    What phones are used in movie Shopgirl?

    I just got the dvd from Netflix the other night. As soon as I saw the scene you mentioned, I thought there must be a thread about those phones. Surely, some astute head-fier had seen them and long ago identified them. I ran a search and was dismayed to find only one unanswered question. Although...

    6SN7 Tube Recommandations?

    Quote: Originally Posted by Len Kev's a great guy, but like all vendors, he tends to promote the products he's got to sale (in stock). I think right now he's really pushing the Holland "Pope" 6SN7s. Forgot to add: Kev also doesn't usually sell his "premium" tubes to people who haven't...

    6SN7 Tube Recommandations?

    When I retubed my Zotl I called Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio and was very happy with the recommendations and results. The 6sn7's and 12at7's he sent me were quite an improvement. You should talk to him as he really knows his tubes and can give some genuinely educated advice.

    Good amp for Grado's

    I owned the 323's and the RS-1's for some time. I personally found that they paired extremely well with the MicroZotl I was using at the time. Particularly the RS-1's. The two had an obvious synergy due to their respective sonic personalities. Grado detail and Zotl lushness was very tasty...

    Another is it really worth it question - HD580/stock v. HD650/Zu or Silver Dragon?

    Anyone own both the AKG501 and the Senn HD650?

    I've owned both but not simultaneously. The akg501's were sent back within a couple of weeks because I felt they sounded "thin". I found them to be one of my least favorite headphones. At the time I had a pair of hd600s and didn't find what I needed in those either. Now I've been settled in with...

    First Impressions of my new 650's

    Quote: Originally Posted by JMT "prepare yourself for some sonic changes as they settle in." I've got about 250 hours on mine and they're still evolving. In my system now, they sound kind of fleshy, beefy, thick and palpable compared to my old RS-1's. All the detail is still there...
