I've had my DV337 for almost a month and last night I experienced the same problem. I turned off the amp wanting to go to bed, but then decided to stay up a while longer so I turned it back on. The left channel made this awful crackling sound that made my heart stop for a few seconds. It crossed...

God, I could earn a PhD in clinical psych by using him as a case study.

I actually mix the red sauce with the dark one on a separate plate (usually the one that came with the sprouts and greens) and then dip the meat in it as I eat the soup. I really like the taste of the broth without any add-ons.

I don't see anything wrong with removing excess wax from the ear canal, but using alcohol can create potentially serious adverse effects. One of them would be bacterial resistance. You are killing all the weak bacteria and encouraging the selection of stronger strains that are immune to...

Thanks, Patrick. I still have to try out the red hots I got from you.

The internal amp of the Zero DAC.

HD 650 out of my newly arrived DV337. I feel like I just got a new pair of headphones!

Well, my DV 337 arrived today. When I got home from school there was a missed delivery card in my mail box. There was no way I was going to wait until 5pm to pick up the parcel from the post office, so I started driving around the neighborhood looking for the mail truck. I found it after about...

I ordered the Western Digital My Book Pro II Edition 1TB Triple Interface Hard Drive from J&R about three weeks ago. They had a sale and I got it for $199. I am using it as a backup drive for my Macbook Pro. So far I really like it. I backed up my internal hard drive through Time Machine without...

HFI-780. I needed some sound isolation this afternoon.

I also continue to like my sper.fi 5s. Their comfort is just leaps and bounds above the pros. I sat in the library all morning listening to the 5s and didn't experience one bit of discomfort. I still have a hard time parting with my super.fi 5 pros.

Thanks everyone for the sensible advice. I will look into some of the less expensive tubes, but I will definitely put the custom cable on hold. I have been using my HD650 right out of the Zero's apm section and I've been enjoying it a lot. I can only imagine how it will sound out of the DV337. I...

Thanks for the warm welcome. Now I am in anguish over tube replacements. I plagiarized the setup Skylab has in his profile, but I am having difficulty locating those tubes at a reasonable price. It seems that it would cost me well over $100 to purchase these tubes. Do you think that I will be...

Well, I just pulled the trigger on a DV337 from Audiophile China. I don't think I've ever been so nervous about a purchase. I hope it gets here in one piece. Now on to ordering some tubes!

I don't use my 2Move while walking or while taking public transportation, but I do take it with me to school and use it in the library. It is just too cumbersome to use it with my iphone while I'm on the move. When I plug in the amp to my laptop, it is totally worth it. Either way, I use my...

Thanks theitchybeard for your thorough response. I do have more than 200 hours on my 780, but I might wait to hear them with the Caliente I am planning to order before sending them for a recable. Thanks again for your response.

Earlier this year I was researching the 2Move and I came across some of the debates regarding the theft of Dr. Meier's design. I was really impressed with his way of handling things. From his posts he seemed like a fiercely ethical person. There was also something intangible in his responses...

HFI-780 today.

HD650 as well.

I'm also glad that you decided on the HD650s. I got mine from J&R as well, just over three weeks ago. For now I am running them through the Zero's internal amp (plan on getting a tube amp later) and I've been really enjoying them. Have fun with the burn-in and stuff.
