I have seen people recommended, on many occasions, that the csp3 is very very good with HD650. Since i already have the mini torii also from decware, i want to try different amps. But i will definitely think about it.    Yeah, plus it's cheap. Guess i really to dust my soldering kit and get...

Hello, i'm looking for a new amp for the HD650. I've been a long time owner of HD650, i used to drive this can with cavalli's bijou OTL tube amp and it is fantastic until i got my LCD2/mini torii but i still miss the HD650's intimacy.   I've shortlisted some of the potential amp that i'm...

    The Mini-Torii

Looks like couple of people who owns mini torii is having the same problem. Yeah, ill give Steve a call Wednesday to address the problem.

Quote: Thanks! Maybe someone here with MT could chip in and help me resolve this issue? 

my mini torii is not fortunate. One more problem is that i need to almost dead short the speaker plugs with 1.5ohm to get rid the hum to acceptable level. Could this be grounding issues? Quote:

I have a mini torii that i'm pairing exclusively with lcd2 rev2. Anyone getting sort of like a 60Hz hum with this amp? I've return the amp twice for couple of errors previously but i'm getting this 60Hz hum now. Just want to hear insight from you guys. 

Im torn between buying wa6se or decware taboo. Has anybody heard both and would kindly give me some feedbacks? 

Hi all, i dont have much experience with electrical stuff although I DIY my own bijou. I have a lcd-2 with me and i understand OTL would not drive low imp to full potential.   But i'd like to know whats the power output of bijou at its default configuration? I've tried searching on this...

I personally feels that headphones with emphasized treble tends to have wider soundstage. I'm personally comparing my HD650 with DT990 600ohm.  what's your opinion on this?

Quote: I had my HD650 for 2 years and i sold it off to a friend of mine cause i was pretty sicked of the sound. I bought DT990/600 ohm instead, to pair with my bijou tube amp. The pairing is awesome! Great detail, highs, good distinct bass. But the one thing i miss bout my HD650 is the...

Quote: well, i do know how to calculate the value of the cap from the given db freq, but how much is of a drop is sufficient? is it totally up to our preference and we just play around with the value?    Heat them up in the oven? wow, i didn't know that! lol. let us know how it goes...

Quote: How do you know what amount of uf to put in the output? i pair bijou with a DT990/600 ohm and was planning to upgrade the output caps. Everything in my bijou is stock  

Hello, To all that had modified or maxxed out this lovely amp. i was wondering if you can give me some advice on maxing out my bijou as well. I built this amp 2 years back (stock) and am loving it with DT990/600 and i want to max it out. I've been reading this form occasionally and had...

I was wondering has anybody tried it on Cavalli's bijou amp?

I don't know if this is the best way to post this but I didn't want to create a thread on this. I was wondering if anybody has heard LCD-2 on this amp? I am about to purchase a LCD-2 but i wonder if its gonna work wonders with the bijou.

Great! that was the reply i was hoping for =)

Has anybody here tried pairing HE-5 or HE-5LE with bijou??   I heard HE5/5LE is pretty power hungry. =)   Sam.

Sorry FallenAnge. I'll try to make it as specific as possible. =) Nevermind with the Nippon cap, I've swap it with my original Panasonic electrolytic TS-ED 470uF/250V cap. Regarding the second part. Maybe I should rephrase it this way. What are the pros and cons on both of these designs? I...

Oh, sorry. My output caps is Nippon Chemicon. I'm new to this. What are the most significant difference in sound between these two designs?

I'm using Panasonic cap for my output. How different are these two designs?

Hello guys. I have the opportunity to compare a Melos amp with my Bijou amp. Actually this is my first time comparing both amp side by side thus i need some of your opinion. I love the melos soundstaging compared to the bijou. The instruments seems a lil bit further from my head (which i...
