I should be offering it as an option/side kit soon when the boards come in. There is an output CCS in the works, but Doug's 2nd attempt apparently blew up on him this evening, so the jury's out on that one, yet. Maybe it was the flux capacitor.

It did for me. My DSHA-0 maybe in trouble soon. Doug...thank you for coming down and really showing off some of your best creations. I can't wait until I can get an in-home audition with the Copenhagen amps as well as DSHA-2. Tom, thanks for convincing Doug to come down here. 2 Quote
HiWire Posted May 30, 2016 Report Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) I'm looking forward to reading about this stuff when it's ready. Edited May 30, 2016 by HiWire Quote
purk Posted September 9, 2016 Report Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) I brought Doug's ECP DSHA-2 production & prototype units to a recent mini-meet in Atlanta. Many people were totally super impressed by the sound. I also lend these two amps to couple of my headphile friends and they totally loved them too. IMO, the DSHA-2 does really well with lower & higher impedance phones including my HEK. The DSHA-2 is more or less at the SuSy Dynahi level but it is slightly ahead when paired with lower impedance phones, but the Dynahi is better at driving the HEK. Quite a performance coming from a desktop friendly amp really! Very well done by Doug. Super impressed with the DSHA-2. The 3-D sense of soundstage & imaging couple with dead neutral tonality make this an absolute buy for someone with 2.2k budget to spend on an headphone amp. Edited September 9, 2016 by purk 6 Quote
purk Posted September 9, 2016 Report Posted September 9, 2016 I may go for the the prototype unit and get a power supply upgrade. However, these two are not better than my DSHA-0 that I have. It is better in the depth of sound field department but the DSHA-0 is better in term of sense of power and the bass. So I *might* shoot for a Copenhagen V or something like that. Quote
TMoney Posted September 9, 2016 Report Posted September 9, 2016 Yeah, based on your post above the Copenhagen might be a better fit for your tastes. Quote

The Copenhagen V was quite a jump in performance from the DSHA2 when I heard it at the Canlanta Meet but it is nearly double the price. The current production model is quite a bit smaller compared to the L2. I will post picture of the two side by side for comparison. The prototype DSHA-2 uses the same chassis as the Black Diamond I think. Quote
HiWire Posted September 16, 2016 Report Posted September 16, 2016 Is there any technical info on the new amps? Will they be released this year? Quote
dsavitsk Posted September 16, 2016 Author Report Posted September 16, 2016 I should have some actual announcements in a few weeks. I am waiting on machining and finishing. 9 Quote
TMoney Posted September 19, 2016 Report Posted September 19, 2016 Just put a deposit down on one of the aforementioned "announcements." 5 Quote
stax fart Posted October 24, 2016 Report Posted October 24, 2016 Please, can someone post internal pics of Ravenswood? I guess it looks even better inside Quote
dsavitsk Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Posted October 24, 2016 I don't know that it looks better, but here is one I am working on wiring the computer to the various relays right now ... outside pics in a few days. 9 Quote
