    Schiit Audio Bifrost 2

    I just installed the Bifrost 2/64 Analog Card upgrade and have a quick question. I recall my BF2 OG Card taking hours to settle in and sound its best, so I'm a believer in component burn-in. Can I burn-in this new BF2 2/64 Card by just feeding the DAC music continually but not turning on my...

    The Woo Audio 2

    Hi guys! Thanks for the advice. @jonathan c . I saw your picture of the Raytheon 6080WC on this thread... and found some for sale on ebay... and they all look identical to my Sylvania labeled 6080... so I think my 6080's are actually re-labeled Raytheon's... none of the Sylvania's I've seen...

    The Woo Audio 2

    As mentioned above, I'm very happy with the sound of the WA2 with my stock tubes at this point. That said, tube amps are meant to be rolled :smile:... so I definitely need to roll something! :L3000: I'm interested in high quality tubes, not quantity, but don't want to break the bank :bank...

    Woo WA2 Tube Rolling Recommendations

    So, I just purchased this great amp a week ago and posted an intro on the main WA2 thread of my experience so far... which has been great! https://www.head-fi.org/threads/the-woo-audio-2.402215/page-112#post-17387174 I'd expected to immediately need to upgrade the tubes to even enjoy the amp...

    The Woo Audio 2

    Yes, the Bifrost 2 multibit DAC was a nice upgrade to my system when I got it a couple years ago. Now that I'm pairing it with the WA2, I've surprisingly discovered that I prefer running it in NOS Mode (Non-Oversampled), because I find that the instruments are more well defined and the...

    Thanks for the warm welcome to the thread :relaxed:! Realized I forgot to include a couple pictures of my WA2 :) And now with my LTD Bubinga Atrium

    The Woo Audio 2

    Hi everyone! I joined the WA2 club just last week and I've been blown away with the sound quality coming out of this amp... even with the stock tubes it came with. I'd been thinking about trying an OTL amp for some time... since I have 2 ZMF headphones and lots of people rave about OTL's with...

    ZMF Verite Open

    I'm in the same boat. I've been happily using the Aeolus for the last year... but have been having Verite Open longings!:) Almost jumped in during ZMF November... but couldn't quite click buy.. I'm now watching to see what the new VO wood will be since I already have a Sapele Aeolus (which is...

    ZMF Verite Open

    Oh man! I thought the sale was going live at @11 CST, not 10 CST. Was thinking, hey I really like my Aeolus... but a Verite Open/Closed would be awesome! :) They're all gone already! :triportsad: Oh well! Guess my wallet will thank me! 💸

    ZMF Aeolus Impressions thread

    Wow, I love the look of your cans @Renexx! Awesome! The contrast between the darker wood and steel is beautiful! I'm looking to order an Aelous soon (to get my 1st zmf), but want a LTD so I can customize the grill and rod colors. Looks like the LTD Aeolus Stabilized is sold out. @zach915m When...

    Schiit Lyr 3 Tube rolling thread.....

    I find myself using the HD6XX on high gain for most of the music I listen to (singer songwriters, jazz, pop, alternative, country). I find high gain gives a bit more energy to the sound. But when I'm listening to soundtracks, live recordings, or classical (i.e. recordings with greater dynamic...

    Schiit Lyr 3 Tube rolling thread.....

    Hi @tafens! Yes, we do have the same setup when I'm using the HD6XX! I saw some of your posts regarding dac's along the journey to my current setup... and they were helpful while I was deciding to upgrade to a Bifrost 2, which proved to be a great choice. Thanks! Honestly I don't think there's...
