    Tube amp for HD650

    To be honest, I don't completely remember how the stock tubes sound. I'm using the Mullard M8161/CV401. However, if you're new to this audiophile land, I can tell you with confidence any tube amp with stock tubes will be light years better than plugging straight into your phone. So if I were you...

    Tube amp for HD650

    I'll give my 2 cents... Generally-speaking, not much has changed in the past few years in tube amps to throw out older recommendations on this forum. Yeah, there are flavor-of-the-month new configs, but honestly a tube amp is based on decades-old technology, and while some of the intricate...

    ODAC + LD MKIII - Little Dot volume knob not working correctly anymore

    I'm completely embarrassed here and would probably wish I could delete my original post, if not for the hope that maybe some schmuck like myself will make the same mistake and come looking for a solution...   The issue was that I had the ODAC plugged into the Pre-Amp Output, not the Input. I...

    ODAC + LD MKIII - Little Dot volume knob not working correctly anymore

    Hi, I've had this setup for quite some time: Windows 10 --> ODAC --> LD MKIII --> HD 650   I recently got a new computer (both old and new computer have Windows 10). For some reason, the volume knob on the MKIII is no longer doing anything on my new computer. Well, it's not that it does...

    Serious popping, clicking with USB DAC

    Well that's great! That's pretty slick that your NAS can play music straight to the DAC. Those Synology's are really nice in general, good choice!   Glad you posted your solution, I'm sure it will help others.

    Serious popping, clicking with USB DAC

      Hi @H-25 ,   I'm not sure if you're still monitoring this thread 6 months later, but there is something about your situation that strikes me that no one else has mentioned (IIRC). You said that you have had the exact same problem on two different computers. This would lead me to believe...

    Tube amp for HD650

      Yes, I do. Sorry I should have clarified that. My setup is computer --> ODAC --> LDMKIII --> HD 650's. It's a great setup overall. I've played around with a few different tubes, I'm currently using the Mullar M8161/CV401 tubes, as I've been doing some experimenting with tube rolling, but the...

    Warmer tubes for Little Dot MKIII (and HD 650's)

    I have the Sennheiser HD 650's and the Little Dot MKIII. Overall I couldn't be happier with the setup. However, in the past year or two, I've started to have a lot of trouble with treble and high-pitched noises. I don't think these originate from headphones specifically, I have some hearing...

    Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide

      Well shoot, for 10 bucks it's worth a shot! The "fireworks display" sounds a little scary, but I do see a lot of other good comments on this thread about them. I'll give it a shot. How is the treble on these, would you say it's less "harsh" than some of the other tubes?

    Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide

    At the risk of being redundant...I have looked through this thread and not found an answer, so I figured I would give it a shot and see if anyone has thoughts.  I have the Little Dot MK III and I'm currently using the Voshkod 6ZH1P-EV, which I really like overall (although to be honest I don't...
