This is a project long in the pipeline. Geco and I tried the Pass B1 Buffer with the Soekris to great effect. We had spoken about a valve buffer, and I ordered the Aikido 12VAC to try, it's been sitting in a box all the way from Hawaii waiting for work to back off a bit.

Awesome kit, I just decided to order the parts direct from Glassware, damn John Browskie knows how to pack a kit.
Details on the DAC/Streamer:
- Soekris DAM1021 modded (you can see some caps peaking out)
- Rpi 4 running VitOS/Roon
- Amanerro USB
- 5 PSU's for different stages (Pi, Soekris x 2, Amanerro, Aikido)
- Previously Pass B1 Buffer, upgraded to Aikido 12VAC Buffer
- Sonoff Switch, my hifi is connected to my home automation
- Chassis: Tangmonster special, I am always impressed by the build on this chassis and the thought in the layout, I wish they were commercially available... pretty please.
I mean this is a kit
Testing, should have got a shot of the scope, impressive design.
Squeezing it into the DAC. I use a lot of 3D printed objects so that I can easily place and move bits around.
