Funny... I would prefer the brighter one of the two I think, so I will have to grab one of each to try with my LD1+ :)

As I said, who knows :) lol After all this talk of a new knob... I cannot find one I like anywhere :(

We want to seeeeee it :)

I just managed to pull mine off and mine was splined... maybe they used different potentiometers on different revisions or batches, who knows :)   EDIT: Ok so done a little bit of research and if you have a splined knob (which is more likely than a D-shaped one, and also munky said it was...

Hi Joe,  Not had chance to pull mine off yet, but can you recall what type of shaft it was? Was it a D-shaped shaft or was it splined?

I will definitely have a look into it... I know there's a US online store called potentiometer.com or something like that and they allow you to customize sizes and stuff :)

Has anyone pulled the volume knob off at all? How does it come off? Just thinking of replacing it with something with a bit of texture rather than it being smoother than my dad's head 

Hey guys, It's probably been mentioned somewhere before, but I can't see it, or find it, but could someone link me to the differences between the MUSES 01 and 02?   Or even better, could somebody detail it here? :) These are 2 channel amps aren't they? :P  

Will do! :)

Hi Munky, thanks very much for clearing that up, glad it's not just my amp/tubes! :) I can't say i've had enough experience with tubes and warm/cold sounding tubes/amps/DAC's, but I will get some to try out! :) Thanks again!

Ok thanks for that! I have some 'Valvo' 6CQ6 tubes.  Will maybe try some of the mullard m8161's :)

Yeah if I tap the tubes then I get the same noise... Guessing that this shouldn't happen? I'm pretty sure that my amp is set to low gain, but should I try switching it anyway?  It won't damage my headphones will it?

Hey guys, I get a hell of a lot of microphonics from my headphone cable... is this normal? I'm using Grado Sr125i's, and maybe about half the length of cable gives me a lot of 'dinging' noises if i knock it or even touch it.   Is this anything to do with gain? If it was set for the higher...

Agreed. Partially liberated gives a false idea... basically all it is, is separation of the driver (still within the sleeve) and the shell/cup. Which is what most of us would call 'opening-up' the cans.

I see your point! However I guess i'm a little ocd when it comes to the screws... they're supposed to be flush with the rest of the chassis, and for me, they MUST be flush :P lol   Good idea!
