Thanks a lot. I've ordered a pair of Tungsram E88CC as I wasn't sure about messing around with the adapter. I'll let you know when I've had a chance to listen to them.

Hey all I have a LYR 2 with stock tubes and looking for recommendations to try out some new tubes. Currently using RS1x

Something a bit more recent. Pretty Flawless Lucifer on the Sofa by Spoon https://tidal.com/browse/album/213383156

I only noticed magnahifi.com have a Golden Sound logo https://magnahifi.com/digital-analogue-converters-dac/?pa_brand=holo-audio Hopefully they support you for all your hard work

Was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for me on this. I've been using the original uDAC v1 for about 12 years with a pair SR80i and Schiit LYR 2 with stock tubes. It's a combination I've been very happy with for a lot of my listening. I recently picked up a pair of RS1x and the LYR2 can...

The newer album is very good.

Can't recall seeing her been mentioned before. Irish female vocalist Ciara O'Connor. Mostly seems to do back up vocals with people like Dua Lipa. Shame, she needs to be up front.

This is a really beautiful album. Nice recommendation

There's some amount of rubbish on that list.   Tiesto? Flawless ? DeFuq. :D

I couldn't find a previous thread specific to XMAS.   Does anyone have any recommendations for XMAS Choir/Chorus/Choral  music   Cheers

Eleanor McEvoy  

Not sure if she was mentioned yet.   But one of the most amazing Irish female vocalists you're likley to ever hear.  

Oasis - Definitley Maybe Counting Crows - August and Everything After Massive Attack - Blue Lines. Portishead - Portishead Sneaker Pimps - Becoming X The Beatles - Rubber Soul Ocean Colour Scene - Moseley Shoals Paul Weller - Heavy Soul The verve - Urban Hymns Orbital - Orbital Snoop...

Hey   I was going to ask for similar reccomendations along the calm and quiet route if possible :)   Thanks!

Does anyone know a way you could use the uDac to bypass a sansa clip's internals?

That's one hell of a lot of "mistakes" to make in one year I would refrain from buying anymore for now. I take it you obviously have learned a bit about what you like/want from a headphone from those purchased. Take the next few weeks/months to crawl over the abundance of impressions...

My current headphone's are Grado SR80i's which I really like with rock/indie music. I've been looking at getting a new pair of cans specifically for Ambient/down tempo electronica and was thinking of the senn hd600's The only senn's I might be able to get access to besides the PX 100's which...

I apoligise in advanced if this is a very stupid question and for my ignorance. I have been given some Technic's hi-fi seperates which includes an amp EH-600 I don't know a whole lot about amps and was wondering if someone could take a look at the tech specs of the amp and advise me if it...
