I read a short comment in The Absolute Sound for the 2019 Axpona show about the new Linear Tube Audio Z10e headphones amplifier. This amp can run electrostatic headphones as well as planar and dynamic. I am wondering is any of the forum members were able to listen to it and can share your...

Does anybody know the full part number for the LEMO connectors used in the Ultrasone Edition 8 EX and Jubilee? The connector has an engraving with FGG.00. They are much smaller that the ones used in the Focal Utopia. Thanks,

I am sure many of you have heard about MIT cables. A company founded by Bruce Brisson back in 1984. Among the multiple technologies developed by MIT you will find the “Multipole of Articulation” named after the fact that every audio cable has a single point where it is most efficient at storing...

I have two speaker systems cobined with heandphone amplifiers in them too. In one of them I have a PS Audio PWD MK II with some upgrades and in the other one I have an original Wadia 27 DAC. Wadia does not offer the i and/or iX upgrades no more so this DAC only does Red Book CD (very well).  ...

My WA5-LE can use the ECC32 in the driver positions instead of a 6SN7. I have seen that the Mullard ECC32 are very looked after and expensive. Does anybody have expereince with these tubes? What is their sound signature and presentation? Are they worth the money?   Thanks.

  Chicago’s CanJam last June we my first one. I went there with the objective to listen to Electrostatic systems and specially the Stax SR-007MkII. I went into the Woo Audio room and got impressed by their organization and display of different amplifiers and headphones. Since my objective...

I ordered a WA5-LE with the EML B300 Mesh, Treasure CV181 and EML 5U4G Mesh tubes. I have head that the Tung Sol NOS 6F8G are great tubes and with adapters a direct replacement for the 6SN7 tubes. Is anybody using the 6F8G tubes in the WA5? What is your experience and opinion between using the...

I just bought a Theta Gen V version A balanced a few days ago. The unit looks like new cosmetically and sound perfect (although I was expecting a littl ebit more in the bass region) but it has a little electromechanical hum in the transformers.   After some investigation I found out that...

After many months undecided I finally ordered a pair of HD800. Since I started in the headphones world about 5 years ago I have owned the HD650 twice.
