    Gustard X20 DAC

    My X20U which has approx. 75% of the Ric Schultz initial mods sounds great w/ HQPlayer playing DSD256. But when Quadman brought his custom PC w/ Ryzen chip & modded Singerx SU-1 & connected to my X20U, I was able to experience DSD512. Other than the initial white noise, it was a marked...

    Does anyone have a copy of the DIYinhk USB audio driver v3.34 that you could be so kind to send my way? (DIYinhk now only offers a v3.38 version that is only good for their XMOS PCB: http://www.diyinhk.com/shop/driverdatasheetmanual/109-diyinhk-usb-audio-driver-full-version-and-signed-.html )...

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    Latex rubber gloves are a handy way to grip tubes firmly & work loose (don't even have to put them on if you don't want to, just use couple finger sections to get a firm grip).  Works like a charm.

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    The Cadillac commercial with Wozniak showed a VPI Classic 4 turntable supposedly supplied by these guys out of Monrovia, CA:   http://brooksberdanltd.com/brooks-berdan-turntable-in-a-cadillac-commercial   Amp-wise they sell McIntosh & Chord Electronics, so possibly/ maybe a Hugo was driving...

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    astark, welcome.   You need to provide more info re: what type of sound you prefer (neutral, warm, etc.) & where your primary listening preferences tend to lean (rock/ classical/ jazz/ electronic, etc.). Do you like prominent bass, a trebly sound. etc.?  Different tubes emphasize different...

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    Haven't tried in the Lyr, but for a Grant Fidelity TubeDac-11 preamp/Dac, I & many others definitely prefer the Amperex 6922 PQ US version over the Holland version. YMMV. Can't recall if this has been posted recently, but here is a good review source for 6DJ8, 6922 tubes...

    +1. The matte black looked flat and rather dull IMO. The gloss black has a more distinctive character, less incognito. To each their own though, my deep burgundy Alpha's are da' bomb. :cool:

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    +3 on the Teles. I have 50 hrs. run time on a pair, & the bass is incredible (great dynamics, but finely detailed & nuanced), best on low frequencies so far in my set-up. Leans warmer/ darker overall, and not as open/ airy as the Siemens or Amperex Orange Globes. But what it does right is so...

    Alpha Dog/Schiit Lyr love

    I too have Alpha Dog/ Schiit Lyr love... a fabulous synergy ! I have been tube rolling a lot lately (currently have some CBS Siemens ECC88's installed). Regardless of tube pairs chosen, the inner detail is incredible. I am always hearing new things in familiar recordings with this powerful...

    MrSpeakers Alpha Dog Revealed! - The World's First Production 3D-Printed Headphones

    Excellent video. It's crystal clear. :cool: Did I understand correctly that all new Alpha Dogs are now coming with 1-2 dots per side based on testing to tame the 2 treble peaks? I have a Schiit Lyr tube head amp, so I assume that probably 1 dot per side will be all that is needed to make the...

    MrSpeakers Alpha Dog Revealed! - The World's First Production 3D-Printed Headphones

    Nice review by Steven Stone whom I highly respect. He also writes for The Absolute Sound & Stereophile, & does a good job covering RMAF. This quote is of particularly high praise: "I have yet to hear another closed-ear earphone at even double the price that achieves the same level of sonic...

    MrSpeakers Alpha Dog Revealed! - The World's First Production 3D-Printed Headphones

    Mr. Speakers tunes the Alpha Dogs to achieve a more flat frequency response resulting in a neutral sound. There are a couple of frequency peaks that are tougher to tame. Stock Fostex driver materials tolerances magnify these problems. Mr. Speakers is employing just enough parts of the obedience...

    MrSpeakers Alpha Dog Revealed! - The World's First Production 3D-Printed Headphones

    My workplace requires hearing protection if noise levels meet or exceed 85 dB. I used this as a maximum listening level maybe 15 yrs. ago. I also use ear plugs when mowing, leaf blowing, around loud machinery, etc.. I wish that I had been more proactive in protecting my ears prior to this, but...

    Per OSHA, maximum permissible exposure limit for 2 hrs. is 100 dBA : https://www.osha.gov/dts/osta/otm/noise/standards_more.html I use SPL meters (Rat Shack for loudspeakers & iPad app for headphones) to set volume listening range around 80- 85 dB max peaks.
