Most of mine are old Americans which are usually noisy but awesome staging then Heerlen and brimar. I'll have to dig em up. Pandemic forced me out of new Orleans. I bought a house in SC years ago so I'm there now. Retired and broke. So not many purchases going on. Glad to see y'all are still...

When the **** did that happen? Hi Sam. I got a few 12au7 for my rogue. The lyr hasn't been set up for years cuz of the cayin i ha6. Glad to see the old guard still Rollin. Billerb TK,

Elegia changes the most with amps compared to my other phones. It loves power to me. Cayin ha-6 makes me very happy with it.original LC is pretty good with it too. LH products stink with it. Too tizzy and thin. Elegia is a great compliment to my zmf ori and hifiman he 560. All are so...

Im only 80 hours in but enjoying elegias very much. Its what i was looking for to compliment mu zmf ori and he 560 v1. Great detail and imaging, good soundstage and satisfying range. Balanced pulls the mids back a bit and fleshes out the bass a bit. Over time the body of the sound gains...

Yeah, got single., built a 2 channel set up. Started back on hps a bit now. Glad to see ur still at it. No more tubes for me. Cayin i-ha6 and tons of tubes for my dac. Still 2c51s.

Mine too Sam. ( s'up?)Still like that magnepan delivery. So easy to listen to when properly amped.

Thank you both. Having fixed my favorite dac (nm24) the edge is off the top of my favorite amp ( iha-6) The ori sounds amazing and coupled w the he560 im gonna enjoy them until a good deal comes up on a focal. If i decide a mobile player is a necessary supplement. The ori is u underpowered by...

The ori is my go to . thats why i asked here. The 2 i principally use are the ori and he560. Thanks for response. I miss those bombastic dynamics of my only focal , the classic. Different tier but.....damn that was cool

Ive had an loved the ori since 2015. Focused on home stereo system until recently. Now what hps do you guys use to supplement the ori? I have he560 as well for an open planar and ye old q701 with its funky stage . Those Focals keep yellin at me. Damn they has the dynamics. Id love to try one of...

Its a beast. I bought a used unit in 2017 for $475. I still love it and its the only componet that i dont consider upgrading.

6 years of waiting. Swindlers. Disgusted with LH.

Just turn on the gas and walk away. I usually play music through them about half the time while I’m in another room.

Wow, just missed tks post. Dang

I’ve been in shock since the miracle in Minnesota . Sammy where y’at! Just nothing new to add. The dac integrated in to my home system has come insanely close to my turntable sound. Thanks to the ts 2c51s. I haven’t even bothered to roll in the other 5670s. The dac tube implementation is...

I really like the ge 5670. They seem much like the reflektors should sound. The old 6n23ps I mean. Great soundstage and big bass. More neutral than the other 5670 variants. I use the tung sols more though. For its unique presentation and pretty mids. The dgetter rca are also very nice and...

It’s about 60 in the big easy as well. But it’s been below freezing for a few days. I have some sylvania dgetters in my rogue (5814a) nice tone and good air. The hp chain has been integrated to my speaker system. The ts 2c51s are so good with the ascend sierras and oppo I haven’t moved anything...

I moved the monarch nm24 into my speaker system. Now the digital end is fantastic as well. The TS in the dac and ecc82 heerlens in the amp. I prefer the d getter ge 5814a but every pair goes noisy after warm up. Rotten luck with those.

My time with the focal classic made me curious about the elear as well. Focal has serious dynamics and beatiful tone. Nice looking too. The Omni looks ridiculous on my head but I ain’t going out with it. Auteur looks like a steampunk museum piece but damn the price. I wish I could stomach...

Auteur is out of range as well . Ive never had a problem with my 560. Mechanically that is. Other than those crummy smc connectors coming undone. It was the over softness if the sound that was its undoing to me. I prefer a more intense attack. It was my #1 for about 6 months. Then I got the Omni...

I never listen to the he560. Hope you aren’t paying too much. They should go for $350 plus any cable extras. Mine are kind of a pain due to the smc connection and I just prefer the zmf hps I have. You have tubes that will make the match up nice. A lot just sound too flat and warm with it. All to...

A used pair of focals might foot the bill for phone users. The classic had a similar signature to the vibro. It was great from a phone.

I enjoyed the voskhods for the weight in the bass . Imaging... not so much. If you’re determined to stay with 6922 variants the 74 reflektors walk all over the rockets when it comes to imaging and instrument separation . Though there is virtually no warmth to the sound when compared to the...

My name is a killing word. As demonstrated by the Leubners and George Carlin . Happy switching between the Rca and Tung Sols in the dac and the chrome domes and frankentubes in the lyr. So nothing new to add. Except I splurged on a soundsmith cartridge rendering my headphones to the back...

The prophet spoke about the Raytheon’s a while back.

Those 6c8gs do seem to love the he560 or vv. Not quite like 6sn7s live the vibro but mos def the same game. Adds a little wetness to the sound. A very welcome attribute to my ears. Prophet is right, 6c8 g work in the 2nd series of schiit. I’ve used them in my dac as well. But put the ts magic...
