pyeekzero   Speaker setup items. Amazing Custom Collabs like the TH-X00 and replacement parts (tubes, cables etc.)

I have finally gotten around to be able to get full size headphones again and the HE400i and DT1770 deals caught my eye since my budget is about $400. I know the DT 1770 is very very new and I also have no experience with planars. I listen to a wide variety of music. Any help is appreciated.  ...

Sweet, more tubes. I couldn't find the 4015s but I'm currently waiting for the sovteks. Can't wait

One question I have and I've tried to search without finding anything. When I see people mod their amps, I always see people change their caps and thne"bypass" their output caps with other ones. What exactly does that mean? Anyone?

I ordered caps and are currently waiting for them. I'm not sure how soon I can work on it since I'm going on vacation. I'll post the results when I'm done

I agree that the Ediswans sound better with the LDII++ I had posted this earlier in my impressions. It might be the reason why the Ediswans were included instead of the mullards. I have HD580s and SR125s

ok, so I've finally found little time to use my grados with the amp. To me in general it is really GREAT with grados. The lower mid and bass really helps the grados out and the highs sound very nice. The one problem you might find with this amp is the upper mids. The one thing that I noticed...

Also, is there a difference between DNE330 and DNE330L? I'm also looking for a pcdp but I only see the DNE330L at target.

It compresses the sound regardless? Wow, that doesn't sound good at all...

Hi Rain_UK I recently posted in the other II++ thread my impressions (didn't want to hijack yours) and I couldn't agree more with your impressions. I guess if you're hearing the same thing then my impressions are correct! Yes the upper mids does seem to have been brought foward a bit. I have...

Anyone know anything other than caps that I can change? Thanks

First of all I don't think you can just say that the Ediswan sound better. I think it fits the II++ more and the mullards the II+ more. I wouldn't go so much to say that it is "ideal" because its all about preference and also this is an "budget" tube amp. You have to keep in mind that it does...

Ok, so I read the thread before where it was said that there are 1 or 2 caps that can be changed on the LD2+. I am willing to take the dive to do this and even try it out on the LD2++ but I lack the knowledge of which caps the ones mentioned actually. I can do a pretty good soldering job...

One thing I forgot to mention is that the II+ is a little louder than the II++ the volume was about the same for a little past 11:30 on the II+ and a little before 12:30 on the II++ (referring to hr hand if it were a clock)

I have Senns HD580 and Grados sr-125 I think it sounds pretty good with both of them. Just a little different from the II+ and nope, no flash for me, I have had no problems with mine so far. Also, my LED is orange, not the dimmer blue others have reported.
