Schiit Asgard 3 - Impressions Thread
Dear Mr. Stoddard, I've been an Owner and Lover of the Asgard 2 since it's original release. I've always felt it to be as good sounding as my Elecrocompaniet gear ( Superb ). Your Valhalla 2 with outstanding glass is even better ( Russian Tubes costing $400ish, phew ) . So, I'm a Schiit...- tonykaz

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Sennheiser HD580/600/650 love the Schiit Asgard, Asgard 2, Valhalla 2 and that Bottlehead . I own the Asgard 2 which presents a consistent, sweet class A sound. I've heard the tube Valhalla and Bottlehead, both are amazing and worth owing if I didn't already own the superb Asgard2. Tony...- tonykaz

Feliks Audio Elise Impressions Thread – a New Start (please read first post for summary)
Mr. hypnos1 on PSVane 6SN7, Thank you, I figured if anybody knew it'd be you lads. The EL11 pairs sell for way-less on Ebay, you're right! The PSVane tubes are rather pretty and come in beautiful little boxes ( is the packaging worth $225? ). Having said all that, I'm...- tonykaz

Feliks Audio Elise Impressions Thread – a New Start (please read first post for summary)
PSVane tubes. Have any of you Feliks lads any experience with this Tube Company?, they're a $150 option on some of the amps. Retail seems to be $300 pair, $150 single. I think they come "Standard" on the New Euforia Amp. Tony in Michigan- tonykaz

Chord Electronics ☆ Poly ☆ (wireless & microSD module for Mojo) ☆★►USEFUL INFO on 1st PAGE!!◄★☆
Thank you Mr.Tumyum, Wireless Mojo : that's a good one. It's probably worth it to have the Mojo wireless, providing you own suitable wireless headphones. I like your concept of simply listening to music, not trying to be analytical while trying to relax. Still, I think this...- tonykaz

Placebophile Cat 8 Ethernet Cable
Dynaudio, I have heard of them but never worked with anything but their drivers. Besides, I haven't felt the need, the little Alum. Genelec stuff has worked well for me. Hell, Genelec probably has Dynaudio drivers for all I know or care. I'll be interested in Dyn's active...- tonykaz

Placebophile Cat 8 Ethernet Cable
"Goodness being Un-done", I wonder how much goodness is there to be undone. I don't have the hearing ability to differentiate between one of Bob Katz's Pro DACs and an MSB Analog DAC, much less a Schiit Yggy that Jude ( of this site ) owns and I heard at the Ann Arbor headphone...- tonykaz

Placebophile Cat 8 Ethernet Cable
DSP & Class D, This stuff seems to be "Standards" for the Recording Industry, with Mastering being the lone hold-out ( or semi-holdout ). All the Genelec stuff is Class D, isn't it? Anyway, B&O are about to release the Finest Loudspeaker ever made : BeoLab90 with 8,200 Class D Watts...- tonykaz

Placebophile Cat 8 Ethernet Cable
Dear Mr. Watchnerd, How do you avoid getting Banned? , you're such a wonderful Bubble-popper. I haven't looked at Head-Fi for a goodly while ( busyness with the Bernie Sanders project ). Schiit ( Stoddard & Baldr ) have banned me from their sites despite me loving a few of their...- tonykaz

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Mr. someguydude, I'll agree with you. Even further, I'll suggest that the entire range of HD580/600/650 have the same sonic abilities. I know that our Tyll feels the 600 is the best of the group but I have never been able to agree, they all are superb. I'll suggest that if a...- tonykaz

Etymotic ER-4XR Extended Response Earphone Review by mark2410
Hello Mr.Mark2410, You are quite right, I haven't noticed you previously. I did just have a look at your posted profile to learn a bit of your ownership experience and reviewing history going back to 2010 or thereabouts. I don't have a useful way of presenting you to "possible...- tonykaz

Etymotic ER-4XR Extended Response Earphone Review by mark2410
A very well thought out "Review", Geez, I've been reading Reviews and Reviewers for well-on to 6 Decades. This bit of work is amongst the finest descriptive prose I've come across. I'm putting this writer up with Tyll ( headphones ), Alex Dykes ( Auto ), Paul Sellers ( woodworking )...- tonykaz
