Happy as a Pig in Schiit: Introducing Modi Multibit
Not sure where to post this, but my modi multibit's coaxial input broke clean from the pcb. Rather than pay for repair I decided to DIY. I bought a neutrik rca jack and it fit beautifully into the chassis. The tricky part was figuring out which solder pad corresponded to signal and ground. The...- vrao81

Headamp Blue Hawaii Special Edition
Based on the date codes, SY0 and SY1, they are are Holland Made EL34, from 1950's, while the black base versions are later. Looks like they are very rare. See this page: http://www.tube-classics.de/TC/Tubes/Valvo%20EL34/EL34.htm- vrao81

Advise on Consonance Cyber 20 suitable tubes.
I also have the cyber 20b. I'm using a Raytheon 5814 which I recommend highly. A nice, laid back, lush yet detailed sound. I have also used RCA cleartops 12au7, these are cheap and widely available. But these have a more pronounced high end and are very forward. Still quite musical though. I...- vrao81

The Sennheiser HD580 Impressions Thread
I'll chime in..I've had my HD580's for 9 years and they are great. I've tried many other headphones but I keep coming back to these. They are just so easy to listen to, non-fatiguing, musical, but with so much detail! What more needs to be said! Best $115 I ever spent (on audio or elsewhere...- vrao81

Modifying the Xiang Sheng 708B [56K!!!!]
Can anyone confirm that the values for R107 and 207 are 1/2W 1kohm resistors and the headphone output resistors are 10 ohm 2W? On page 1 the input resistors are shown as 1/2 and 1 watt (don't know which one is correct), and page 1 also shows 2 W and 1 W for the output resistors. I just want to...- vrao81

What do you guys use for internal wire?
I want to replace some of the wire inside my tube headphone amp. I am looking at some low cost options. How about this wire: http://www.markertek.com/Cables/Bulk-Wire-Cable/Bulk-Audio-Cable/West-Penn-Wire-Corp/291-BLACK.xhtml?291 It is rated to 300V. Is that suitable for internal amplifier...- vrao81

The Vintage Dac & CD Player List/Review Thread
Surprised no one mentioned Rotel RCD-855. Cheap (should be around $100) and sounds great. Very smooth, musical, analog playback. Not the last word in transparency or detail, but musicality is great.- vrao81
