Isabellina HPA - Owner's Thread and Impressions
I sent the tube directly to Vinnie so he installed it during the build. So no, I did not listen w/ the stock tubes. He did send the JJs along, and I figured it is worth tube rolling only after the burn in. Maybe I'll test it out next weekend. In addition to the Dario Miniwatts recommendation...- rrrango

Isabellina HPA - Owner's Thread and Impressions
My RWA Audeze Edition DAC/Amp arrived today. It was a long wait until I got it unpacked this evening, after work, physical therapy and dinner w/ the family. Vinnie was gracious enough to suggest Miniwatt 7308s to replace the JJs. After going through the manual, I hooked it up to my Cambridge...- rrrango

Stupid question : Is it possible to use LCD-2 or HE-6 in bed ?
I use the LCD2s in bed w/ no problems. But maybe that means my head is way too big. In all seriousness, I do prop the pillows below the point that they would envelope the open vents for the 'phones.- rrrango

It took quite a while for me to get my xlr to rsa interconnect. It wasn't until I got his personal (Craig?) that I got a r esponse. And then it took another week after that.- rrrango

Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2
Just noticed this tweet from Headfonia: http://redwineaudio.com/components/audeze_edition I promptly called Vinnie and he went through a very lengthy explanation that this has been a thorough collaboration between him, Ken, and Alex to put together an optimum DAC/Amp combo for the...- rrrango

Emmeline SR71-B vs iBasso PB2
I Recommend that you include a dac in your audio chain. Without going through either my Cambridge 840c or the algorhythm solo, the sound quality improvement may be limited.- rrrango

REVIEW: Monster Turbine Pro Gold (w/ New Car Smell and Doughnuts!)
I completely agree that the supertips are worthless. I tend to use 3rd party tips w/ these IEMs. For me the Sennheiser double flanges or comfy tips work best.- rrrango

At what point are headphones no longer worth their price tag?
I have the HD 650s and the LCD2s, both bought new. The sound quality for the LCD2s may not be double (as the price clearly is) that of the HD 650s, but I still think that they were worth spending the money. I think it all is a matter of what kind of expectation and how much your budget would...- rrrango

The best portable amp
I use the LCD2s w/ the ALO audio cable, balanced to the SR-71Bs and then balanced again to a Cambridge 840c. There is a significant difference in soundstaging and clarity compared to running the entire signal chain in single-ended mode.- rrrango

LCD-2, LCD-3, Owners and the Music They Love...
I listen mostly to Dave Matthews band as well. In addition to Crash, Big Whiskey and the Groogrux King is an excellent studio album. As for the live performances, Live Trax 7, from Hampton Coliseum is the best in terms of set list and sound quality. -
LCD-2 and LCD-3 Owners - which aftermarket cable do you use?
I have both the new ALO Audio and Silver Dragon cables for the LCD2. The silver dragon cable is markedly brighter and more airy on the treble end of the spectrum. But I significantly prefer the ALO Audio cable for most of the music I listen to-- Dave Matthews Band, Phish, House/Electronica music.- rrrango

Monster Turbine Challenge - A Pro Gold Review (Yes, another one...)
They do come with supertips. There are two different sizes included. I'm not a big fan as the smaller ones fall out easily due to the weight and the bigger ones are not much better. I prefer using Sennheiser double flanges or comfy tips.- rrrango
