Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
So you exchanged the pads and that was it? I am hearing a lot of this... the pads soften and that affects the sound, and I guess it's it's also us getting used to the new sounds signatures... would you agree?- IvoTaze

Could it be that this guy didn't break in the DTCs enough? I heard they can change A LOT... but I am still watching his review, but I've seen mixed reviews of the DTCs so far thou. What's your take on them? UPDATE: Hmm... he just said it's a loaner and broken in.- IvoTaze

iFi audio iDSD Diablo - A portable reference done our way!
Hey @iFi audio @Sebastien Chiu, quick question for you guys: Is it possible to connect the line-level balanced output on the back of my iDSD Diablo to a single ended Amp? (To use it as a source DAC). I was considering purchasing or making a cable adapter that connects: ground & R+ to one RCA...- IvoTaze

Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide
And what do you guys think about these ones from 1979? For some reason the stamps on the boxes look too new... http://www.ebay.com/itm/6J1P-EV-6ak5-EF95-USSR-1979-Lot-of-4-pcs-/172091890525?hash=item281179db5d:g:OjcAAOSwnLdWtmOg Thanks once more :)- IvoTaze

Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide
So you didn't like these? Or maybe they needed some more time to break. So what say you? Avoid the ones with notches? I had some from the '75 in sight but they ran out of :( Where did you buy yours? I am being picky because I only have a limited amount of shipments allowed per year to...- IvoTaze

Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide
Absolutely! And somehow I feel I will end up sharing the same cult... I haven't tried my C3G yet and I am already looking forward to my next tubes. Anxious perhaps? Maybe, but I feel I am going to enjoy the different colors, that's why I want at least 2-3 options to play with, to compare, etc...- IvoTaze

Oh man, sorry: I meant to say Voshkod 6ZH1P-EV. For some reason I had the 23 in my mind, probably because it was mentioned on a newer post. Have you tried both? Are the 6N23P worth the effort of putting together such an adapter? Sorry for the confusion! And thanks for replying so fast gibosi :)- IvoTaze

Hey Guys! How have you been?! I have finally received my MK IV SE and HD-800-S! :) :) :) So far I am amazed with both of them, but as soon as I started to listen through the HD-800-S I noticed my entire music collection needed a severe upgrade, so I've been downloading a lot of new...- IvoTaze

Will definitely do... Thanks for the recommendations :) BTW, just received my Senns, it's a pitty I can only use them with my FiiO E17 for now... well, probably for a while, because I need to put a lot of paperwork in to get my LD out of customs! Apparently we are now enforcing...- IvoTaze

To soon to know, my new HD-800S will be here this Wednesday, and my amp is still going through customs and it usually takes days until they categorize and release shipments here in Argentina. Once I get my hands on them, I will still need to burn them both in. But don't worry, I am sure there...- IvoTaze
