    DC Area Head-Fi Meet - Sunday, October 16, 2016

    Cavalli liquid crimson owner, I can confirm that tube rolling does very little for the amp. Also, I won't be there, I'm going to be crazy busy with the election.

    I'll check when I get home, and get back to you around 5 pm. My PS Audio power strip/filter/whatever can tell me power draw.

    I can only bring a fraction of the stuff I own, the things I have lined up already account for over 150 lbs.   She has learned the first lesson of getting a job (getting your foot in the door is important, but has failed the second lesson (never do anything for free). Luckily she still has...

    DC-Area Head-Fi Meet - Saturday, February 27, 2016 -- Impressions Thread

    got confirmation that I'm one of the first 10 for the Eddie Current Black Widow mk2, so I should be getting that in the next few weeks. I really need to make sure to go to the next meet, the list of gear I want to demo to everyone is getting a bit long.

    DNA Stratus 2A3 amplifier - first impressions

    I get to 1.75 with my HE-6, but a lot of cans are under 1 on the volume dial. It's not even that my DAC is super hot, the SE outs are only 2V max. Anyway, I definitely feel the effects of the loudness war with more modern recordings, but it's not a huge issue because I tend to pair the stratus...

    DNA Stratus 2A3 amplifier - first impressions

    For all intents and purposes, dual 3-pin vs 4-pin outputs are identical. In theory the 3rd pin on the 3-pins is for ground, but that's not used with headphones. Any shielding on the cable should be terminated to the ground lug, which grounds through the body of the connector.

    I'm planning on using it to convert to AES, which is apparently superior to USB through a Yggy.

    DC-Area Head-Fi Meet - Saturday, February 27, 2016 -- Impressions Thread

    IT's been treating me very well, though I'm on a hard rock kick right now, so it and the 007As are not synergizing well with my music selections. The Stratus is getting a lot more playtime, along with the LCD-2r2s. I've been thinking about trying to demo the L700s, since I've heard a number of...

    DC-Area Head-Fi Meet - Saturday, February 27, 2016 -- Impressions Thread

    For one, I got my surface pro fixed, and it should be working this time, I swear. Still now Black Widow, but there are some cool things from the digital side of things that are trickling in, thought the most important piece of gear has been delayed due to the guy I'm purchasing it from modding...

    DC-Area Head-Fi Meet - Saturday, February 27, 2016 -- Impressions Thread

    Not really, the only Cavalli I have heard is the Crimson, no EC amps (a Black Widow is on order), etc. I have a Decware Taboo Mk. 3, but that is not a good amp to use with anything other than the LCDs and the HE-6.
