The Grace Design Dante Option Module for m108 Microphone Preamplifier/ADC (Upgrade) enables Dante connectivity for your m108 unit. It provides eight channels of outputs and inputs to other Dante-enabled devices, at sample rates up to 192 kHz, and is ideal for use in live, studio, broadcast, and commercial installation applications. This upgrade is designed for m108 units that are in the field and requires customer installation. New m108 customers can choose a factory-installation option at point of purchase.

This option is powered by the Dante Brooklyn II module, which provides fast synchronization, low-jitter clocking, and ultralow latency. It allows for four unique clock architecture concepts, with the module functioning either as a clock master or clock slave. The Dante Option Module features two Gigabit Ethernet ports for operating the m108 in full redundant mode.

Q: 4. Are these $100 better than the HD600s?

A: I will address some of these questions I see here. Some posters would have you waiting forever for a price drop. I haven't listened to the HD600s. I find the HD650S well worth the money. I find them comfortable to wear and I have a big head.The sound is superior to the HD598s which I do own. The one drawback to the 650's is that the cord is long and bulky. You will also need an adapter to use them on a phone or tablet. This would also apply to the HD600s as well. To me either these headphones are in your price range or they are not. If not look elsewhere for cheaper.

A: The headphones are very comfortable on their own and can wear them for hours. But I do find them pressing on my plastic frame glasses annoying. You will feel the eyeglass stems pressing against you. If you adjust the headphones on your head if will also adjust your glasses on your nose at the same time. I do without the glasses and just enjoy the music.

Q: 7. Is this HD650 comes with black or silver drivers? There is a sound quality improvements with the silver ones. Thank you very much!

A: All the critical parts I can see on either side are silver/metallic. There is plenty of black plastic in there, too, but it all looks like structural support for the silvery parts. I took off the earcup padding and thin foam cover, but that's as much disassembly as I feel safe doing.
