Here’s another feedback today from a client who ordered a Nikola Classic. He loves quality linear power supply but also want compact form with quality making Nikola Classic a perfect fit for his needs.
Hey Keetakawee,
The nikolas arrived in perfect condition, and I’ve been using one of them every day ever since. LOVE the sound, a huge improvement over the other zeroxone LPS I was using, at roughly 1/4th the size.
Best regards,
-Eric Pai
It’s great to see passionate audiophile liking the smallest possible linear power supply design. I fit everything I can in that box to deliver the best listening experience there. 🙂
Here’s a new feedback today from a client who ordered a custom highend set of Nimitra + Nikola. He also ordered JCAT NET Card XE with my highend SATA cable design for Samsung 860 Pro SSD, highend CAT 8.1 ethernet cables, and Nikola Signature linear power supplies for switches too.
I must say I have not been disappointed, far from it. I do not know if you are a drinker of wine, but in this country we say that some wines are “longs en bouche”, that is to say that they have a lingering effect on your taste buds, unlike others that merely good, even very pleasant to drink, but have very short-lived sensory effects… Well, your server is of the former kind and I am rediscovering my music, thanks to your expertise and very appropriate choice of hardware. And this is still on the dCS Network Bridge / Mark Levinson DAC combination, as my dCS Rossini is delayed because of the shortage of one component.
As a wine appreciator, I’m happy to hear he’s enjoying the after taste of Nimitra on rediscovering music collection for years to come. 🙂
I was going to wait for official release from iBasso global page first but tomorrow I may visit my parents so I decided to release DX220 Purist ROM update based on China’s release which should be the same. 🙂

Here’s a new feedback today from a client who ordered Nikola Signature to power Antelope Amari DAC in his studio. He also have plans to build custom Nimitra for his works later too.
I am enjoying the Nikola. Definitely sounding better as time goes by. It brings definiteness to the sound. I notice a bit more space and distance between everything. I perceive more darkness on the low end and extension. High end is smoother and more resolute.
Thank you. Bernie
Antelope Amari also have special locking connector and Fidelizer can build Nikola Signature with custom termination for the best studio qualities to work perfectly with his devices too. 🙂
