Click on the photo above to see a big set of photos from the Village Headphone Meet and V-MODA After-Party! I had such a good time. Heard some great portable gear from ALO (I like the National so much, I bought one) and really enjoyed playing with the AlgoRhythm...- burnspbesq

Tube Branding (or Re-Branding) Question
I recently ordered a RCA clear-top 12AU7 and four Tung-Sol 5687s from Tube Depot. When they arrived, the "RCA" turned out to bear the "United Electron" logo, and the "Tung-Sols" bear the "Lewis & Kaufman" name and a "Los Gatos" logo. Any chance that these are in fact what I thought I...- burnspbesq

192/24 Ayres Coming Soon
Just got off the phone with the dealer from whom I ordered an Ayre QB-9 last weekend. Ayre can't fill his order right now. They are temporarily out of stock because they have stopped manufacturing QB-9s that are limited to 96/24. The 192/24s will be available in "a few weeks."- burnspbesq

Amarra First Impressions
After reading about this software package in a review of the Ayre QB-9, I downloaded and installed the demo version on Friday night. My desktop rig is not half bad: iTunes running on a MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard), feeding digital signal out via a Kimber Kable USB cable to a Benchmark DAC-1 USB...- burnspbesq

Klipsch Custom 3 Impressions?
Anyone given them an extended listen and want to share? The inclusion in TAS' Golden Ear awards, plus a $100 price advantage vs. SE 530s and Triple-Fis, have the potential to change the game in the high-quality IEM space. Certainly got my attention. I'm currently using SE 530s with a Predator.- burnspbesq
