Nick, as of yet, there's no official website fully developed, however, I wanted to post a few internal photos here, but have absolutely no clue how to (yet)

Charles, thanks for the offer, but I'm still trying to post photos here from my pictures list in Windows 10 PC.

Can you edit your title thread to say Vu Jade'?  Pete asked me about this last night, just wondering, thanks again.




The easiest way is to hit reply and when you get to the page where you type in your post, at the bottom left corner of the text box you will see the words "Additional Options...". Click on them and on of the options you will see is a browse button that you can use to attach photos from your hard drive.
Remember, it's all about the music........

Anything I've heard from Carl's hands has sounded great. I'll bet this thing kicks ass.

   In every way. Never and I mean never have I heard a DAC do what this one does period. The most un Hi Fi sounding DAC yet IMHO.
   Natural tonality with so much dimension and harmonics just scary real.
    Piano never sounded so real to me. BTW I cannot change thread name. Do not know how.

Pete called to inform me that he and Karl have been extremely busy with their regular jobs and family matters.

They are working feverishly to try and finish cosmetic touches and parts ordering for individual customer needs/requirements.

He reassured me they will finish the website with nice photo uploads and descriptions, so please hang in there a while longer, it will be worth the wait.  :D

    Yes the new units will feature exposed tubes and a lower profile. I have their prototype phono stage in house.
    We have another winner here. My loesch & Weisner is considered state of the art. Well it met its match. I'm in hook line and sinker.
      The DAC was almost equal to my Loesch phono section. With Karls design NO MORE.
     These guys got it together keep a close eye on them.Fools rush in and that will not be the case with them.
      Nervosa waiting time for my DAC.

  Living with the prototype now for a week to date never has digital sounded this way in my home. Just never.
   You name it tonality, harmonics, transparency all there in spades. This DAC is a game changer and is going nowhere.
    Should have a production model shortly that the local guys can hear and maybe listen to at home.

So Carl stopped by tonight with his new Vu Phono Preamp and we listened to it and compared it to my Sutherland. No contest.

Now the Sutherland costs way less than the Vu but loving that 16 tube sound. Just need to sell a kidney or two and I'm all in.

I had the opportunity to listen to the 2-box Vu Deja DAC in my main system yesterday.

Very nice analogue-like playback. All listeners thought we were playing vinyl or reel to reel tapes. Very impressive! Two thumbs up!  :thumb: :thumb:
