Got my second tube amp which is powered by 300B (Little Dot LD-Y2). Too little time for music indeed.
Amazing fireworks show with the 2021 WE300B on the Little Dot LD-Y2.

Sweet! What do you think of the latest WE reissues?

May need at least 100 hours for burning in. First impression is very good and it preserves the same WE sound signature of the vintage one. Amazing soundstage, smooth and a bit forward mid, but the high low dynamic should further improve after the burn in.

Nice Schiit stack. Always gotta go with the black Schiit products they just look the best.
It ain't pretty yet. I still need to re-arrange stuff and get all my cables in to have it all prettied up, but it's mine.
Bifrost 2/Jotun 2, WA22 and Diana TCs. Going to try to use the WA22 as a preamp once my new cables come in and see where that gets me.

Most definitely. Looking to trade my WA22 for a black one to complete the black set.
They look cool for realTo @Silver Wolf: These are tremendous…AND they look like Head-Fi ‘moai’ on Easter Island !
At risk of being a party-pooper, they can be bad for the headbands though. They stretch them out. It’s best to get some stands that are tall enough for the cables and let the earcups rest naturally. I’m also working on the theory that laying the headphones down on a shelf, or soft cushion/pad, is probably best for the headphones in the long term. But it’s not convenient and it looks bad. Beauty over function

I have many in my studio and too many elsewhere lol....
Some are custom Akubra's (by myself/wife) and others are handmade rabbit/beaver fur-felts made by myself or better half.

I'll take some front on photos when I get a chance but there is little-to no pressure placed upon the ear pads/cushions for the most part on many of my headphones and I have a large head lol. (size 62) But all my headphones get rotated and spend limited time on display stands either way... It's all good, I love them !
Edit: To add to this in part this is also why you see so many of my felt hats in my studio, besides the fact I have to remove them when wearing a set of cans but fur felts and poly-felts are exceptional at offering control of stray frequencies, standing waves 'n reflections etc.
2nd edit to add photos:
There's 5mm-10mm of clearance on most of my tighter cans such as Focals. sorry for low quality bad phone pic..just for example.
