Hey guys
Calgary here... A big huge fan of Sennheiser HD-650's. Started with HD-558's, tried AKG K702's, HE-500's, some Grados, but the HD-650's are the only ones I've kept. Love the romantic, dark sound which scales beautifully with amps.
Currently using an Aune T1 tube buffered 24/96 DAC that I've upgraded the capacitors in. Love the tube rolling options with the 6DJ8 family of tubes, and the fact that the DAC only uses one tube. Currently loving the pinched waist Amperex/Phillips tubes in the DAC.
When I'm home, I use my Woo WA2 with 7236 power tubes (or GEC 6080 tubes), and Philips Miniwatt E188CC drivers. It's either driving the Senn's, or going through a Yamaha AS500 to some PMC speakers I have. The PMC's are very neutral sounding, with a nice airy open top end.
I'm obsessed with music, tube rolling and running. Too bad I live in Calgary where it's always snowy. Haha. Guess we didn't get it as bad this winter as Atlantic Canada.
Feel free to PM or join me at the next Calgary meet... Whenever we sort out the logistics. I'm also selling a Woo WA7, feel free to PM if you're interested. Tough to find gear in the homeland a lot of the time. Nice to meet you all!
