Schiit Bifrost Uber Analog Upgrade
Installed Uber upgrade three days ago. Run the DAC 6 hours a day or slightly more for two days to burn in. It took me 20 minutes and fortunately no mishap. It is obvious that you have to align the LED's first then secure the board to the inner chassis, not connecting the board to its...- amandarae

Quote: Exactly! Like the VT-231 for example. If you run VT-231's on circuit with plate voltage designed for GTA or GTB then your beloved tube will not last as you have expected.- amandarae

6SN7 Tube Addicts
Hello, OT here but just want to ask if anybody have a lead for a pair of type 26/UX226 tubes? Preferrably "globe" type. I posted this here as I figure that enthusiast who collects 6SN7 tubes might know some leads for buying the type of tube I am inquiring. regards, Abe- amandarae

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Quote: Energetic, yes(because it has more power to deliver). Dynamic, no, IMO. I always have difficulties when terms "energetic" and "laid back" were use to contrast two equipment using different topology to begin with in how they differ in sound to a particular listener. I...- amandarae

Quote: Go for it! I have the LD MKIV and the Lyr. You will not regret the purchase. Those moments when you want to energize yourself at the very instant, plug to the Lyr. At times when you do not care about "audiophile" thoughts and just listen to feed your soul, plug in to the LD...- amandarae

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Quote: You are a good sport Doc! Anyways, please post your impressions using your 650 with the modi/magni combo. My daughter (pic below) got the bug ever since I let her try the 650. Big mistake on my part, I guess the SkullCandy I bought for her does not suit her anymore. I even...- amandarae

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Quote: I do not think that is correct. What about ECC83 (12AX7 ---> 12V heater), ECC82 (12AU7) etc. E88CC and ECC88 have differences. Yes, they can replaced each other but it depends on the circuit. The 6DJ8 can draw 365mA (at 1.8W), while 6922 draws 300 mA(1.5W). The difference is...- amandarae
