    New CDP

    Any Telefunken in that bundle?
  2. Just attended her concert yesterday night at the esplanade. A really good entertainer. B00009YXLE.01._SCMZZZZZZZ_
  3. Pretty sure not many of us have heard of this new phono pre-amp. Apparently it has received quite a rave review from Michael Fremer of Stereophile who compares it with a $26,000 phono pre-amp. Sound really interesting! Links to the reveiws are attached. http://www.amusicdirect.com/products/detai...30&sku=AWHEPS20

    I don't think it is a WBT RCA output.

    Looks well designed.. Mechanically as well.. They seem to have redesigned the loader mech. Should be more sturdy.. Good use of R-core, bobbin transformer as well.. They're known to be better for digital supplies. Tranditional E/ C core type transformer for the tube stage too.. Nice... Neat layout as well.. You've definitely got what you paid for... Remember to invite me over once the burn-in is complete.. LOL.. Sure thing. Maybe a couple of weeks more.
  7. Guess if you patient enough, you can wait. The other headphone/earspeaker you may want to try is the AKG K1000.

    Can't do that. The cdp, amp, all the tubes and the speakers are burning in.

    I guess at the end of the day is the synergy between the cdp, the amp and the speakers.

    Anyway some information about this new cdp. It has a choice of a tube output using a pair of 12AU7s or a solid state output. Upsamples all the way till 768kHz.

    Sharp eyes. Well they are the Mullards CV2492. I do have the Siemens CCa as well. The difference between the stock and the signature is that the signature version comes with oil caps and the ability to switch betwen triode (40Watts) and Ultralinear(80Watts).

    Definately having a good time tube rolling. So far been tube rolling the pre-amp tubes, 6922s. Will be upgrading the rectifier tubes and trying some power tubes sometime later.

    Purpose of buying this amp was to drive speakers not so much of headphones. The previous amp I bought, the CAD 300SEI was more suited for horns speakers. However a good pairs of horns will set me back by at least 16K.

    Barradio: I have already bought the CD303/200. Not too sure if MbD has the 306 in stock. Fuwen: It uses the 6922 as pre-amp tubes, 6SN7s as phase inverter, 6550 as power tubes and 5U4 as rectifier tubes. The EL34 and the KT88 can be used in this amp as well. av98m: Oh ya they are definately similing on me, bought myself some new tubes, more on the way!
  21. Believe me, I have tried various more than decent amps, cdp,interconnects and the various replacement cables with the HD600. They are not not suited for rock or fast paced music. It still can't beat a a SR225 paired with PCDP.
  22. One thing about the HD600, you really need an good amp to pair with it. If you are really on a budget, do consider the grado RA1, it does a pretty good job driving the HD600.
