    CanJam Singapore 2016 Impressions (February 20-21, 2016)

    Some rough impressions:   Schiit Yggdrasil and Ragnarok   I was told that the Yggdrasil requires a few days to warm up, and it was only powered on at 5am that day, so I expected a somewhat rough presentation with my HD800. Yes, it was a little harsh and rough at the higher frequencies, but...

    CanJam Singapore 2016 Impressions (February 20-21, 2016)

    Apologies for the few photos from me, I got lazy midway through the event and stopped snapping amidst the sheer amount of stuff to try.   Booths inside the main hall.     Something I was really looking forward to: Schiit Yggrasil and Ragnarok.     This is what we Singaporeans call...

      Good to see you again!     I got a local DIYer to install the caps for me, the V-Caps were bought from VH Audio. They have the option to match pairs or quads of caps.

    Normal black-based Mullard GZ34 should suffice. Brimar 5Z4GY is a good start. Few shops here sell 6080 variants so I had to turn to evil-bay.

      Nice! I don't have the LCD-X, but when I borrowed the LCD-2r2 for my WA22, I liked the following tube combinations: Mullard GZ34 metal base, Brimar CV1988 and Tung Sol 7236 or, United Electronics 596, Tung Sol 6SN7GT black glass round plate and GEC 6AS7       I really recommend them...

    V-Caps in da house. It's going to be a long 240-300 hours of burn in.

    For watches, The Bencoolen at Bencoolen Street has a lot of watch shops selling G-Shocks and 2nd hand/consignment luxury watches. Many of the G-Shocks there are grey market and are quite cheap. It's also nice to browse what the 2nd hand shops have; I picked up my Speedy Pro Transitional there.

      Some ideas:   Shopping: - Orchard Road; the national shopping belt. Branded boutiques galore. - City Hall area; The Adelphi is a shopping mall full of audio retailers, just across the road is Funan for computers and electronics, just across the road again is Peninsula for camera...

      Oh my WA22 already has Furutech rhodium IEC and fuse installed since day 1. I'd rather have my capacitors replaced locally and save on shipping from Singapore to America and back. Hence I am asking if I can get capacitors that are of the same value as the original capacitors, or if changing...

    Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite

    For those of you who have replaced the capacitors inside your amp, do you replace with the same capacitor value, or do you switch to different values for some capacitors? I'm asking as I know a local DIY shop who can replace capacitors, but he doesn't stock many of the premium brands. So I was...

    Speaking of tables and seats, would there be space for head-fiers to showcase their rigs? I believe some of the local head-fiers would be more than happy to show off what they have.

    For 6AS7G tube rollers here .....

    I still don't get why the Thomson boxes need to be so huge, they are taking up valuable space in my tube cabinet.   That said, I have rolled in right now, and I find them to be great value. They are hard to fault, maybe not on the same level as the premium 6AS7s, but they do many things...

    My 5Z4Gs from Langrex have arrived, however...     ...one of them seems to have picked up a tropical disease on the way here.   I'll give them a listen tomorrow, will give my impressions once they've clocked some hours.
