Hi isquirrel,
Thank you very much for the great comparison.  You mentioned earlier that the Elrogs have 250 hours on them, while the Takatsuki's have 150 hours.  Are you noticing any more changes in the Takatsuki's as you use them more? I'd be very interested to hear your opinion once both pairs have reached 300 hours.
Thanks!

Anyone know if Woo still respond to their email?
I emailed Jack a number of times to check on a package I sent him and not getting and response.

Jack's usually pretty prompt unless he's on the road.

  Was that Jack in the video about the Audeze heist?
If so, maybe he's been busy trying to help out with the situation?


I have this picture in my head of Jack carrying a sort-of Ghostbusters plasma rifle made from milled aluminum, sprouting tubes everywhere, sneaking around looking for the thieves.

 Was that him, because the heading on the video said "Woo Audio"?

Strange, I tried to email him, so far once a week, it's been 3 weeks and he hasn't got back to me yet.
It would be nice for him to acknowledge that he receive the package.
 
Let me email him again.
*Edit* Jack responded...all is good.
 
On other notes, I got the HE headphone adapter and didn't think it's better than the HPH out.  I thought the adapter muddied up the sound, bass did increased, but sound stage collapsed a bit, symbal didn't sound as natural with the adapter.  I prefer the HPH out better.

It is interesting how folks hear things differently. I found the adapter box a much better experience with the HD800 than the HPH output, as did a fellow headfier in A/B testing. I didn't notice any muddiness or reduction in sound stage - just the opposite to my ears.
 
I will A/B test again this weekend. Could be that I got it wrong the first time, or more likely I am hearing the result differently.

Yeah what wonderful hobby we're in, I'll spend more time with it too.. I did enjoy the adapter though, it did calm some of the harshness of the HD800.

Can you post a link to the specific speaker-out adapter box you are using? Thanks, in advance.

If you're looking for Tung Sol 5998's I've decided to sell my last remaining pair.  They were bought NOS and matched... have about 250 or so hours on them now.  No tube noise, microphonics or any BS.  Dead quiet.  $199 + $12 USPS Priority shipping to CONUS only.  I'll eat the Paypal fee.  PM me.
