    Hi all, I am in a head over toes whether I should get the RP3 Anniversary, or the RP6. The anniversary seems like a very good upgrade from what I am having, and having a good feeling since it is a half-century REGA packs, same as the anniversary for Dark Side of the Moon. But then again deep...

    XDuoo XD-05 Portable Dac/Amp Introduction - Impressions

    Yeah, I was reluctant before trying, and used a couple of others such as LME49720 etc, but made the dive into V5i anyway due to the peer pressures from this thread; and yes, its meant to be in there most of the times.

    XDuoo XD-05 Portable Dac/Amp Introduction - Impressions

    Wow, i am very surprised u guys havent move from XD05. I made my move to M11 Pro and sold my XD05, after the upgrade to Burson V5i, and my DAP stopped working. Mostly due to the travelling with DAP+DAC stack which wasnt so likeable. Now im a happy man, with my travelling setup S8F + M11. At...

    willsenton r8 tube integrated/amp/headphone amp

    Yeah, so i installed the Mullard EL34, mid a bit muffled, i guess need to let it burn in, will update when it starts reaching its nirvana. Roll in the 6SN7EH gold pins over willsenton's stock, its quickly showing improvements. Soundstage is a lot better, a bit forward. The details are...

    willsenton r8 tube integrated/amp/headphone amp

    Hi all, Ive received this amp with stock KT88 tubes. Have been using it on most days for about 30 days, from my LP player to the speaker. Now ready to start rolling. I am in an interest to go for EL34 and thinking of mullards. For the 6SN7 and 6SL7, which are drivers?

    Hi all, I looked up the ebay and saw some DEJs. I have the DNF610 readily available in my stash. Just that want to make sure if the DEJ is better sounding than the DNF610 or vice versa. (It is just me in the old times feeling envious of people with DEJ and feeling like owning 1 - now) Would...
