Our own 432 EVO MASTER development server has the PSU and SERVER combo sitting on top of each other, with the only thing separating them, is a set of 3 tweaked pucks by a friend of the company who makes decouplers: http://duart-audio.be/ We have designed the 432 EVO MASTER triple cable set and...- FredericV

Ok, point taken regarding detuning. I know it's used in musician circles, but it's not often used in audiophile speak. Guess de-clocking your low-end motherboard USB output with some external gadget sounds less nice than re-clocking. Hence we use the term "re-tuning" instead of "de-tuning"...- FredericV

That's a strange way of putting it. We don't "detune" but retune A=440 Hz based music into A=432 Hz. Our method has been confirmed by actual musicians, and even used on the debut album from Jazz Profilactika’s debut album Tick Tock. The method was confirmed & authenticated by all band members...- FredericV

Nobody is forcing you to use this mode, in bitperfect or upsample-only mode, the machine still is very good without the rate change, and also won best of show in Munich & X-FI without 432 Hz. We did our own research with 60 test candidates long before we even created the 432 EVO brand, and 58...- FredericV

In the early days in our development, 432 EVO has had several copycats, which is the reason for no longer publishing the internals of our server. One of them tried to copy our spring suspension system, the other copying several other design choices. After Munich 2017, another vendor came out...- FredericV

The same review from Hifi Choice also concluded the 432 EVO AEON was the best sounding USB source the reviewer had tested: 432 Hz depends from person to person. According to a study from Maria Renold, 90% prefers 432 Hz over the 440 Hz original. So there's a much smaller percentage which...- FredericV

Please follow this link to understand 432 Hz: https://432evo.be/index.php/what-is-432hz-tuning/ Any 432 EVO model can play in bitperfect mode, or upsample-only mode (with tens of selectable filter options including the best in class Archimago minimum phase filter which we also tweaked further)...- FredericV
