Quote: Don't say "sorry" man, that's lame. You gave advice and your opinion, you didn't offend anyone and even if you did, it's your opinion, don't apoligize.   I don't know anything about electrical engineering and very little to nothing about audio but what I did notice during these...

Why is anyone still considering this company? The build quality of my re-shell was horrible and they completely ignored my e-mails after that, they pretty much ruined my IEM's.

On my quest to eliminate annoying background noise, I have tried swapping output tubes. Next step is to swap driver tubes, which driver tube would you guys recommend me ? (I use a tung-sol 5998 as output tube).    

Bought a pair of tung sol 5998 tubes. These work together with the standard (the one that came with the kit) "little" tube, right?

I'd post this on the bottlehead forum but I'm still awaiting my approval.   There is a possibility that one of my LEDs (HLMP-6000) is broken, I know bottlehead will ship me new LEDs if I ask for it but shipping x LEDs from America to Europa seems "meh..."    Called my local electronics...

Quote:   Will do :)    

My Bottlehead Crack OTL amplifier should be ready next week, looking for a good source: pc -> ??? -> Crack -> hd650. Any ideas?

The cable connector in the IEM crumbled... out of nowhere...

Received my tf10 re shell last week.   Fit is good, SQ is good. Build quality: lot's of bubbles, not the color I asked for & cable sockets too big, one IEM fell off resulting in a small crack on the inside of the shell.   Will try to write a more detailed review later.

Hi Aaron, Your Bottlehead OTL Headphone amplifier kit is ready to ship. I look forward to sending you your new amplifier and hope you have fun building and listening to your new amp. Kindest Regards, Eileen Schmalle / Bottlehead Corp.   Jeej jeej jeej, let the fun begin =)

Quote:   Hey, listen, didn't mean to offend anyone. All I meant with my first post was: Careful trading watches, it is very easy getting fakes and watches have a HUGE target audience compared to the handful of headphone enthousiasts. I've seen well respected people do stupid things...
