Thank you for your reply! I prefer a snug fit inside my ear (snugged up against the opening) and it sounds like the tips my pushes the Trio’s out a little bit further…. Thank you confirming and saving me some time and money!

Do the Trio’s sit further outside your ears with the Coreir tips? They look pretty long.

I just “bought” my wife a pair of golden Grado’s. I’m so excited for her! Thank you for tip Plakat! In reality I hope she likes them…I fell in love with her because she liked to watch American football. It’s great when your partner gets involved in you passions.

The post punk version in Deutsch would be epic!

There is definitely a premium placed on some IEM’s - I agree with you there. But it doesn’t take anywhere near the same amount of time (and time is money) to reverse engineer someone else’s work and then sell it at a discount.

Thank you for sharing your recommendation - I had a bad feeling the WA8 and the tubes might have right synergy with PS series! It’s just that the WA8 is just out of reach at retail prices…and the WA11 was within. Guess it time to work on those patience! Does anyone in the Bay Area (CA) have...

I recently added a Grado PS1000e to my stable! I'm looking for a portable amp and have read favorable reviews of the Woo Audio WA11 - has anyone used this amp? Or maybe the Woo Audio WA8?

They are the 2021 version. What is the difference with the headband? Tried looking it up; do the earlier versions come with a cushion? And the later a suspension strap? In your last pic that your volume was @ 1:00 - do the RFT ECC82 tubes tame the power some?

Thank you for confirming! I promise not to curse your name when the day comes when I need to remove them!

Are these the Pulse Tube Store Adapters you’re using? I’d like to make sure before ordering! LINK

I’m still learning about tubes, but from what I was able to pick up, the 6922 works with a filament voltage of 6.3V, and the 12AU7 run at 12.6V. I wonder if theres a compatibility issues at play here?

Are you using the tubes that came with the LP?

So after spending more then a couple of days reading about passive volume control, I ended up grabbing the Nobsound passive preamp based on the positive reviews. Is it perfect? (Shrug) I’m not positive, but for $60 my setup sounds much better, and more importantly it will allow me more time to...

I actually wrap my cable around my ears - eliminates the issue with the weight. It also helps with bass by maintaining the seal better! I did what you recommended BTW and removed the wire from my cable (It made it easier to wrap the cable around my ear!).

Thank you for taking the time to point me in the right direction! Interesting suggestion about a passive volume control…I really didn’t consider this. I’ve been looking at passive preamps from Khozmo, Luminous, and Goldpoint - the Luminous Axiom looks decently priced. Looks like I’ve got a...
