Give me a few Casey. Just have to finish up another review first. ;)



"CAUTION-SPLASH BACK
ByCamden legacyon December 24, 2014
I was gifted poo-purri for Christmas. I decided to give it a go. I followed the directions and then began to do my business. I must warn you that when using poo-purri splash back from you poo will cause irritation and burning on your heiny-hole. Use caution while using this product."

Fun fact, another pirate gave me poo pourri as a gag gift and it actually ended up being pretty awesome!

Just know that the chassis issue is something that we are addressing, we know it's a hot topic. 



What does this mean? I know you're changing the chassis on the V2+, but do you have something planned for the V2? I'll gladly give mine up for another two weeks if it means I'll get a better chassis out of the deal.

Has anyone compared the amp section of the V2 vs Leckerton using UERM?

I use both together with UERM. The balanced out is pretty good though. Leckerton improves the SE out.

I just received my Crowd Funded V2 Infinity. Followed the V2's instructions very, very carefully and discovered that the V2's lights and buttons worked nicely and the V2 was recognized correctly in my Mac and Tidal Preferences, but that's about it. No music or sound made its way to the speaker end of my headphones.
As a comparison, music played very nicely on both of my Macs when using my three other DAC/Amps (including a Geek Out 1000) and 6 of my better headphones... But not the expensive toy-like V2 Infinity.  Seems DOA with cute little lights and buttons that work nicely.
Am I missing something?

Just tossing this out as a hail mary: Audio MIDI Setup, Click the Geek Out V2 Infinity, click the output tab, and then see if Mute is checked on Master, 1, or 2.

Sometimes, Macs just decide to mute things in the MIDI settings on first plug-in for no reason whatsoever.

The Mute thing has happened once to me, when I plugged the GEVO2 in during the login in screen. It s worth a shot...

That thing sure does live up to its name.
