looks good @dobigstuff. How are the hd700s? what is your favorite tube combo with the hd700? I am really enjoying the GE JAN 6SN7WGTA and GE JAN 6AS7GA together. Lots of bass presence and great dynamics for the music I'm listening to currently which happens to be dubstep, lol

@Joong, what is a good and cheap linear power supply for the for the dac-x7? Do you know what plug type it uses?

@daftcombo, I don't think so. I can't tell a difference. I am using Toslink feeding from my yamaha cd player and it works great.

Just received my unit from massdrop. So far I am liking the detailed sound. It is an upgrade from what I had before in the fiio e10k. @Solurano, did you try a different usb cable?

@volly - I am finding that the hd-6xx/hd-650 are magical with this amp. Just so freaking musical :-)

Just ordered the TungSol 6SN7GTB and GE 6AS7GA combo to go with the 336SE I just picked up from Massdrop. I had the original 336 and had very fond memories of it back in 2006. Excited to be exploring this hobby again :-) Cheers!

Well, this is like the first time I have logged back into headfi since ~2008, so I feel like a new headfier again :) Just joined several mass drops including the ones for the sennheiser hd-6xx, darkvoice 336se tube amp (I had the original 336, and miss it everyday, lol), and the fxaudio dac-x7...

You can beat it Rick! We believe in you.

Bought an Asus EEEPC, love this little bugger.

whoohoo, glad i stumbled back into headfi and after an 8 month hiatus, i'm ready for some headphone nirvana Thanks for the message fitz about the meeting. I will try my best to make it. Pretty much everything in my sig is what i am bringing minus a few sources. Still have my amp, k340, and sony...

What? I didn't get an invite?! Looks like you guys had alot of fun. Maybe, i can come next time around.

Try searching for the elusive K4 electrostat/dynamic. I know lan has one and he really enjoys them. You can also check this website if you want to check out the whole akg line. However, i am not sure if its the whole thing. http://headphones.warzone.org/

Vienna Teng - Waking Hour

I've been on head-fi for awhile now and i have come to figure out my own taste in sound and preferences. All headphones have their own unique characteristics and sound and i feel i am not the one to judge which one sounds better or which headphone beats another. Like i said, they are unique in...

Chris, i know what you mean. I compared my zhaolu with my dac in the box and didnt noticed much of difference. The zhaolu had maybe 5 percent better detail, but it wasn't enough for me to warrent keeping it. So i just stuck with the cheaper dac. I think source is important no doubt about that...
