Feliks Audio ENVY

[Newsee]

What if ZMF partnered with Feliks and made a stabilized Envy. Just saying!

Just say to them. Their boot was next to each other on the HIGH END Munich exhibition.

You can order stabilized Envy with the custom wood options but these are significantly more expensive.
(Like +2k depending on wood)

I'm curious how these headphones connect to Envy. Do any of you already have them or are you planning to check them out?

Agree!
just yesterday I got my 6FG8 to 6SN7 adapters from Deyan and they combine really good with Woo socket savers, but still waiting for my Tungsol 6FG8 to arrive.

Finally got my TS 6F8G. At last some driver tubes that compete in high with the mighty Elrogs .
Nice combo, however I noticed some noise in mid gain, don't know how would you call it, it sounds like it would be "ground noise", and is sensible to touch (either the base or the black cable) and is also volume variable but very peculiar, it goes up with the volume but close to max it starts to disappear. Because of the last I believe this could be some electromagnetic interference and seems I would need some ferrite chokes. In low gain the noise is heard very subtle only.

has anyone else experienced the same?

Tung Sol Round Plate!

I just briefly tested them with the Susvara.
They are nuts when it comes to instrument seperation and soundstage, everything sounds as tall and big like i'm listening to an Arya v2. While they do not sound sharp at all, they are clearly (HA!) not warm, no added lushness. Of course the Susvara sounds still very musical and sweet because it's a Susvara. I am eager to hear what they do with the 1266 when it comes to electronic music.
They are very neutral while still not having flaws like harsh S consonants like solid states. The detail they provide is crazy good. Super bass and treble extension, as expected. They are also dead quiet.
The investment was well worth it for me, now i'm good until the closed Caldera comes out.

The 6F8G can be fairly microphonic.

The 6F8G can be fairly microphonic.

thanks but this has nothing to do with microphonics, it's purely electric, magnetic.
Passing my hand in the middle, without touching, also affects the noise, so the adapters are mostly affected by magnetic fields.

OK.........a faraday cage would quiet these down. I'll post a picture later today.

Any links available for these?

I used the Woo adapters for those as well "6F8G/6C8G>6SN7".

Was silent for me with my Tung-Sol VT-99 Round Plates.

Nope, sorry, i bought them locally. 700€, which is a lot, but still less than those G-73R.

They might be these otherwise referred to as "Black Beauty"?

Interesting as they have those "mouse ears" like the Melz 1578.

Interesting!

Thanks. I looked there also before I got mine from Deyan but they were sold out (still).
