or thin sounding cymbals in your post. The only time I heard this much about brightness, hiss, or glare was with a SS setup and horn speakers. With all the tweaks you have done you should have been past those stages a long time ago. I can understand a slight edginess but the brightness stuff should have gone been way back.
With the hiss and brightness you describe in past post, I keep wondering if there is something else going on with your setup that you are trying to fix with the tweaks. With all the tweaks you have done you could have built your own DAC.
I know I have asked this before but don't know if you answered it. What does your digital setup consist of? All I know you have a DAC. What is the transport, cables, power cables, preamp, power amp, speaker cables, and speakers?
If I'm correct, I thought I saw you post that you have either Hubbell or Oyaide R1 outlet/s.
This would go a long ways to help us to help you with your system. You have been at this a long time with this DAC. I just to help identify what may be a trouble spot in your system that we can help you with to improve the SQ of your system or DAC.

These new ERO 1830 caps fix the trouble spot. Only I can tweak my system to how I (or my brain) wants it to sound. It's a MF V-dac I got in trade for a digital cable I made that someone liked enough to trade me his spare dac for. There is not one good cap in this dac so I'm replacing them, pretty much all of them. If I had stopped at these small value caps I would not have achieved the substantial and very important improvement with these new caps. This is what the hobby is about to me anyhow. Listening to things, comparing them and eventually staying with what I like. It's sounding vg now and I'm almost finished with it. T
we think about this part and that part then since only you can tweak your system how you like it. It's true, only you know what you like and don't like. I was just trying to help identify a possible trouble spot (if there was one) outside of the DAC. It's hard to help out when someone that doesn't give all the details about their components/systems.So cool, hope you have fun with your DAC. I'm done.
