anyone would recommend this one - Oyaide Continental 5S?

Just found a post below: -

"The Oyaide Continental 5S USB is a well balanced and highly musical USB cable where nothing jumps out at you. Neither lean nor mean tonally, though slightly on the richer side harmonically (warmer than colder and heavier than lighter), I like this cable a lot. It has caused quite a stir here when in use… it really makes the music flow stirring not only emotions, but one's feet. It also reminds me of the Furutech USB cable causing me to wonder if there is a house sound to cables from Japan; that being: articulate, orderly, honest, and polite in the sense of never being annoying or rude musically (now there is a new term musically rude—dibs!). It is perhaps not as dark as the Furutech, though on its own I would never have characterized the Furutech as dark—just perhaps slightly darker than the rest but only when compared directly to the other USB cables here in the house. Simply put, the Oyaide Continental does it all quite well. It is well built and possesses an outward beauty—clearly reflective of Oyaide's products—that is quite pleasing to the eye. The Continental is constructed of silk filaments and sterling 5N silver conductors, all combined with an eye towards addressing noise, while mitigating vibrations and maximizing signal transfer. Oyaide's fanatic attention to detail, where nothing is left to chance as evident in their uncompromising approach to the cable's construction, has clearly resulted in the cable being a musical winner."

Hello Kawee ching,

Are you still using the M2Tech Young DAC + Palmer ?

I'm a new owner of Young, I like it because its so detail;
but after a few days listening I found that "too forward",
soundstage not enough.

So i wonder if the Palmer power supply really useful in increasing the size of soundstage ?

if yes, is the improvement noticable or even substantial ?
The Palmer is not cheap, so I'm considering either to sell the Young or upgrade it ...

Many thanks for your advice!

Hi barrylau125


yes, I am still using Young with Palmer.  It improves everything a lot, of course, including the sound stage.  I can hear a better separation of instrument.  If you like the sound signature of Young, I will recommend you get the Palmer.   (BTW, I am not an expert on sounds and I enjoy what Young and Palmer can give me.   I do not compare these with another system as these are the first and the only one system I have so far.)


You may try it before you buy as I saw that there is a demo (Palmer & Young) at the shop.  PM me if you want to know the shop name.
