RE: Antoine's system - Antoine - 12-Jun-2020 Hi @nicoludio , sorry I can’t report anything new regarding the Buffalo switch. It’s in my network but I haven’t made any changes since I originally modified it or did any comparisons. There’s been quite some chatter on audiophilestyle.com about the modified Buffalo switch in several topics. It seems it’s been discontinued and stocks seem to have been depleted worldwide. If you do a search there I’m sure you’ll find the discussions. Some have compared it to the Melco S100 and discussed their results. One person is currently experimenting in tweaking/modding it further using linear power regulators. Thanks @audio_engr! DIY is fun and can indeed be rewarding in more than one way. Antoine's system - nicoludio - 13-Jun-2020 Thanks, Antoine. Managed to order it from Japan. I did ask a dealer to check with Melco Japan on the differences between the Melco S100 & the Buffalo. Not unsurprisingly, they volunteered nothing RE: Antoine's system - Antoine - 14-Jun-2020 Congrats on finding one @nicoludio! Nenon over at AS has compared the Buffalo and S100 side by side so I’m not surprised Melco did not volunteer anything as he found them to be fully identical except for a separate capacitor board at power input and of course the casing. Antoine's system - nicoludio - 14-Jun-2020 Hahaha ... as I understand it, the only difference might be the clock. So far, there is no indication as to whether the S100 employs a better quality clock I can live without the better casing. Will probably apply damping materials on the top lid. RE: Antoine's system - Antoine - 14-Jun-2020 @nicoludio, even the clocks are the same!

It takes a fair bit of patience to comb through the very long Audiophilestyle thread for the relevant information. |
