I am admittedly quite interested in the Danish Soekris DACs as well.

LJ, sorry to drag you in on this again but I kind of miss this. What is special about the Soekris DACs that pique your interest? Also I think you were trailing the Holo Spring DAC. What did you think about it compared with the Yggy and Gumby? Also have you any experience with any of the Denafrips DAC? Have you seen the Denafrips Pontus? Lastly, what in your opinion is the best DAC to get for a budget of $1500.

I'm deciding on a DAC to go with my Euforia so it's all relevant here.

Thanks in advance.
UT

PCT do you remember this voice?

In honor of one of the best days I am having in a long time, this is the way I feel

After the appointment of my special counsel Pct to handle my EL12 tube refund, I finally got a full refund today despite wege posting a picture of the smashed up tube.

Never underestimate the power of a special counsel.

In other news today, the Sylvania 6sn7w and Tung Sol 5998 is showing real class. I cannot stress how wonderful 5998 sounds and in combination with the 6sn7w, it's making headlines. Euforia is now a new beast. While I say that she sounds marvelous with Psvane 6sn7 and Mullard 6080, this other combination is just at another outer level.

The only "special counsel" I provide is to myself - that being to stop coming to this thread because it just costs me money. Now I have to start chasing a pair of Sylvania 6SN7W tubes

You no longer have to chase, just ask and I will tell you where to go!

This pair says it's “Digitally tested for superior accuracy!”

How do you test a tube digitally?

I don't know much about history or how to test a tube digitally (or anything else for that matter, including a head of cabbage). I'll stick around here for a while unless CF invites me to visit him in Michigan, in which case I'll plan a trip to Death Valley, California.

With a "digital" tester, apparently.

Why don't you both come to Barrossa Valley.

Yeah but that's giving you '1s' and '0s'. We want an analogue tester that says 'crap, mediocre or great'.

Hi UT and h1,

Finally got an opportunity to buy a T1 Gen 1 at a good price. It sounds very good, but I probably need some adjustment period compared to listening through speakers, even to the extent that I may need to use different tubes than what I am currently using with the speakers I have.

The lack of volume with 0.2A drivers is easily compensated with a power amplifier but less so with the Euforia alone, so I switched to Sylvania Chrome Top 6SN7GTA and TS 5998.

These headphones were sold "like new" and to me they appear new - how long of a break in period should I expect?

At what volume level are you using your T1s?

Is the serial number any clue to when they were made?

Oh connieflyer is a fellow Michigander? Where about do you stay?
