DNA Stratus 2A3 amplifier - first impressions
Thank you Bigsecret and x17xr2b for your help. I see the Sophia power tubes get positive reviews. What are the differences in the line up of 2.5V 300B or 2A3 tubes (Carbon Princess 300B, S.E.T. Princess 300B, Princess 2A3 mesh plate, 2A3 mesh plate)?- ymc226

DNA Stratus 2A3 amplifier - first impressions
Asking for some tube upgrade advice for the Stratus. I placed my order with Donald April 2016 and just heard from him that my Stratus should be delivered mid to late September. I stopped reading this thread about the time I placed my order so ask for the most recommended tube upgrades...- ymc226

Thanks a lot Badas. I predict there will be a run on the WU4GBs in the near future. My order is already shipped as your experience significantly peaked my interest.- ymc226

Badas, I'm planning on getting the WU4GB for my WA5-LE as well. When you refer to the amp running hot, what part of the amp are you referring to and how are you measuring it? I know there are infra red thermometers used to read the water when fly fishing. I would want to use my EML...- ymc226

Question on the headphone settings on the WA5-LE. Using my usual headphones (HE1000, 800S and Beyer T5Ps) which I know the settings but just got IEMs (Shure SE846). I want to try it with the adapter. I am guessing the power is LOW, impedence is LOW as well. Is the level LOW or HIGH?- ymc226

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Thanks rwelles, I've had my Lavricable several months as well. Initially it worked a few times then had intermittent connection issues which were resolved with unplugging and plugging in/turning the Mojo on/off a few times. This latest occurrence is the most resistant to a resolution. ...- ymc226

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Lavricable issues: was previously working with my iPhone 6 but now stopped working. I remember reading in this thread that a user did something simple to get it to work again but I can't find it as there are so many pages. Does anyone know what to do to get the cable to work with the Mojo again?- ymc226

Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread
Thanks. I just plugged it into my system, unplugged the Woo DAC and will just enjoy the Yggy. Still waiting on DNA stratus which is due in a year. No hurry as the WA 5 LE is awesome.- ymc226

Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread
Finally got my Yggy. I know it has to be powered on for a while (weeks and more) prior to optimal performance. I'll use my current Woo Audio DAC until then but do I have to have music/data signal actively input into the Yggy in addition to having it just powered on for it to "burn" in? If...- ymc226

IMac vs Macbook(air/pro) for source
Thinking about getting a dedicated computer to hook up to my Yggy/Woo Audio WA 5 LE and eventual Stratus. Using iTunes/audirvana with USB with Wyrd and Regen as well as a thunderbolt external drive to house the music. Any difference using either an iMac vs an Apple laptop as a source?- ymc226
