"Akin To A Component Upgrade"
Fitted a couple of these to a £3k DAC, wow what a difference. Simply could not go back. The music is more fleshed out, clear and times superbly. They appear to remove noise which is you're not aware of until it's removed. I did not think they would improve an already very good DAC, but they did, well done to Russ and his team.

"A Noticeable Difference."
I bought a pair of the MiniZaps to try in my system, plugging them into the spare outputs of my CD player. They were left for two weeks to settle in, before I did a 'with and without' comparison. The difference was very noticeable: with the MiniZaps in place there was a much improved tightness in instrumental imaging, openness in the soundstage and lowering of the noise floor. Interestingly enough, those differences weren't really apparent when they were plugged into spare pre-amp outputs: but I guess the results will vary in different systems. They are certainly one of the best value-for-money 'accessory' additions I've made to my system.

"So Pleased!"
This is my third purchase of mini-Zappa:One one DAC
Two XLR on pre-amp
And now two phono on pre-amp
There is a “burn-in” period of up to two weeks - there have been two noticeable improvements: firstly the stereo image on TV sound and secondly the improvement in detail. The investment I has not been cheap but is really worth it.
Highly recommended!

"Exceptional Value For Money"
I have tried these in the digital out of my NDX2 and Oppo 203. In both cases the difference was immediate with better clarity on vocals, a naturalness to piano music and a more analogue presentation. Now looking to see where else I can add them to the system.

"Great Value Upgrade."
I have three of these plugged into the back of my Naim one box system. Two are connected with Russ Andrews RCA to BNC adapters. In my circumstances they gave a very noticeable cleaner and therefore clearer sound. Essential value for money upgrade to squeeze everything you can out of your system. Thanks RA.
