106  Ultimate Audio Playback / Playback Tweaks and Source related subjects / Tighter inlets on the NOS1a USB and AC inputs on: July 12, 2017, 10:32:13 am
Peter, would it be possible to put tighter inlets on the USB inputs -in the style of the industrial version of Intona- and also on the power inlet? Now the connectors are not too tight, mostly in the power input. I'm thinking about it to take advantage of that we are sending the Nos1 for the Bass upgrade.

Juan

Mani, you're a lucky guy having Peter's whole family as guests. It is impossible to imagine a better way to fine tune the sound system. Congratulations on the  fantastic sound I can imagine you have now and waiting to see the effect of the Lush on your system.

Peter, are you finally going to send me the Lush (and the original) at the same time as the Bass upgrade? I ask you because you did not confirm it.

Haha, if I had to confirm all, each topic would have triple the post count, because you'd also all say "thank you".
So yes, of course I will, faults prohibited.

And yes, I just saw that it was 10 euros including shipping, not insured. Happy
Technically that would make it 1.30 euros.
Prices went up drastically, and now it is 2.00. Happy Happy

Best regards,
Peter

That's fine Peter, I accept the new price  Happy

Best regards

If possible I would also like to have 1m of this original cable. I already asked for a spare once, but when I moved to a new house I lost it again

Haha Juan. Can you tell me what I charged for it the last time ? I recall something like 2$. Or maybe it was 5. Or 10.x
Anyway  put it next to your name.

Regards,
Peter

I think it was 10€ including shipping but charge whatever you think is right. That cable is worth much more than it costs.

Ah ok Peter, I did not realize you were using the old USB cable as the short. Thus everything is under control. I remember writing some post about the qualities of the original USB when people were looking for usb cables out there, even ultra expensive. If possible I would also like to have 1m of this original cable. I already asked for a spare once, but when I moved to a new house I lost it again

Hi Anthony, great test! I guess the short generic USB was anyone you found around because the origininal one from Peter wasn't short. If so, it seems to me that the choice of that standard short cable depends on luck since all the cables in the chain have importance. Have you tried more than one generic short USB cable?

Peter, what really pushed you to create the Lush? Do you see it as a way to solve some lack of the Bass upgrade impossible to solve otherwise? If this is so, should it be understood as part of the Bass upgrade?

Hi Juan,

Actually the Lush is nothing more or less then the next step at the hardware level after all the B'ASS/G3 upgrade has been accomplished and is in production. So notice that only such a stage allows me to proceed with anything next. And for me, USB is the obvious thing to grab at the horns at this moment.

Maybe in the original post it wasn't make clear all that much (I wrote the post as a whole two times before I thought it was honest all over yes) but it was my explicit attempt to make a USB cable for audio specs (but notice that it would be my own specs as such) instead of Clairixa which is a USB cable make to USB specs (as good as I could). And both are completely different.

In the end it was nothing else as an attempt to again improve on the USB cable, knowing that the could not be "it" for audio. But mind you please, back at the time (over two years ago I think) I couldn't do anything else than create the cable to USB specs, which appeared might difficult already. The step I could take now is based upon more experience, mostly with the isolation and its behavior and sound. Thus there too, we already learned that isolation and isolation are two completely different things, were it for audio sound. From there I worked on the cable.
... And in my view it is beyond belief what it can achieve (laying many various albums by now) ...

Best regards,
Peter

Peter thanks, I understand perfectly your explanation, all but "Thus there too, we already learned that isolation and isolation are two completely different things"  scratching

The evolutionary process of the NOS1a, with the Bass upgrade followed by the Lush, now appears as a logical sequence.

The only doubt I have is that you have created the Lush based on your system, including the two components that connects the USB cable, your Stealth LPS PC and the NOS1A (with the Phisolator and the Bass upgrade). What will be the behavior of the Lush with another Audio Pc? I guess the only way to find out is to try it.
I keep my 1m order  Wink

What really improves the sound, in my case, is to disconnect the USB cable from the Audio Pc. Logically you have to turn off the Audio Pc and the NOS1, but if you only turn off the Audio Pc and the NOS1 without disconnecting the Clairixa from the Audio Pc the improvement is imperceptible. It is not necessary to disconnect the Clairixa from the input of the NOS1. That is my experience.

Thanks Arjan. If you are using tube amps and don't find the sound too warm then probably the Lush is working well in your system. When you say that the bass is better would you say that it also has a better definition?

Juan

For those who already have the Lush:
Can you add to the expressions of wonder some other more descriptive detail? e.g. How you compare it to the Clairixa? Thanks

Peter, what really pushed you to create the Lush? Do you see it as a way to solve some lack of the Bass upgrade impossible to solve otherwise? If this is so, should it be understood as part of the Bass upgrade?
I'm not questioning anything here, just want to understand it better.

Peter, 1m for me please. As I have to ship you the NOS1 for the Bass upgrade in two or three weeks you can ship back all together. I have the USB input in the back face of the dac leg, so maybe would be easier to make the Lush and the short one with the isolation you mentioned with my NOS1 there. Perhaps I'm a little confused about the short "loop through" cable and the other Lush one. That's why I'd rather that you make all together there. Of course I can pay for the cable now.

Regards,
Juan

It seems like a way to clean the mains and is somewhat similar to when the sound is better on Sundays.

Hi Mani, did you remember to look at the freezer this morning?  Wink
