Yep! M-10 is the one to get IMHO. Listening to it again & it's VERY GOOD with the H3 headphone. Switching back & forth with the Fostex TH900 off the Oppo HA-1 in balanced mode from same source, Sony A17 & I prefer the H3 on most songs. I love my 900s so that says a lot for the KS. Who knows it...

I've had the KS H3/M-20 now for about 6 weeks. When I 1st got it I had a lot of popping & crackeling & was thinking "oh gee, here we go again". But on advice from e-friends I just hooked it up to my Oppo HA-1 dac & it hasn't been off since. Since day 3 it has been sounding great & over time only...

Finally got my ADs today, three days short of 9 weeks . Now for some serious listening. Will also leave them on for a few days to see if their is any audible change. Based on what I've heard plus my own experiences with Audeze & HiFiman cans there shouldn't be much. Out of the box they sound...

Wow, today must have been a huge shipping day for you Dan cause I just received my shipping notice from PayPal & my order was from the 21st! So Happy! ...and I'm one of the 1st to get the new paint job - not sure if that's good or bad! Anyway they're making great progress if they're shipping...

Good point, I hadn't thought of that. We will be the "Guinea Pigs" for the new process. Still I don't think Dan would make the change if he couldn't do better! At least I hope I'm right!:confused_face(1):

An FYI to any other HeadFiers who have been waiting on their Alpha Dogs - I ordered mine on Nov. 21st & inquired about them since as of this Thursday it will have been 8 weeks. I promptly heard back from Dan & here is what he said... " our paint shop has been HIGHLY unreliable, we're moving to...

Quote: I like the way you think, must be an Austin or at least Texas type of thinking!    I screwed up & bought it to early & got stuck with the cheap one. Now I'm beating myself up about it!

It really is too bad Jack or his team didn't design a lip of some sort around the glass but to be honest until the issue was mentioned I never gave it a thought. This is not a portable amp & the glass is quite heavy so once it is in place it will stay there. I have a glass topped coffee table...

I spent my first weekend with the new WA7 hooked up to my desktop pc rotating my listening between my hd800, both LCD2s, & my he500.  First let me say that I found that the WA7 sounds very, very good with the Senns., as good as my crack/speedball amp - something I wasn't expecting. Also, unlike...

Great point! Other than comparison testing the gold pins this weekend, this may be the one tube amp I should just treat as a SS amp & do as you say. It will certainly save me money compared with some of my other tube amps where I have spent about as much or more on tunes as I paid for the amp...

Yeah I know I'll need to get thinks rearranged to make some room around my desktop or a laptop to fully utilize the WA7 fully. My wife's insistence on having it perminantly located in the living room has kind of thrown me a curve cause I had made very different plans for how to set it up. So now...

Well, I finally got my silver WA7 today.  I feel like I've been waiting for over a month.  Oh yeah, I have. Had enough time so far to install the stock tubes & use my ipod5 as a source with my HD800s.  Even brand new, it sounded very good with them.  I tend to prefer them with my OTL amps & off...

Man I'm dying here. It says mine won't be here until early March & I thought I ordered early. Oh well... I would love to hear more feedback on how it sounds with different headphones like the HD800, HE500 or HE6, LCD2 & 3, Beyer 880 600 ohm, etc. it may be a little early for tube rolling...

Did more tube rolling in the my Earmax today & end up with 3 Telefunkens straight across. That combo with the HD650 & the SAA cable is pure magic. It is pretty clear to me, even if I hadn't read it in some old German reviews from the mid-90s, that the Earmax was voiced for the HD6xx series of...
