You were right, Gaz, once I installed the Gator board, everything blossomed into full life. Stan told me that the board needs to get a decent burn-in. In your opinion, how long should I wait for it to burn in properly before I give it my review? One curious thing: despite the fact that everybody's saying how this board increases the output gain, I haven't noticed it. If anything, it fells just a tad bit quieter than the unmoded Caiman. -- magiccarpetride ------------------------------------------------------------------------ magiccarpetride's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37863 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84349 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
