    Hey everyone, I've been looking for some Sylvania Chrome Tops for my Ember, and found these on eBay. Would this be a good purchase/are they the correct type of valve?  ...

    Ok, so Jeremy doesn't have any more of the Sylvania..any other 6SN7 tubes that are comparable that he might have in stock? Or a good place to find the Sylvania maybe? EDIT: Is this the Sylvania Chrome top you speak of? If so, is that price reasonable....?

    The AKG K7XX Massdrop First Edition Thread

    The Ember performs exceptionally well with the K7XX's. There is no power draw problems with them paired, and they will sound perfect so I would definitely get the Ember Edit: Yes it out performs amps at its price bracket and amps way above its price bracket, and it scales great with better tubes

    So, does anyone know how you can buy the larger volume knob for the Ember, I REALLY want it, looks cool. I am ordering the SC with (hopefully if they are in stock) the Sylvania Chrome top and the 6SN7 adapter. I also want to put a knob into that order

    The AKG K7XX Massdrop First Edition Thread

    Eh..what are you going to use them with, PC? I'm assuming so since gaming. Well if 100 is your max, I'd recommend just getting a good amp and waiting on the DAC. Perhaps the Schiit Modi or Vali ( I'd recommend the Vali). I decided to wait on the DAC myself, as my PC is fairly good, but a good...

    Just got my 7XX's!! It sounds great with the amp...like holy crap does it sound superb. Thanks to everyone for recommending this amp and thanks for all the help you all have given!   Also, I've got a 12au7 Tesla valve and a 12ax7 JJ valve (the stock one). Is the stock one worth keeping? Also...

    ROG SupremeFX 8-Channel High Definition Audio CODEC Thats the soundcard that my motherboard has, but that doesn't really say much. Either way, which DAC would you recommend between the Modi and the ODAC?

    Not to be rude, but I don't think you really read through the previous posts before this. I already have an amp, and I am wondering if the onboard sound card of my Asus Hero VI is good enough not to bottleneck my rig

    I'm not sure the exact name of the sound card, but it is the one on the Asus Maximus Hero VI, which is advertised to have a 'better' sound card

    So, new questions my friends... Ok, so I am a bit worried about my audio system, as it is running directly from my PC to my amp via a 1/8 jack to RCA. For listening on my m50's, it sounds beautiful; however, I am worried that when I start listening to the k7xx's that it won't be so good. I...

    Mhhmmmmmm. The sound of this amp even makes my m50's sound beautiful. Listening to Mumford and sons brings tears to my eyes with these....
