I appreciate the honest feedback. Let you know when I get mine!
By the way, I just took a look at your profile. You're not still stuck with the stock driver tube are you? Any tube will be better than that one.
Ever thought of replacing the HDVD800 with a Black Widow? I think you'd be pretty amazed, the BW is a SS amp that can breathe some life into your music where the HDVD is pretty dull to my ears. And it's a better match for both your Senns than the Senn amp is.
Otherwise, very very nice setup and selection of cans if you ask me!
Oh and Roon. What do you think of it and how do you use it?
I downloaded a trail over a year ago and couldn't find my way.
I' guess I'm too old and stubborn and have a hard time moving from my Clasic iTunes view, you know, the one with the column browser on top.
Lets me find evrything I want by selecting the categories on top or doing a simple search and with Roon I had the feeling I didn't know where my music was, I missed an overview.
But I know I'm wrong in thinking that, I just don't know how to use it. Any tips?
And I'm also worried it will change some of my metadata. I have mine pretty costomised, I use my own genres.
For example some music that is based on classical music but performed with other music I call "Classicish". That genre also includes some soundtracks with big orchestras. Rock from the 60s till now on the other is split up to different genres like flower power, hardrock, metal (I don't need to spilt up various metal genres, anything heavier than hardrock is metal to me), etc... . You see, only usable for myself.
So is there a way to tell Roon to not to touch any of your metadata when it scans your Library?
And on the Library topic, how do I do that? Let it refer to my iTunes Library so the music is still accessible from both apps? Doesn't it mess up my Library then? An iTunes Library is pretty fragile ...
