I prefer the JAN 5654  seems overall to have more sonic synergy & balance to the entire frequency range to my ears. They both sound good though. Mine is paired with the V5i too.

Does anyone know if the jumpers for J1/J1' are placed to enable the EF92 family will the default tubes 6J1/5654 family still drop back in. Or will those have to be removed again to default back ?

So i got the dt990s couldn't resist at that price. Initially I didn't really like them much. But when paired with my warm sounding Bravo Amp or perhaps a bit more break in they settled down & became much funner to listen to. Initially it just sounded like something was missing and there wasn't...

Powersupply: MEAN WELL GS60A24-P1J 60W 3-Wire AC Input Regulated AC-to-DC Switching Table-Top Power Supply 24V 2.5 Amp   I have the V1 version of the Bravo with the 6922 & haven't been able to use it for years because the power supply died. Well I was searching for a replacement & eventually...

curious if anyone else os running an upgraded power supply on their bravo amp?

I have not tried the 990s but I was really intrigued by what I'm hearing about DT1990 and seeing the OP end up there. Wondering if I should even bother with the X2,K712 and just go straight to the DT1990 now. I'm curious if he even bothers pulling out the X2 after the dt1990s. Id hate to go down...

I'm really enjoying the way this thread is progressing as well. I've had my setup for some years now & I love my dt880s as well & feeling a similar itch for something just as analytical that doesn't give up anything to the 880s. But looking for a bit funner sounding(engadging) & maybe some more...

    Anyone have a power supply suggestion for this amp?

So after building the cmoy amp & bottlehead Crack OTL I decided finally after a few years I wanted another project to work on. I instantly began google searching speaker kits and stumbled upon the Parts Express Overnight Sensations MT bookshelf speaker kit.  The build didn't seem to difficult...

Quote:   it is a DIY kit, but bottlehead will assemble it for a fee im pretty sure. I was part of the first groupbuy i believe for the Crack amp . I don't really use the amp anymore but still deciding on whether I want to keep it or not, I have an emotional attachment too actually since I...

does anyone know what this amp is worth fully assembled & built without the upgrade kit?

So is there a Mini USB LOD cable, or is the standard cable being used as an import source to a DAC?

Westone IEMs are all ive ever owned. Ive had earbuds but IEMs are much better.....each model has impressed me and i only have the UM3x because my Westone 2s seem to have quality issues, ive gone through two pairs and the sound just stops working which i suspect is part of the build quality being...

Quote:     wow now these look promising & they are giving away some for free if your willing to review them.  I just recieved my Westones 2 back from warranty & looks like ive been given a replacement pair. Im very statisfied with the customer service but now make look into something...

Quote:     which ones? looks like its only one?  hehe

I have Westone 2's now for less then a  year. I was Jogging & the right side went out . Is it a bad idea to jog with IEMs? Do custom iem's protect better against moisture? Im just wondering if sweat got into the the monitor at all as thats the only thing I can think of that may have caused it to...

I told some of you about my other hobby during the meet. I like to ride motorcycles & had a trackday coming up the following weekend . Well as time came I not only had a great time dragging my knee on the ground for the first time. I also got meet the person pictured below who I thought might be...

Quote: I would like to work for this said company! If not hiring my existing company could use a pair as well :-)  . Oh & i heard them at the meet too! & now i want a pair

Quote: no , i only have the TRS connection & forgot competely...damnit! lol. I Kinda want that headphone!

I feel like I want a modded pair of HD800's that have a nice bass slam!    Quite impressionable! 

opps! lol . The front desk had no idea what I was talking about & was questioning the tube amp in hand,lol. Luckily I needed to come in to the office today anyways to get a few things done & I work 2mins away so I am at the office now. I'll try & pay more attention,lol

ok ill be heading down there in a bit

the HD600 pairs extremely well with the Bottlehead Crack that I just built & as reported by other users, I would like to think that is another option. It is designed for high impedence headphones so im sure it works really well with the HD800 as well.
