How it sounds?
I have the an E17 and the T1, if you like bright I would say go for the T1. Also since you didn't like the E07K I can pretty much guarantee you won't like the E17, the sound signature would probably sound the same as the E07K for you.
Another thing to consider is that you can always find a tube to suit your sound preference with the T1, but if you don't like the E17 then you're stuck with that, or face paying the to ship it back for refund.
A question to the other people reading this thread, I bought a Holland GE ECC85 tube a few months ago and it has been pretty damn good but it's recently developed a distortion on the mids and lows, does this mean the tube has reached the end of its life?
I've been switching between a 6922EH and Vokshod Rocket in the meantime while waiting for a Mullard ECC85 to arrive.
@rovopio+1 to what zoney said. Fiio is a warmer fuller signature, It has similarities to the vmodas that you've tried. The t1 is more like the grados.
@zoneykidI don't think it's the tube going bad, if it's bad, usually it's not just sectional but rather the whole spectrum is affected. Try cleaning the pins and reseating the tube.
thank you for the answers... so,, about the tube testing, is that something i hv to be concern about.
from reading ebay some sellers write "tested for gas and short leak". im going to put this in my room and i have OCD. is gas something i need to worry about?
will the gas gets me (more) mentally sick like the effect of carbon monoxide poisoning or smthn...

really sorry for the weird question, but im genuinely curious

"certain time period" = roughly how long?
Are the tube pins clean? (H202+high concentrate vinegar)
Do you hear anything when you turn it on at full gain and full volume?
If you're on a windows machine, it could be the usb settings. After a time that the OS deems the USB is idle, it sets it low power. If the time period is consistent, my money's on that.
Yes, LINK. Give that a try.
