Should I retire my HRT Music Streamer
I just ordered one, intrigued to hear it. I don't need balanced so got the D10s. At that price you cant go wrong. Also it seems these DAC's can accept op-amp rolling. The Burson V5i (Dual x1) look like a good match for this level of product. There is a lot of DAC's in the sub $200 price range...- agisthos

I like it when people do product comparisons but rating things across 30 categories is a bit absurd.- agisthos

Its a defective unit, the crackling sound. I tried to recreate it with ANC on various modes and vigorous movement, no crackling.- agisthos

Rockna Wavelight
I read the Superbestfriends thread on the Wavelight and saw a common complaint that the SE output seemed so bad (compared to the XLR) they thought something was wrong with it. But it could have been a bad unit, and they send the same unit on tour to each other. So what have you guys found...- agisthos

Imagine your wife comes home and a bunch of audiophiles are sitting round a table with lines of white powder and plastic gram bags, talking giddily about the increased transparency.- agisthos

That sucks to hear about the earpads, as the leather on them looked very decent for $30 replacements.- agisthos

I think it may be just a certain production batch that could have the issue, not all of them.- agisthos

Post the links to these spare parts. A few people here saying the headband comes unglued. Mine seems tight and firmly attached.- agisthos

Should I retire my HRT Music Streamer
I still use mine too! Version II+. It must be about 12-13 years old which I use daily for my computer audio setup. It just sound really good and its a shame HRT disappeared just before the wave of interest in little DAC devices hit. They could have been huge. I would be interested in your...- agisthos

Mark Levinson № 5909 headphone
I found the No5909 benefited from about 50 hours of burn in (using Isotek and Tellurium Q discs). Those hissing and popping noises the burn in uses seem to take the slight edge of the highs. Now it sounds quite smooth. I could also just be going deaf, and that's why the highs seems smooth.- agisthos

No it does not. It has a number on there WPCB-02010-0200 That does not mean its a year date. The main pcb below has the number WPCB-02057-0100. Does this mean it was made in year 2057? It does have a stocker date on it; 01/14- agisthos
