Little Dot I+ Tube Rolling
I was wondering if there was a frequency I could cut in foobar to take away the hard highs. I don't use the eq but was wondering if this would help before I get some new tube?- Rossy007

Little Dot I+ Tube Rolling
They are Tung-sol 6AH6, Its been a constant problem for me, I seem to have a sensitivity to harsh top ends. One thing I have noticed since I put the muse02 in is every now and then, I hear a click/pop, not overly loud and not all the time...strange. I may give your tubes a try, i'll look on ebay...- Rossy007

Little Dot I+ Tube Rolling
Just popped in a muse02 and was quite surprised at the difference. Vocals are a bit hard but I am hoping that will change (don't know if op-amps need burning in). definitely more detail and the bass is superb, makes my Q701's sound warm and deep. I feel like the soundstage has narrowed a bit but...- Rossy007

Little Dot I+ Tube Rolling
I have just ordered a Muses02 to see if I can squeeze just a little more bass out of my little dot & Q701. I was wondering if anybody would like to share their top 5 albums that they use as a reference to test any tube rolling or op amp rolling. I have 5 that are my go to cd's that tell me if...- Rossy007

Do I have to change my amp?
Thanks, I'm currently taking a look at the Phillips and they look promising. I am also looking at the MUSES02 op amp that may help. I'm not a big fan of "rolling", just not my thing but I may give the op amp a try and if that doesn't work, i may order the phillips. Thanks again- Rossy007

Thanks, I did look into that. I was wondering if I can pick up any cheap CD player as long as its got a digital output to feed whatever DAC I choose to buy. How important is the CD player if I am only using the transport side of it?- Rossy007
