Its stock. Pretty new. Liking it though. Just figured maybe there was a basic tube upgrade. I could spend more if needed. What tube sizes should I be looking at?- TeknicalXtacy

Darkvoice 336i & 336SE Tuberolling PartII
What's a good very available set of tubes for my DarkVoice. Have HD800S that I use with the amp. So I guess good bass character would be the focus. But I am not looking for an in depth search, just an off the shelf improvement - if possible.- TeknicalXtacy

Headphone Choice
Wondering which headphone people would buy that has a little thump but retains audio quality in the $3-4 ,000 range. Should be a good all-a-rounder. Right now I am thinking Meze Empyrean or LCD-4z. Any assistance and experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, john- TeknicalXtacy

Sony EX1000 Review and Impressions Thread (with comparisons to FX700, GR10 and e-Q5)
Its 4.4 mm, I need 2.5mm. Coud get an adapter, seems like a inelegant solution.- TeknicalXtacy

Thank you for the info. What tips are you using for a good seal? I have had my EX1000 for a long time and am revisiting to "refreshen" for lack of a better term. As with most earbuds, seal is important and I have several generic tips I have been messing with, wresting really. Don't want...- TeknicalXtacy

Topping A90
That's your singular opinion. And one incident does not support your conclusion. It may for you, but that is just not how the world works. It exaggerates the severity of the incident. It would be just like me saying my unit works, therefore all units will work. It's all about probability...- TeknicalXtacy

That is unfortunate, and I feel for you. But it does not condemn the entire line. Nor does it provide anything regarding future performance, and it can not. It is anecdotal, period.- TeknicalXtacy

Topping A90
I fundamentally disagree with everything you said, not least of which because you are just talking and have absolutely no hard data of any kind. You are guaranteeing breakage - LMAO. The product just came out, so unless you can tell the future, once gain, you are just flapping your jaws...- TeknicalXtacy

Topping A90
Having listened to a decent cross section of gear I have to say that there are too often times where hyperbole is the order of the day.

Topping A90
I would say they compare very well. The CHord has a bigger sound stage and greater clarity. It also has the ability to adjust via its crossfeed function, but prefer it straight up. Also, the Chord has greater texture to the sound. But when you consider the difference in price, you realize...- TeknicalXtacy

Topping A90
I concur. I have Topping D90/A90 stackand I own a CHord Hugo TT2. The Topping equipment is superb. I am assuming they have a warrany of some kind. But mine sound incredibly good. When you factor in cost, it is reallly amazing what they can do. No problems with them at all. Great time to...- TeknicalXtacy

Best Amp + Dac for HD800 S
Well, now I am running the Chord TT2 and love it. Definite difference from the Topping and the HDV820. This is what I was looking for; very impressed with the TT2. I feel it is an excellent match for the HD800s. Of course I have other headphones as well.- TeknicalXtacy

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
Thanks for the reply. I have been experimenting with both, exclusive and otherwise. Appears, for me anyway, Qobuz appears a little louder and cleaner. Tidal is a bit darker/smoother. Harder to compare when in exclusive mode because have to turn one off before turing the other on. But it...- TeknicalXtacy
