Thank you for your reply! I prefer a snug fit inside my ear (snugged up against the opening) and it sounds like the tips my pushes the Trio’s out a little bit further…. Thank you confirming and saving me some time and money!- lil BANE

Do the Trio’s sit further outside your ears with the Coreir tips? They look pretty long.- lil BANE

Grado Fan Club!
I just “bought” my wife a pair of golden Grado’s. I’m so excited for her! Thank you for tip Plakat! In reality I hope she likes them…I fell in love with her because she liked to watch American football. It’s great when your partner gets involved in you passions.- lil BANE

Precog's IEM Reviews & Impressions
There is definitely a premium placed on some IEM’s - I agree with you there. But it doesn’t take anywhere near the same amount of time (and time is money) to reverse engineer someone else’s work and then sell it at a discount.- lil BANE

Grado Fan Club!
Thank you for sharing your recommendation - I had a bad feeling the WA8 and the tubes might have right synergy with PS series! It’s just that the WA8 is just out of reach at retail prices…and the WA11 was within. Guess it time to work on those patience! Does anyone in the Bay Area (CA) have...- lil BANE

Grado Fan Club!
I recently added a Grado PS1000e to my stable! I'm looking for a portable amp and have read favorable reviews of the Woo Audio WA11 - has anyone used this amp? Or maybe the Woo Audio WA8?- lil BANE

Monoprice Monolith Liquid Platinum - By Alex Cavalli
They are the 2021 version. What is the difference with the headband? Tried looking it up; do the earlier versions come with a cushion? And the later a suspension strap? In your last pic that your volume was @ 1:00 - do the RFT ECC82 tubes tame the power some?- lil BANE

Monoprice Monolith Liquid Platinum - By Alex Cavalli
I’m still learning about tubes, but from what I was able to pick up, the 6922 works with a filament voltage of 6.3V, and the 12AU7 run at 12.6V. I wonder if theres a compatibility issues at play here?- lil BANE

Liquid Platinum Tube Rollers.
So after spending more then a couple of days reading about passive volume control, I ended up grabbing the Nobsound passive preamp based on the positive reviews. Is it perfect? (Shrug) I’m not positive, but for $60 my setup sounds much better, and more importantly it will allow me more time to...- lil BANE

NEW - Campfire Comet and Atlas
I actually wrap my cable around my ears - eliminates the issue with the weight. It also helps with bass by maintaining the seal better! I did what you recommended BTW and removed the wire from my cable (It made it easier to wrap the cable around my ear!).- lil BANE

Liquid Platinum Tube Rollers.
Thank you for taking the time to point me in the right direction! Interesting suggestion about a passive volume control…I really didn’t consider this. I’ve been looking at passive preamps from Khozmo, Luminous, and Goldpoint - the Luminous Axiom looks decently priced. Looks like I’ve got a...- lil BANE

Liquid Platinum Tube Rollers.
Thank you for your reply! I googled “12au7 converter to 6922” and found a few options - one that caught my eye was this one on Amazon. Am I heading in the right direction? I couldn’t find anything in the description about wired in parallel for 6 volt operations, but am I’m correct in assuming...- lil BANE

I’m very interested to know why the gain is reduced when using 12AU7 / ECC82 / ECC802 tubes? Could these tubes harm my LP? I need some gain reduction when using my LCD-X headphones.- lil BANE

Astell&Kern AK380
Anyone know if the battery in the AK380 amp is the same battery that is in the AK380 DAP itself? Can’t seem to kick this thing to the curb…it’s a great backup system, but need it to last more than 5 hours! Both batteries need a refresh.- lil BANE

Cayin RU6: R-2R USB Dongle DAC with Head-Amp
It’s actually Tidal itself. The Ru6 sounds great with Qobuz - this is one of many reasons I quit Tidal. Sure there is more data download involved, but there is nothing to unpack. I stream Qobuz in the office/home and buy my albums for offline use (at a discount btw) - ymmv and all that.- lil BANE
