> Not that things will explode
Hahah, but Peter, you know i like things exploding.....   

There`s no 2nd NOS1 but i believe Anthony is keeping 1 or 2 spare NOS1`s in his attic for me just in case all goes up in smoke over here.

Since finally getting NOS1`a G3` going (special shout out to Ramesh and Anthony!) i simply had another silly thought - maybe try former fav Palladium cable again.

It`s ok the idea is scr*pped already. Forget it. Thank you (and for all!)

Meanwhile M3/L3/NOS1a/G3/Blaxius/top AC delivery - sounds KILLA man! 

In addition after checking Orelo wiring...

Orelo XLR
pin 2 = hot
pin 1 = ground
pin 3 = nothing

Fine to wire up the new 1x stereo NOS1 XLR sockets in same fashion?

Ok image of my NOS1 parallel wired channels

Should i leave existing wiring on the remaining stereo BNC sockets or should they now be disconnected and protected after swapping in the XLR sockets...

Anthony,

Still learning basic technical aspects but yes i do understand all you explained.
 
Was just curious the relationship between output impedance and output voltage of DAC (if there is any) for future reference more than anything and if ever introducing other components to try or w/e.

Does voltage change at all if impedance is changed or is it always stable/set according to circuit design.... will NOS1 always keep 2.7v output via XLR?

Thanks!

DAC output impedance does not effect anything with voltage strength ?
 
Other than that... i am aware with the said rule of thumb being load impedance should be a minimum of 10 times the source impedance to achieve best compatibility/transparency.

But if 75ohm output impedance is bit too high for say 600ohm load (breaking above rule) then conversely would something like 0.5ohm output then become too low for the same (or higher) 600ohm load...
Or is the rule of thumb always valid regardless how low the output.

Yo Peter,

Apologies to bother with such things. It is more curiosity than anything, hopefully no cats are harmed, simply to test former favorite $$ XLR cable which has not been done here yet since NOS1a/G3 version(great sound BTW!!) Once method is understood then should have no worries changing to either socket if/when desired.
So this is helpful information and sounds easy enough so thank you for that!

Again, out of curiosity, and not that there is any `pre-amp` here as always like going direct to Orelo, just wondering why (as you say) 75ohm output would be less than ideal situation for connecting to some preamp with say 600ohm. So does the higher 75ohm output somehow result in higher/hotter voltage signal, vs lower 33ohm, that 600ohm preamp might not like?
Or is there something else going on here i do not understand that would cause more toward incompatibility in such a situation.....

Nice to know things even if useless 

Pete

Hi Peter,

My NOS1a has 2x BNC stereo sockets.

Q: What is required for reversing 1x BNC stereo sockets back to former XLR sockets (with the intention using solely just the XLR sockets)

Is it simply a matter of replacing 1 pair of the BNC sockets with XLR sockets - pin 2 hot....
Or should the 4x 75ohm resistors also be replaced back to original 33ohm(?) resistors for proper XLR SQ/operation.

Thank you Peter !

I have been lucky enough over the years to have owned what i believe to be some of the best IC`s on the market such as top tier Teo, High fidelity, Elrod, Sunyata, Silversmith palladium etc. Without attempting to explain with any of the usual audiophile terminology..... Blaxius is simply a step above whilst saving $$$$
Huge credit to you Peter. Especially considering cables are not exactly your thang. Very impressive!
I am honestly saying this without even hearing Blaxius on my NOS1a yet(due to circumstances) or in B-75 mode obviously. Merely connected to my makeshift Oppo-105 and integrated amp. I think i am definitely in for a treat when i connect my main system back up.
Some of you guys here, i assume, may not really know how good this Blaxius cable really is. I think many of you are actually quite spoilt with this cable. Coming from a crazy cable veteran in our crazy world of `hi-end` cables i really believe Blaxius is the REAL deal.
IMO all you guys owning Blaxius are missing out on nothing.
Can`t wait to hear this on my NOS1/Orelo. So far truly impressive!
to you Peter

Hi Ajax,

I`m willing to offer my assistance. Not using my main system atm.
Was planning to order a Lush in near future which would not be getting any use for a little while yet. Happy enough to order from Peter sooner though..... as soon as he is finished tanning himself. He would of course have my permission to send straight to you so you could evaluate Lush in your system. Determine its worth risk free.
Once you are finished you could send on to Adelaide.... hopefully with more burn in than Peter.  Interested?

Pete

Yo P1

So I can finally talk about Orelo MkII properly then?  lol   
Yea more pics more pics please.
Looking forward to this thread developing!
And of course all the juicy details to cum Mr 1

Sup guys,
I wish I was at this X-fi show too for this. Actually should be over there somewhere since I am a Polak. Now in Oz though.
O well, guess just have to wait until these speakers are in my own room here.... since I`ve ordered a pair already 
Actually  will have whole P1/Bert system, since I`m already the very VERY proud owner of NOS1 and XXcomputer.
Well IDC about searching other companies/components anymore. Now just give P1 all my wads and I simply know I will have want I want - the best sound! Much easier now.
And to think at first(long ago) I thought this damn guy was just possibly full of......... beer?
P1, am I allowed to disclose the exact speaker I am getting yet? Well I don`t even know myself exactly. I`m told it is similar to this speaker.  Apparently has something to do with the fridge or something. Hmmm  Can`t wait though w/e it is.
Enjoyed reading your latest after the fact post too P1. Wow.
It`s all getting very exciting isn`t it. Great stuff man!
Watch that X button though. Silly sober moment again?

The name is P4A
