Here are some albums I tend to listen to help with sleeping:   Fennesz + Sakamoto - Cendre Helios - Eingya Bioshpere - Substrata Tycho - Dive Willits + Sakamoto - Ancient Future

Vali/Modi is a kind of good match for the HD700's in my opinion. Overall it sounds good, but be wary of the noise floor (of Vali) which is very audible with the 700's.

I've been using the Modi/Vali combo for last week or so and I like how my HD700 sounds with the Vali. Although I have one problem with it, the noise floor seem to be bit too high for them. Hissing is suprisingly loud, it blends into the music when I'm listening to noisier songs (rock...

Yes! Quaristice and also Exai sounds really good on headphones. Other artists/albums I'd recommend, in the similarish style, which has great sound design: Amon Tobin - ISAM / The Foley Room, Alva Noto - Univrs and Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto - Summvs.    

David Byrne & St. Vincent - Love This Giant   I've been listening to this record since last week and it just keeps getting better and better. Though when the album was released I wasn't really a huge fan of it but since then it has grown and I'd highly recommend this album.

Thanks for the recommendation! I will check that out.

Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense. Great live album and it sounds good as well.

I ordered couple days ago HD 700's and did a bit of research what amps/dacs would be good for HD700. Unfortunately I didn't really come to a conclusion what would be the best thing to buy, so I thought to ask you for recommendations. I already own Valhalla, but because my macbook pro broke I...

Here's some of my favorite soundtracks:   AIR - The Virgin Suicides Ryuichi Sakamoto - Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence Ryuichi Sakamoto - Shining Boy & Little Randy Clint Mansell - The Fountain Clint Mansell - Moon Fennesz - AUN Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - The Social Network...

Thank you for the tips, I'll try those. I just received message from schiit and they are sending me new pair of tubes. I have to say, that they have really great customer service.

Quote: I tried those cheater plugs and it didn't do anything. I also tried the amp in different rooms without any source and still the amp had the hum. I don't really know if I can get any spare tubes in here where I live (well, I could order from schiit, but if those doesn't work...

So many great songs, but I think these stood up the most at this moment.   Nine Inch Nails - The Day The World Went Away Ryuichi Sakamoto - Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence Ryuichi Sakamoto - Seven Samurai (Ending Theme) Fennesz - Glide Einstürzende Neubauten - Youme & Meyou Skinny...

I sent message to the Schiit support and they said that it's probably a normal tube hum and to run the amp very low level for 8 hours. I did that and the hum is still there. Does the normal tube hum really sound like 60hz hum with little distortion/buzz in it, even if I turn the volume knob the...

Thanks for the info! I got my amp on wednesday and I've listened approximately 15h to it already. Let's hope the hum goes away soon.

I got my valhalla earlier this week and I can hear a hum through the headphones. I tried to lift the ground loop, but it didn't help at all to getting rid of the hum, also I noticed when I turn on the amp the amp is silent, but when the tubes kick in the hum starts. I wouldn't mind the hum if I...
