That pic is a bit dated now... things go in, things go out as I design and test them. The amp is stable, the Silver Lightning Interconnects are stable, as is the passive silver "preamp" as well as the DAC. The DAC is due for a new design to come in soon, obviously past due for a 24/96 unit.
Passive pre/control center - has silver wiping contacts, 25kohm impedance, custom made.
