^^^^^This...this is ridiculously tempting....^^^^^^

@Jim Spec I do not believe the swapping of tubes while it is off, but not unplugged would be your downfall (considering that is the only way I swap tubes). Unfortunately the product is made in China and, well, yeah that's all that needs to be said. This reminds me of MY issue with the DV when...

  Thanks TWerk, EDM is one of my main genres, I'll read through that review. With the Atticus and Eikon on their way here, I need to be good and hold off on dropping anymore money on HPs, but they are definitely on my list of closed headphones.    At the moment I have the Fostex TH-X00 PHs...

  That is the same deal that I got. I didn't receive the amp at first, but a few emails later and it was shipped out next day. I use it every day at work with my IEMs, maybe just earbuds, I haven't gotten to deep into that game. $800 IEMs is a hard pill to swallow lol.   I agree with you on...

    It really is just an amazing pair of gear, I was lucky enough to snag the DT1990 for pretty much $400 brand new due to some crazy deal on Amazon. God I love Amazon lol. I never had the opportunity to try the Elear, I have Senns HD650s and Fostex TH-X00 Purplehearts and soon to get the...

I've been roaming this thread for awhile, actually ended up picking up the DT1990, which is a glorious headphone. After an entire day (and night) of swapping back and forth between the DT1990 and Senns HD650s, I put the Senns in their case and haven't touched them for a couple months, the DT1990...

  Damn man, sorry to hear this is a constant problem. My DV has been sitting quiet and cool lately, haven't had much time to sit and listen to music so my Jotenheim has been getting all the attention lately..   Unplug it, leave it sit for a couple minutes and crack her open to see if the...

  Interesting issue. Obviously just be careful with liquids and electricity 

  I never had much of an issue with that. I did have the left channel cut out on me, but it was due to my DAC being strange.   Keep us updated on that.

@DoctaCosmos where did you pick up the treasure tube? It looks glorious, would love to add it to my collection.

@DoctaCosmos I suggested the Sylvania 6080 lol. What pair of headphones were using? I would assume the Eikons?

  I know it sounds like a broken record, but I completely agree. Trying the Fostex TH-X00s at 32 ohms, nearly vomited from the lack of everything that is sound lol. 250 ohms and up, the DV comes out of its own. I'm running the Beyerdynamic 1990 and the bass is there comparing it to the Solid...

  @rudra what amp did you move too??

@DoctaCosmos Hello man, I'm still quite a noob when it comes to tube rolling, but I got stocked up pretty hard the second I got the DV. Respect to the man who can keep his wallet closed lol.  I feel an RCA combo may be what you are looking for. I found them to be the brightest tube selection. I...

  @ThermalAlchemy, well that was fantastic, thank you for taking the time and breaking out the big guns to answer the question with exactness.   You've got a difference of 26 degrees F (those readings are in F right? I cant imagine they would be in Celsius) of 6AS7G vs 6080 by TA's readings...

  Honestly, I have no clue. I can't imagine 50 ohms being that dramatic of a pitfall. The bass is good, the sound is fantastic, I just can't seem to hear much change when I swap tubes.    Just to clarify, I am not saying the DT 1990 sounds bad on the DV. No not at all, they sound incredibly...

  The DT 1990s are quite new, probably around 30 to 40 hours on them at this point. You are right, it may just require some burn in time. The DT 1990 is also a 250 ohm, the DV does not have any issue running them even though its getting near that lower impedance that the DV seems to not...

Here is a good question.    I just snagged the Beyerdynamic DT 1990s and I cannot really tell much difference using different tube combos compared to when I was running the HD650s. Does anyone else have this experience as well, particularly with the 1990s?   I may just need more time with...

@TYATYA, oh that Sylvania VT-231 is by far one of my favorite tubes. I don't know what it is exactly about the tube, but it just makes the music warm. The bass is sometimes over extended, but I find it so lush. The HD650s are phenomenal on the DV. It makes them "better" in my opinion. It tones...

Hello DV fam, hope all is going well.    After rolling with the KenRad VT-231 + Sylvania 7236, I felt it was a bit too cold almost. Too SS feeling somehow. So I reverted back to my warm Sylvania VT-231 + Sylvania 6080 combo. This seems to be my most favored tube combo. The music just feels...

Wow, @gvl2016, thats so gorgeous even if it is broken.  

Haha, oh yeah I totally understand that. Keep us updated if you happen to grab any tubes. Kenrad VT-231 is one of my favorite tubes at the moment. The reference thread said they had the best bass, I doubted them, I was wrong, poor me lol. 

Sigh, I've been eyeing up the Ori's ever since I accidentally found ZMF headphones couple months ago. After reading through the first 10 pages and finding out the Eikon and Atticus were 300 ohms a piece, I had no choice but to pull the trigger considering I'm absolutely obsessed with the...
