  3. Original owner and mint. I only accept paypal friends and family. See my 23 years of Audiogon feedback under mikeg. Buyer pays shipping. AfterDark Bridge: AFTERDARK. PROJECT CLAYX GIESEMANN ROSANNA NETWORK BRIDGE X OCXO 10M MASTER CLOCK X ROON READY Rosanna Network Bridge Base model, Digital Module: Made to order I2s RJ45 for AYON, OCXO Optimised for motherboard CPU / Lan port Ethernet to I2S converter (internal AfterDark clock), $2400 retail Farad Super3 linear power supply with Level 2 silver DC cable and SR Purple fuse available for an additional $650 ($1,120 retail).
  4. $5895 (was $14,695 retail). Original owner and mint. I have the original boxes and remote. See my 23 years of Audiogon feedback under mikeg. I only accept Paypal Friends and Family or bank wire. Shipping cost will be split. The umbilical cable between the main chassis and power supply chassis has received the SR quantum tunnel treatment. Includes a Synergistic Research Master fuse ($600 value). Includes a new set of Golden Lion 6H30 (quad) and power supply (quad) tubes. Currently a quad of 1985 Reflector 6H30 Super tubes with 2,000 hours is installed (they last 8,000 typically and are a $800 value). For a photo see https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650080190-streaming-system-ayon-audio-s-5-network-player-ad-server-ad-bridge-etherregen-uptone-js-2-lps/ The S-5 offers new dimensions of transparency and holographic. It immediately exhibits a large soundstage, greater transient speed top-to-bottom, purer resolution of low-level detail and expanded dynamic contrasts; with more bass slam, definition and extension. Compromise was not built into the S-5 design. Features & Design Full-featured Network Music Player/DAC/Preamp Class-A triode vacuum-tube output stage for single-ended & balanced operation Signal Path We believe that the simplest circuits work best together with the shortest signal path. That is why our pre-amplifiers to date have used single-ended pure class-A circuitry.The shorter the signal path is, the less possibility of sonic degradation from various sources, including the wire itself. Even on the circuit boards, the copper traces are kept to a very minimum length. The completely redesigned circuit board provides a more straightforward and direct approach to the signal paths.

Separate power transformer windings and filters provide total isolation between the input and output stage which makes this a pure power source. This is a critical attribute for a 6H30 output stage. We also use electrolytic capacitors with much larger storage capacity to make up for the loss in filtering when using resistors in lieu of inductors. *Three R-Core / Low noise – insulated power transformers for digital & analog separated *Innovative power supply provides a high speed energy delivery on transients *Separate and isolated power supplies over each stage of amplification *AC power line filter to avoid noise and hash from entering into the unit. *Four times tube rectification for tube output stage *Dual Choke with Film caps *10 separate voltage regulators Components The type of parts used, therefore, must have a synergistic relationship to the circuit they are placed in. It is this relationship, of which type of part to use where, that sets our products apart from the masses. *Selected, premium quality passive components used in all applications *High speed & high quality audiophile grade coupling capacitors *High quality Special tube sockets with gold pins *Capacitors ( MKP 1% ) *High quality – RCA & XLR jack *Gold-plated industrial grade PCB Mechanical Construction The high grade aluminum chassis imparts a richer, more lustrous tonality with a cleaner back-ground and less hash and grain. All brushed anodized anti-vibration-resonance and non-magnetic chassis’s are fully hand assembled to insure the highest level of craftsmanship. *AC phase polarity control indicator *The aluminium feet are resonance absorbing types *Metal remote commander *Chassis finish: black / chrome

  6. Hi Adrian, If you have a single output AfterDark GIESEMAMM clock, does the Cybershaft CYB-DS01 allow for connection to the AfterDark. Constellation Giesemann Xe Extreme Dual 10G SFP+ Ultra Low Latency NIC and the Uptone Audio EtherREGEN? Does the splitter perform as well as a clock with three built-in outputs?
  7. Hi Adrian, Can this card be added to my AFTERDARK. PROJECT CLAYX ROON KARMANN MUSIC SERVER X HANDHARTILO SERIES?
  8. Hi Adrian, Will my PROJECT CLAYX ROSANNA NETWORK BRIDGE be upgradeable to the Rosanna Diretta Network Bridge Edition? Mike
  9. @flowcharts See attached feedback on eBay for one of my purchases of the NanoFlo Superconductor Holographic 3D6 power cord. I use my full name on eBay. What cable company do you own or work for?
  10. @flowcharts Create some joe-shmoe forum burner accounts and go crazy referencing your own content to give the perception that people read your content? Let’s see. I have been on Audiophile Style since 2015. My user name on all of the sites you referenced is either mikeg or mikeg1. You on the other hand have been on Audiophile Style since June with 10 posts. You come here with your off topic malicious comments appear to be from a joe-shmoe burner account.
  11. You are entitled to your opinion. If you fully read the first post you would have seen “audio reviewer” on the bottom. I would have thought that would make things self explanatory as who I was and the review I referred to. My signature on the bottom of each post says reviewer. We have already covered that I purchased all of my cables in follow on response. Keep up with the thread. I’m not sure how you could comment on what relationship I have with anybody since I don’t know you.
