barrows so sometimes it it's difficult for me to weigh points of view. (mainly because I do not understand too much of it myself ?) Guess I will get the new Sbooster and/or a Pink Faun custom PS on the Ultradigital to hear and feel for myself before I make a final decision.

Well I received the Singxer today and first impression is that the Ultradigital is much better, just like your initial impression if I remember correctly...? What kept you from drawing a final conclusion until today? does the Singxer get so much better over time that it can compete with the Ultradigital? Hard to believe on first encounter...

m3lraaHnevetS Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 ah, that does explain. The Singxer is modded by Magnahifi. on the Ultradigital I use the LPS-1. cables are the best stuff from Pink Faun for USB and I2S. As said; the Ultradigital sounds much better to me until now. I will give them both some more time before I make a final call, but at this stage my money is on the UD. Pink Faun Streamer —> Pink Faun DAC --> Ayre AX5 --> Paradigm S8 Link to comment
