Well, I disabled everything except hiFace but the real culprit was the audio setting in Link. Switched to auto detect (5.1) and voila!   Games and video seems to work but not music which isn't a big a deal anyway.

Onboard Realtek didn't work either, sob!   I disabled hiFace, stereo from Steam/Link settings, audio streaming enabled... Any ideas?

I wonder if you more tech-savvy people could clarify something for me.   I recently got a Steam Link which works fine except no audio when streaming to my TV. The hookup is: ethernet cable from mb to 4G router -> ethernet to Link -> HDMI to TV.   There is sound when not streaming, that is...

  Hope it's 1 because one pair ordered from her.  

Thank yous for showing the direction.   6N6P-IR seems like a reasonably priced quality power tube. Anything specific to look for when deciding on a pair, low OTK number?

I think it's about time to find some spare power tubes.   I've been away from the tube rolling & audio world for years now and there's over 200 pages of text here so please bear with me.   The bass part is a bit too subdued at the moment so I'm asking if that can be remedied with other pair...

My experience with the MK III has been very positive indeed.   7 years of almost daily use with stock power tubes & M8161 drivers totalling thousands of hours. No noise with HD650, no sign of wearing out.   Brilliant.

I have the MS1i and AD700 with LD MKIII and tomorrow I should be wearing a like-new pair of HD 650. I'll try to post some impressions if I'm bothered.

There ought to be some Black Friday sales in Europe too, right?

Quote: That's a good link, thanks. Less than 200€ is my target though.

I'm looking for good deals on the Sennheiser HD 600 or HD 650, both new and used. I live in Finland so only European sellers/sites are preferred, sure all others are welcome too. There was a great bargain a while back on the Play.com (£99 for a pair of HD 600) but sadly (and typically) they...

Argh, there's something wrong with the edit feature, it's me

I couldn't find any significant differences between 44.1 kHz and 48kHz SoX (default settings) or PPHS. I used several pieces including some classical. My hiFace is a few weeks old and my system is: win xp 32bit sp3 -> foobar KS -> hiFace BNC 1.03 -> Little Dot DAC_I -> Little Dot MKIII -> Audio...
