Audio-Technica AT-BHA100 & AT-DAC100
Well, I really cannot see how that "spec checking" is a valid argument for terminating a product (even when it has certain consequences commercially). I cannot either see how a Topping line of products competes there, design- and quality wise. For each bunch of people who go after that type of...- sejsel

Audio-Technica AT-BHA100 & AT-DAC100
Sent a PM instead, since I would not want to derail this thread, which is after all about this fine (and sadly discontinued) headphone amp from Audio Technica.- sejsel

Audio-Technica AT-BHA100 & AT-DAC100
There are stories like that all over the place in the head-fi world... The amp I finally purchased (way after demoing it) wiped the floor (and the difference was not even subtle) with one "competitor", and then only got discontinued (even its successor got discontinued, which really was a...- sejsel

Audio-Technica AT-BHA100 & AT-DAC100
That is really a good point, raised here. I understand that it is done (most likely) out of hard commercial deliberation, but still... One other amp which I happen to own, as well as it successor have also been discontinued (according to me - a wrong move, as well as in this case with the AT...- sejsel

Woo's New Flagship WA33
There is still that detail with the lifetime of a certain tube in a certain amplifier. This is not now regarding the WA33 per seï, but in general, regarding the tube amps.- sejsel

Woo's New Flagship WA33
I presumed this when I asked... the question (put naïvely) is then how the el-circuit is designed, and is it supposed to be that way at all, when it comes to headphone amps... Tubes being a part of the electrical circuit, in this case an (headphone) amplifier, should be, by the design of the...- sejsel

Why would a well known manufacturer of tubes stated that, specifically in relation to the WA33?- sejsel

Why are the PS1000e so underrated?!
Interesting pair, these... Fast forward, after a substantial period of burn-in (6 hours each night, about two months). A lot has changed with these. Which makes all of this - in particular my previous post(s) here rather funny, and sort of half-embarrassing, in retrospective. While...- sejsel

Why are the PS1000e so underrated?!
Well, there seems to be some problem with the quotes and multi-quotes in the head-fi editor - nevertheless - @mortcola - very eloquently written (as always, since I have read most of your posts about the Grado PS series). I love Grados for all the qualities you mention - hence, I was a bit...- sejsel

Why are the PS1000e so underrated?!
Well, from everything I have read across this and some other threads, that extensively mention the Grado PS1000e (PS1Ke) - I think we might AS WELL deal here with some variation between the units. Of course we all do hear differently, but it is a bit difficult to comprehend such variation in...- sejsel

QUAD PA-One Valve Headphone Amplifier and DAC
Quite well, actually. If you read the reviews on the web, in particular one certain review, but even others, the saying goes that it much improves with some tubes better than stock/supplied ones.- sejsel

Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7b Impressions & Discussion Thread
To each his own, but I respectfully fully disagree on this account. I have used the MSR7b, and still own the MSR7, and they (the latter) actually have an abundance of well measured, tight, punchy and very present bass. Any more would simply inflict negatively on the rest of the picture (lower...- sejsel
