I had fun. Got to hear some Ultrasones and Denon cans finally. ;-)

Ditto- Leaving Asheville now!

Are we there yet?

I am ready! Got the gear packed!

What items are silent auction?

I have one of those!!

Remeber the first time you heard true head-fi and couldn't believe the sound? My LittleDot T_100 is in bypass mode with the LD II++ feeding it. WOW!! This is the new toy on the setup. Sumiko Audio : Sonus faber I can't believe the vocals and how even the sound is!! *BIG grin* Using the...

I turned my Little Dot II++ off to let it cool down so I could swap tubes. Ten minutes later I come back and it is still powered on, so I reach to the back and get shocked!! The power switch had melted and I reached inside it, grounding my hand to the top of the case... Felt nice- more the...

Every evening I have off work... the k701 and LD II++ are on! Still using the Chinese powers and Mullard drivers. I have not had any problems and many, many hours on them!

just got a Mio C520 GPS for geocaching!

Still waiting for my repaired MiniBox-D to come back... They have kept contact with me. I know I just need to wait.

I have a pair of Sennheiser HD600 that I listen to my music LOUD on. Bass is deep and does not distort. Is it normal to get an intermodulation sound on loud deep bass using the K701? Or will some of that go away after use and time? I had the K601 for a couple weeks and they bass was great...

OK... Gotta know- Who has already opened their new little toy and taken pictures?? I have seen some of the unfinished insides a while back... Would have been neat to have a clear side panel!

I have played medium to loud music through mine for about 100 hours now- A little better than they were, but male vocals are off in the distance. I also am waiting for the bass... stupid waiting game...

I had emailed David and he replied a couple days ago. Looks like there will be more amps coming soon. He also is not able to get to the little-tube site at the moment. Here is part of the email... "The new MK line will (tentatively) contain three amplifiers as well as a special edition of...

Very soon I will be getting one. I love the idea of a portable amp with a tube section like this one. Thanks for posting the pics mrarroyo!!!
