Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide
I already have the 6N6P-i as power tubes. You said the 6N6P-ir are more laid back than the 6N6P-i, right? If so, I will try to get some... I'm loving the Mullard's so far. The Highs are tamed but lush. They give a bit more punch. Overall a more "organic" sound. They go really well...- Riddick

Mullard 8100's arrived today... After some time burning in the Voskhod's for 70h, I decided to give the Mullard's their try... Out of the Box I think hear they fit a bit much better with the Beyerdynamic T90. I'm not afraid to leave the volume knob alone, anymore... I'm afraid the Tube...- Riddick

Sennheiser HD 598 CS Closed Back
Amazon had them for 87 Euros, yesterday. Now they're back at 140 Euros... Could'nt resist for that price. Received them today, few hours in listening... Really like the Mids on these. They will replace my HD 25-1 II's for portable listening for sure...- Riddick

Review of the sennheiser HD 598 CS (close version)
Just got a pair of these from Amazon for about 90 Euros. Couldn't resist for that price! Anyone compared them to the HD 25-1 II? When they pass the test, they'll replace them, just for comfort alone?- Riddick

Excuse me, if this is a dumb question... I want to change my Headphone chain a bit, because I want to play my Vinyl records through my Headphones. The new chain would be as followed: Technics SL-1200 & Laptop w/ FiiO E10k -> Pioneer SX535 (Phono & Aux) -> Tape-out -> (Dynavox TPR-2...- Riddick

My power tubes are the 6N6P-i, to be exact... I'll have to say I like the sound in complimentation with the Voskhod's right out the box! The sound signature is bright overall, but not harsh... The details and soundstage are phenomenal to my (new to tube-sound) ears... I think I've...- Riddick

I have to say, the Voskhod's make a HUGE improvement for me with the T90's... As I consider to buy the Mullard's also later this year, what are your "go to" Tubes with your Beyer's? Do you like the Voskhod's or the Mullard's more? What Power Tube's do you use with either?- Riddick

So, you have this problem with all your Tubes, or only with the Voskhod's? Paradise Lost? Great. Wanted to revisit them anyhow... I listen to Flac's 98% of the time, since I have the T90's...- Riddick

Can you recommend me a Song for Reference? I think I read a review of the T90's somewhere and the reviewer said something with a problem with cymbals, because of the Beyer-Peak... I'll post a link, if I find it... nvm Listening to Niagara's "City Walk" right now, and all appears to...- Riddick

The new Tube Set arrived savely, today. The first thing I noticed when I plugged them in was that they are dead quiet, whereas the Stock Tubes left a slighty hum in one Channel. I'm impressed! First time listening I noticed an increase in the details and it's slightly more "airy"...- Riddick

You can find T90's still everywhere in Germany. And maybe the old Production of Slayer Albums was something different. We're talking about Rick Rubin, after all. :)- Riddick
