Headphoneus Supremus
Thanks. I ordered 20. (That doesn't bode well for me.)
On a related matter:
Received the Foton flat T-Plate from Upscale. I removed the Ken-Rad while whispering to it in a reassuring tone that this was just temporary and it was getting a much deserved rest. Once the KR was secured in the storage box and could not see what I was doing, I placed the Upscale purchased Foton in the Lyr 3. It's only been about 60 minutes and I'm liking what I hear. The mids seem more pronounced (not sure if it's overly so until it's fully cooked) and more layers. Bass doesn't seem too shabby either. Of course, I'm not listening in an overly critical fashion at this point, as it is way too early in the tube simmering process.
I also received the Westinghouse GTB, but that will be for another time, as I don't want to rush things or risk the wife seeing it just yet. **
** It's not that she's a B**** about it, it's just the disappointed look and head-shake resulting yet another attempt at me explaining my obsession in hopes that she'll finally get it. (And my knowing deep down inside, that she never will.) Damn, her practical side!!
