    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    this meant touching it with the soldering iron, just melt it and fixed it up again..?

    Thank you! When you say reinforced, did you re-solder all the joints/welds?

    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    Hi, relatively new owner to a crack... been liking it so far with my HD800S... and gaming with it is great too... maybe just that lately it's been giving me cracks/static at random moments, and I may need to check the solder joints with chopsticks for any incorrect joints... but looking forward...

    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    Oh ok, the reason I didn't get it was that bottlehead support on fb chat told me just to get the basic one.. is the speedball really a big difference? which is the power tube? the big one in the middle?

    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    Just the ones that came with the stock equipment. It says here on the instruction manual, 6080 vacuum tube, and a 12AU7 vacuum tube. are there any recommended tubes to upgrade? preferably something with soundstage as that's what I noticed that disappeared when I used the crack.. but any nice...

    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    hey, fairly new to OTL tube amps and assembled a crack a few months ago. Actually the experience with the HD800S I have is kind of underwhelming. Sounded pretty normal to me, despite all the hype the crack gets with senns cans. Was just wondering maybe I should change the stock tubes? I have no...

    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    how's the HD800S with the bottlehead crack? I actually got myself a crack and a Aune x8 magic dac with burson vivid op amps.. I must say the soundstage of the HD800S disappeared when I connected it to the crack.. the vocals are a lot more emphasized though..
