Ok i finally got it working!!! I love you guys. Using the schematic above, what you do is remove the solder linking 4 to 5. Then you desolder the wire at the 9pin and solder it to the 4th pin. I know its already mentioned how to perform this mod above, but i hope this helps those that are still...

Would you mind doing a picture guide? I have a soldering station and the basic soldering equipment. This sounds like an interesting task to take on.

Oh well if you finally get it, please comment here so i know if the problem lies in the adapter. Thank you. 

First off thank you for the very detailed reply! I've tried all of the methods you've stated above other than cleaning the connections, and the attempts to rectify the problem has been futile thus far. I'm still not sure what's causing the problem 

Hmm i've tried almost every single configuration and it still isn't helping :(

  It looks fine from my point, how would i go about testing whether one of the connectors are loose?

Well the thing is that i only have 2 7193 tubes, so i'm not sure if the tube is the one causing the problem. Also as for the adapter, you'll have to place it vertically instead of horizontally. 

Hi guys, i finally got to try the franken-ember setup everyone has been raving about. The thing is it is awfully quiet. I sourced the 7193 to 12ax7 converter from ebay and the 7193 tubes were graciously given to me by Demo3. I've set my computer sound to 100%, the project ember itself is also...

  On "the high side" means slightly more expensive than the norm. 

Does anyone know how much a semi-vintage Grado RS1 with buttons would cost? I've tried searching on the for sale forum and didn't find a price. 

What i don't get is that why dont people just buy this instead?  http://www.ebay.com/itm/191552830664 That way you get to only utilize 1 adapter for the franken ember setup, instead of 2. 

Would you like to sell me the extra 2 tubes 

Actually i was kinda interested with the shugang tube posted earlier, the cv 181-t. Do you think that can work effectively on my ember 1 with a 6SN7 adapter? Thank you for your help so far!

As quoted from the website "The Ember Supercharger module increases the tube heater current capacity from 500mA to well over 1A allowing many power hungry tubes to be used such as the 6n6p, 6n30p and more! Also tube warm up time is drastically decreased when using tubes requiring over 500mA!"...

Did anyone try out any tubes that actually needed the supercharger and got great results from it?

Yeah! That would be great. Try out the anaxilus mod.

So i have a version 1 ember right now. In order to use this tube, i will just have to get a ECC88 6922 6DJ8 TO 6SN7 6N8P CV181 TUBE CONVERTER ADAPTER right?

Have you considered the possibility that yours might be defective? Not trying to put you down, but if you have the chance, maybe demo someone else's HD 700. That way you can get a refund if the fault lies in your defective headphones. 

  Do you actually own the HD 700s? Cause from what i'm getting, you're just making baseless assumptions from reviews you've read. 

  Wow your tastes are pretty unique, i've heard of people turning down the 6kHz by 5 Db but you're actually turning it up?

  That doesn't exactly look portable. Unless i'm getting the definition of portable totally wrong. 

Personally I think your reply was kinda harsh. His statements might not be scientifically correct, but if he thinks it makes a discernible difference for the better and wanted to share his experience with everyone else, should we discourage such behavior?

Im pretty sure you can't. The reason why is because your Fiio E07K lacks a RCA output. Unless you have a 3.5mm to RCA cable, i don't think you can connect your Fiio E07K to the rca input of your Aune T1. Then again, I don't have the Fiio E07K so i'm not sure if there are any other methods of...

  Haha initially that was what i read. 

Anyone has any experience Eqing the HD 700? I seem to get pretty good results with -5 db at the 6kHz and 7kHz region.
