Re: I just changed my sla's that were 1.2 amp to 5 amp for each supply. .

I would encourage other owners of AN DAC kits to take
the plunge into DIY, don't be afraid to take the next step. I
have attempted several mods, that I scratched my head about,
but with the resources available on the web, and other ASYLUM
members posts, I was able to implament new mods without any
serious disasters. Read "John PA" discription of the mods
he made to his DAC, in the "Inmate Systems" sections and you
will be on the right track. Post questions - some one will answer.

I purchesed a DAC 1.2 several years ago, and modified my DAC
to mirror Asylum member, "John PA" Audio Note 1.1 DAC, and the
sound is excellent. I have only been able to compair my DAC 1.2
to a Mark Levenson # 39. In a heads up A/B compairson, the modified
AN 1.2 sounded better in all areas compaired to the # 39. Better bass, wider sound stage, and a seperior "stearophonic effect" the illusion of live music. I'm not saying it's "live music" just IMO sounds better had a more natural sound. The transformation from
the stock AN 1.2 DAC to the highly modified unit has been quite the
learning experence, and the improvement in sound quality has been
amazing, I did not think such improvements were possible! It is!
