    VE Monk IE Biggie and Smalls - Discussion and Impressions

    Which Comply foam tips are you all using? I'm having trouble getting good a good seal with the supplied silicone and aftermarket Spinfit tips.

    Shozy Cygnus Official Thread

    IMO, if you already have the Cygnus there isn't a benefit to owning the pk3, or pk2. Although both are decent, the Cygnus SQ is better in almost all regards. I never find myself wanting to listen to the pk3 or pk2.

    Shozy Cygnus Official Thread

    Owning both the PK2 and PK3, as well as the Cygnus, I can assure you this is false. The shell design is very popular, second only to the Monk style shell. They are all completely different buds.

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    I'm more concerned that the NOS tubes will likely become prohibitively expensive, rather than disappearing. Unless we find some more cheap-ish gems like the Rockets. It doesn't seem like anyone has really tried much beyond the JJ's for new production tubes. Maybe I can try and budget for a few...

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    I know the Gold Lions had some favor back in the earliest days of the previous thread, and as much as I love some of the NOS tubes (currently '76 Rockets; had some '68 OG's that I never really liked), I'm really curious what the opinion is on some of the new production tubes. After all, the good...

    Schiit Lyr - The tube rolling thread

    Has anyone tried the Chinese equivalent of the 6DJ8, the 6N11?    http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Shuguang-Chinese-6N11-6922-6DJ8-Vacuum-Tube-2PCS-/120649841315   Curious if these sound any good since they're so cheap.

    Schiit Lyr - The tube rolling thread

    I have some 68 Amperex OGs I purchased from mercedesman a few months ago. I've never been completely satisfied with their sound, and actually prefer the stock GE tubes. Soundstage loses some depth on the GEs but the bass impact and overall balance is better to my ears. That being said I'd love...

    Amp for AKG k702?

    Thanks again everybody. A lot of varying opinions around here, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to try these amps in person so all I have to go on are other people's impressions of certain amps with the k701/k702. I guess I'm still torn between the Canamp and the Compass. I...

    Amp for AKG k702?

    Thanks for the quick reply. I'll look into the Canamp as I've seen that mentioned a few times. Still looking for recommendations for DAC/AMP combos, but maybe I don't even need a DAC?

    Amp for AKG k702?

    First let me apologize if this thread is redundant. Too many posts to sift through when searching for amp and k70x. If someone can direct me to the appropriate thread (if there is one) I would be grateful. I just purchased a pair of k702s and my Headsix just isn't cutting it. I'm coming out...
