Art, when you say leave the amp on, do you mean on power or on standby?
DK Design VS.1 Reference mkII - Optimization
I would like to know what tuning, customizing, hot rodding, tweaking, what ever.. that you owners of DK Design VS-1 MK2 are using to bring out the best in this amp. It seems to be responsive to changes in interconnects, tubes, power & speaker cables, speaker dynamics, etc. most probably to both the positive and negative.
Please share your work. I would like to know what improved it's performance, what caused no real change and what made it sound worse. Thanks in advance!

07-06-06: Audioari1Aluminum is non-magnetic, just like Lexan, so there should be no difference in performance between these two materials. Plastic (Lexan) encourages static electricity, so it seems to me the aluminum cover would be the better choice. |
Tvad, What is needed is a magnetic cover - that will absorb those electro-magnetic waves and they won't just bounce about in the amp. If you don't believe in electro-magnetic waves or fields just look for the Aurora Borealis. Maybe there is a look alike in the amp that only appears in the dark. ROTFLMAO, but not at you. :-) |
Audioari1, can you provide a link to an article discussing electro-magnetic bounce effect? I have done a search for "electro-magnetic bounce effect" and found nothing. I have found several articles discussing electromagnetic field radiation, and ground bounce, but these are two separate phenomenon, and ground bounce is controlled by the adjusting size of wire traces. Here's the article |
