Dethonray Pegasus SG1 - BT DAC/Amp Combo
Yeah that makes more sense to me. It was weird because android that was using LDAC sounded worse than the PC with apxHD (and both of them are around 10cm away at the time) I am trying to see if I can just return it and get gryphon or smth, cause I dont know if its going to be worth to have...- didxogns1

Dethonray Pegasus SG1 - BT DAC/Amp Combo
True I didn't expect the portable Bluetooth gear to sound the same as the desktop setup that costs more than double. Still, I was curious how it compares.- didxogns1

Dethonray Pegasus SG1 - BT DAC/Amp Combo
So here is another update on my Dethonray Pegasus SG1. I tried to deal with HIFIgo but their response was rudimentary at best. They said its probably because my thumb was on the glass/ because I was holding onto the device. Additionally, they were also claiming that it's because the product...- didxogns1

It's actually both lololol. I'm reaching out to hifigo to return the thing cause lost connection, pop, and random crackling sound is stressing me out. It's so unfortunate that this is not the streamed lined experience I was hoping for.- didxogns1

Dethonray Pegasus SG1 - BT DAC/Amp Combo
Just got my sg1! First of all, I don't know what's wrong with mine but I had some connectivity issue. The sound still stops when I fiddle with the volume nob sometimes and I don't know what's going on. It plays now, but this is definatly not the stream lined experience I'm used to. So I...- didxogns1

Schiit Valhalla Tube Rolling thread.
Some more tube rolling. Previously, I opted for the preferred series 7025 as my favorite. Plugging this to heddphone, everything sounded so intimate lively and fun! However, when I used VH2 as a preamp, connecting to KGSS DX - Stax L700, everything it sounded so hollow and lifeless :( I...- didxogns1

Schiit Valhalla Tube Rolling thread.
Btw have anyone experienced any issues swapping to 12AT7/cv4003? They have significantly higher gain factors (60), while 6n1p and its equivalents have gain factors of 33. Heck, I am currently using 12AX7 which has a gain factor of 100. I am a little bit concerned because I read that using a...- didxogns1

After some burn-in, I still didn't like the brimar cv 4033. Additionally, I wanted to experiment with the power tube, so I got ecc99. Tldr: I think the 12ax7 is a very good place for people to experiment. I tried the PREFERRED SERIES 7025, which is a chinese copy/ reproduction of mallards...- didxogns1

I only had it for a week. So hopefully it will change. Burn-in is such a mystery area to me.- didxogns1

Schiit Valhalla Tube Rolling thread.
Hi, I have a question about the tube recommendation. I recently purchased a pair of cv4033 from 1970 after a lot of positive reviews in this thread from tubemonger. Link is https://www.tubemonger.com/Brimar_CV4033_NOS_NIB_1970_Prem_CV4003_STC_England_p/2040m.htm I do like the detail that...- didxogns1

having output resistor doesn't really hurt the sound quality thou. I think it affects battery performance and maximum volume but that's it Seems like an effective solution that really doesn't deserve to be frowned upon- didxogns1
