WOO-HOOOO... WA7 "fireflies"!!!
I had been using my LCD 2.2 phones with my WA7 / tp combo and had been quite happy. When I acquired my Burson V2+, however, it became appparent that the Audezes were more capable than the Woo was able to demonstrate. There was ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with the Woo / Audeze combo, but if you are...- Beammeup

MICROZOTL2 Tube Headphone Amp and preamp: a breakthrough device
Schiit Bifrost was impressive at its price point. The Sabre DAC in my Burson V2+, however, provided a noticible improvement in resolution, instrument separation and transient attack. The clear winner, in my opinion, is the Gungnir Multi-Bit I recently acquired from a fellow member. The Gumby /...- Beammeup

MICROZOTL2 Tube Headphone Amp and preamp: a breakthrough device
I have been running the MicroZOTL 2.0 into a relatively inefficient (85 db/watt) pair of 8 ohm, Linn Katan speakers in a desktop setup. I have been driving this combo with the DAC out setting of my Burson V2+. As long as I keep the volume level up around 80 on the Burson -REMOVE HEADPHONES...- Beammeup

Show us your Head-Fi station at it's current state. No old pictures please...
The Head Box started it all! The NAD 7020 was my first "quality" purchase many years ago. There is a lot of sentimental value there!- Beammeup

New Burson Conductor - V2 and V2+
Fezz, I have not listened to the KEF but will try to arrange that. I have a pair of Linn Katan serving desktop duty at present - any additional upgrades beyond the V2+ will have to wait for the toy budget to recover! We are in the process of retiring and relocating. Depending on what...- Beammeup

New Burson Conductor - V2 and V2+
Thanks for the review, Fezz, it has made me even more anxious to receive my V2+. In order to have an alternative to my LCDs, I am planning to run a pair of bookshelf speakers via a yet-to-be determined power amp. My questions to you are: When you plug in your headphones, does the V2+...- Beammeup

New Burson Conductor - V2 and V2+
I just pulled the trigger on IDGG. It is going to be interesting comparing the V2+ with my WA7tp using my LCD2 non Fazor phones! I love the tube sound of the Fireflies, but there seems to be an almost universal respect for the synergy of the Audeze/Burson combination. Anxiously waiting....- Beammeup

Minneapolis Meet @ The Needle Doctor Saturday June 7th
Sorry, gang, I had to attend to a family matter in Duluth. All is getting squared away, but I will not be back in time for the meet. I even got over 250GB of ALAC files moved over to my macbook and everything. :mad: Looking forward to the next one I hope you all have a great day.- Beammeup

Minneapolis Meet @ The Needle Doctor Saturday June 7th
My source is my Mac. I have a lot of greater than Redbook quality ALAC files on it. I have no portable device capable of feeding the Woo DAC. Best I could do is my iPod classic (ALAC files) via RCA into the Woo, bypassing the Woo DAC. I will bring this iPod and cables. Feel kind of funny not...- Beammeup

Minneapolis Meet @ The Needle Doctor Saturday June 7th
OK, I am a definite. They can't call me for overtime, because I am out of service due to a foot injury. I have my LCD 2.2s and a WA7 with both the solid state and tube power supplies and a small selection of tubes I do NOT, however, have a source I could easily transport. Should I bring the...- Beammeup

Intro and questions
Thanks for the replies. I don't need the isolation; in fact, with grandkids running around, it's good to be able to hear what is happening! The 800's are definitely on my short list. I do wear glasses, so an around the ear seems to be a better plan than an on the ear. From what I have read...- Beammeup
