@OCC7N Jumper settings are stock. Haven't tried doing anything yet, I figured with the external PSU it shouldn't make that big of a difference. @sajunky First i turned the power on the DI20HE off and plugged the usb out but didn't wait long, didn't unplug the power cord and waited maybe 5-10...

I have a bit of a story with some questions for the more digital-minded among us. System - PC with jcat usb xe + clock + external psu -> DI20HE with external clock -> Dave/Gustard R26 with external clock -> Primavera I always leave my gear running 24/7 ( except the PC and the amplifier ). Over...

Flawless transaction - responsive contact, quick shipping and the item arrived as described. Easy recommendation!

Does anyone know if it's possible to order just the mounting rings for the pads? I reached out to Ryan a few days ago, but can't really expect to get an answer, he must be flooded with messages.

The only remaining part from the original he-6 are the 4 screw drivers and maybe the metal in the headband. So I guess it's a lot. Wooden Cups, different shape, mini XLRs, magnetic pads, fuzzors, vents in the cups, placing drivers further from the ear ... quite a bit. The result is my favourite...

I think if You already own 437a, the difference won't be that big. But it's just a hunch, spec wise both tubes are definitely top choices. And the owner was very clear in his intentions :beyersmile: Not selling.

DS Tungstens have finally arrived. Obviously it will take a week or two to let both them and myself get "burned in", but the first impressions are definitely positive. Over the years I have attempted to upgrade my Shipibo modded HE-6, but sadly to no avail. Purchased Susvara twice on two...

Not too long ago I was able to borrow a pair of Telefunken EC8020s. Purchased the necessary adapters from Deyan and spent a couple of days with them. I've tried the obtainable 6C45P-E variants/equivalents, but never experienced the super tube (we 437a or tfk ec8020). Currently using the Electro...

If You are an Empyrean fan, I suppose the Tungsten really shouldn't be for You :beyersmile: At least based on the initial descriptions. In fact, I'm not sure if there are other high-end headphones with similar signature. Can't think of any.

Yep, nov 3rd, ds version. I suppose domestic orders have a priority over international ones, because they don't require filling these pesky duty forms. Though if it doesn't depart by the end of the Sunday, I'll send an email, because there is a world where my order simply got lost.

Hold Your horses with all of the estimates and calculations guys. It might be true that the order 8814 has shipped, but the 8811 has yet to do so :beyersmile:

Does anyone know the current expected lead time for Immanis/Magna in Europe? @Aleksandar R.

If an owner of the Trafomatic Primavera ever decides to pick these up, feel free to share Your thoughts and tag me! Can't wait to try them during one of the shows ( or maybe a demo will appear in Poland one day ), though based on some of the initial impressions I'd probably need to change some...

On a different note - I hope that the influx of the new ~2-3k-4$ headphones ( Empyrean II, Charybdis, Tungsten ) will results in even better TOTLs planars. I obviously understand that for most value per dollar is the most important metric, but ngl. I'd love to see Susvara successor, 1266 TC...

Apologies for the question, but did You order them on November 3rd or earlier? I'm trying to figure out if the Nov 3rd batch has started shipping :beyersmile:

I have a Cybershaft Palladium Clock with OP19 + LTPW01 Power Supply and with cybershaft BNC cable included ( as far as I remember its 50 Ohm). I am still using it on my Audio-GD DI20HE - it effectively doubles the soundstage height and opens it up to an incredible level. Price: 2100 euro...

Maybe a bit of a long shot, but I'm looking for a pair of WE 437A or perhaps Telefunken 8020 tubes. Looking for NOS and matched pairs with decent measurements, since NOS alone might be tough to find. If anyone knows any shop that currently has them in stock (tested and matched) feel free to let...

I have an Mscaler for sale. The unit is silver, 230V, in very good condition, purchased from polish distributor. Never had any issues, works flawlessly. Date of purchase - february 2023, so there is still warranty (all polish shops show that it is 24 months, so 13 months left). I have the...

Auris Headonia - previously a flagship headphone amp from Auris. The sound is spacious and magical though on a high technical level. As far as I know the unit is around three years old - I am the second owner and I've purchased it aprox. a year ago. It no longer has a warranty, but it has been...

Looks like You're as starved for the new "best" headphone as I am. But to be fair to Mod House, this is quite a revolution for them. And I really hope these Tungstens punch above their weight, because that would inevitably lead to a successor :beyersmile: To me the most frustrating cans are...

I've finally finished building my rig. There are 17 cables in the audio chain alone(not including PC and TV cables) and it is a massive pain to move. I will eventually get some speakers, although so far I haven't been too impressed with what I've auditioned ( and my room will undoubtedly have...

@Tulon Apologies for potentially stupid question, but which version (single or double) should scale better with better/more powerful system? Or in different words, which one has the higher potential? I tend to have some bias towards hard to drive headphones, as they often seem to respond to...

Can't wait to read what You'll have to say. One question though: did You ask Sasa whether the EC8020 would even work? There is hardly anything online about them sadly.

Apologies for the confusion, but the thread is currently a bit hard to track due to some ... differences in opinions. I'm using an Audio-GD DI20HE (50 ohm) and as a final step of upgrade I was looking for a clock. Here is a list of clocks I have on my radar and I'm currently reading about: LHY...

Just an update on the Primavera: it took 4-5 days for the bloody thing to figure out how to present the soundstage. For the first few days, the vocal was borderline inside my skull with little to no depth to the stage. Initially, the sound in front was also placed way too high, which is typical...
