In any case, I have enough tubes



NOMAX

Ps.lol

A lot of tubes, but really needed? SE802S are selected ECC802S - Telefunken, Tesla, JJ, etc.

Sennheiser HD660S2 in the same league as AKG K712, Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO (Amiron)?

Granted I only spent like 10 minutes with Traili, and my reference point is EE Legend EVO, but I wouldn't call anything about Traili "impressive" except its presentation of vocals. It somehow managed to separate the vocal from everything else and put it front and center in a most pleasing way. Everything else about it was "meh" IMHO. But if vocals are your thing, I can totally see why Traili would be your holy grail.

I am really surprised that no one mentions the most outstanding quality of the Traillii (besides the lovely female vocals), which is its separated and airy presentation. Music sounds so open and wide that I cannot believe it is an IEM I am listening to. Some tasteful bass eq and one reaches a real summit here.

Agreed the two best headphones they offer imo.

Did you get a chance to demo Brise silver in the end?

You convinced my wife to go to the next Canjam.

A number of folks tried my pair while I was at the MusicTeck table and preferred them to the others. But as with any IEM, everyone is a bit different. They did comment on the soundstage, the mids and the clarity.

What's the headphone amp placed over Sonnet DAC?
I guess those are two units of one stereo headphone amp, not 2 mono-blocks of the one amp, right?

There was such a difference that I am thinking of adding an external clock to my current equipment (Mola Mola TAMBAQUI).

Interesting. How you are planning to do that, as there is no external clock input on Mola Mola Tambaqui's rear panel as far as I know?

Since many have also asked me by message what my set up would be if I did not have the HE1
Stealth with the Zähl (soundstage knob on level one) and as source the Lotoo Mjolnir

DCA Stealth with the Zähl HM1, I get it, but why Lotoo Mjölnir? What's so special about this device? It is because it's battery powered? Thanks in advance

It's an ECP DSHA-3F. Nitsch is working on an updated version that should be available in the next month or so.

Having only very briefly owned those two years ago, it’s hard for me to comment. For sure it’s not a wide soundstaging headphone like the K712, and definitely isn’t as splashy and sizzley as the 1990 in the treble. From memory, that’s about as much as I can say…

Not owned the K712 and it's been a while since I've had the 1990s (which I loved), and based on less-than-ideal listening to the HD660S2 at Canjam, I'd say it's closer in technicalities to the DT1990's than any other 6x0's I've owned (600, 660s, 58x?). 660S2 sounds better extended than its predecessors, faster transients, slightly better imaging/staging, I'd say. But whether one is better than the other, I can't say.

@Sebastien Chiu - Is that DMS in disguise as a cop, or just someone who has an interesting style?
