Takatsuki Electric TA-300B
HD800 + WA5 with Takatsuki 300B and Takatsuki 274B is absolutely amazing. I have only the standard tubes to compare to, but the difference is night and day. Highly recommend the combo.- imp96

Sylvania 6SN7GT vs General Electric 6sn7gt

High End DAC Recommendations
I am looking for a high end DAC. I am currently looking at Bricasti M1 or one of the Total DACs. Has anyone heard either one of them or preferably both of them? From what I seen on forums there is huge variance in opinions between all the high end DACs so I am not sure what to believe. These two...- imp96

Looking for a high-end all-in-one upgrade recommendation.
I think a better route to take would be to get an amplifier in the 3000 dollar range and then use the conductor as a DAC. This way the next upgrade will be easier and the current upgrade will probably be better then buying a all in one combo again. I have the HD 800 and the Conductor and got...- imp96

FLAC, where can i get more?
You shouldn't be asking how to illegally download music in a public form. THE thing is you would have to be a PIRATE to do that and still keep the authorities at BAY.- imp96

It should completely satisfy your needs for movies, gaming and any low quality music playback like from youtube or pandora. This setup will even be great for music especially if you...- imp96

Headphones to complement HD 800
What about the 560, are they worth considering or are they over hyped? I have read a few review that suggest they are better the Audeze Lcd X. I don't think I will have the chance to audition them and don't want to gloss over them if they actually do live up to the hype.- imp96

Headphones to complement HD 800
I never heard any Audeze but I was under the impression that Lcd 3 was a better version of Lcd 2. What makes the 2 better then the 3.- imp96

Thanks for your suggestions. I have the conductor and wa5 (w/ parts upgrade). As for Grado's, I heard the Ps 1000 and was disappointed by the sound quality and the fit/build quality.- imp96
