Awesome collection! Congratulations!

So which ones you like best and on what amps/dacs?

Thank you

My personal preference is the 009BK closely followed by L700 OG/Mk1 for DAC I have the Denafrips Terminator DE customized edition, Gustard X26 Pro and AMPs - KGSSHV Carbon, KGSSHV, Megatron, besides a few STAX drivers etc.,

Ultra-Fi USB (B) cable

Evidently things are hopping in rural New York State! That Wadia is pretty cool...

My current rig (details in sig). VC is not in pic.


Too bad I can't place the DDC on the center of the DAC because of the very stiff I2S cable (purple). I don't want to stress the cable by forcing it too much. So DDC must be off-center to give the cable some slack.

Thanks... I wish my N100H were in black. Too bad the seller didn't have the black one when I bought it few years ago.

RS6 does surprise me with its capability to drive 4Z. Definitely a really nice transportable set up. I can imagine it is a perfect combo to listen on the bed before sleep rather than use full desktop chain.

Anyway, my honeymoon phase is still not over yet

Will be so difficult to you to depart from your Empys (I saw you reopened your classified listing).

Every now and then we face some tough decisions in life, do not we?

Parting ways witg the Empys is the wrong decision anyways

Care to elaborate? Openly labelling my decision 'bad' without knowing my background just made me curious.

Looks really great. Is that an ICan Signature? Do you have experience as to how it compares with the "old" version?

I tested the original Pro iCan, but that was quite some time ago. Take my word with a grain of salt as I am speaking from memory here. This is what I said in my review: "As I mentioned earlier, I do not have the original iCan Pro with me, but from memory the Signature is perhaps a bit warmer, more natural. I remember, the treble occasionally came across as dry and bright on the original version, but I never had that impression with the Signature."
Apart from this perhaps the background is even more 'black'. I think the Elite PSU plays a big role here.

Here is mine!

MacMini+Roon ->Sonnet Hermes -> Sonnet Morpheus -> Rogue RH5 / MHZ Musicale

'MHZ Musicale' is a really impressive aftermarket italian heaphones amp: full tubes, 6922 + EL34.

Lovely Set-up, simple but effective. Elite easily one of the most comfortable HPs out there. I tried directly from empy, out of the bat elite has much more air than the former. Need more listening time to assess further especially after breaking in.

I forgot the headphones!

Impressive! The minute amp is terrific!

Nice setup and some familiar looking components! That Italian amp looks really cool.

Yes it is. I'm waiting for Svetlana Winged C EL34 and Tesla NOS ECC88 from UK next days for the maximum performance.
