Elemental Watson Class-A Valve/Mosfet Hybrid Headphone Amplifier (Review added)
Thank you for your response. I'd rather not risk it. For my friend, the 6HM5 tubes work very well in Little Dot in the EF95 mode. They have a very good sound. But EW may have a different design. I would rather try only the EF95 / 6AK5 tubes. I like the EW sound with JAN 5654 tubes very much...- kuko61

Reply to review by 'kuko61' on item 'TRN V20 in-ear monitor'
For this price absolutely outstanding sound. I like them much more than KZ ZSR, ZS5, ZS6. L-shaped sound signature similar to LZ-A2. But at a much lower price.- kuko61

I think, that wires inside the headphones are a soldered properly in my case. I have tried a few test sounds, and in my opinion, the headphones are in the phase after turning the left connector to right position.- kuko61
