  1. Ok. Received my Mullards yesterday evening. Burned in about 2 hours today. I don't have the vocabulary to describe the sound quality, but it is enough to say that the LD2++ has become my favourite amp and my music has become immensely more enjoyable. I can't imagine what it would sound like after prolonged use and, later, when they are paired with the Sovteks.
  2. I was looking for a pair of Mullard CV4015 M8161. Got it off ebay. The other tube is the Sovtek 6C19PI. This one I got off their website.
  3. Ok, nvm. I bought what I need off the internet.
  4. Besides Well Audio, Martin Electronics and Larry's Hifi, are there other places in Singapore that sell tubes for headphone amplifiers? Thank you!
  5. Sorry, I have to pull out of this MO. No._________Name_________ Quantity 1. Pegasus21 - 1 (Headphonehaven) 2. Scienfiend - 1 (Headphonehaven) 3. Ayeosq - 1 (Headphonehaven) 4. Xenocide - 1 (Sgheadphones) 5. nightbreed - 1 (Sgheadphones) 6. gin. - 1 (Sgheadphones)
  6. Heheh. My LD2++: My LD2++
  7. Collected mine. Thanks for the effort, clemo! I'm happy. But I'd be happier if I hadn't left my RCA-3.5mm cable in office. Now I can't hook up my DAP to it for a test run!
  8. I'll bite. No. Name Quantity 1. Xenocide 1 (Any option for black casing?) 2. nightbreed 1 (black casing would be nice, too.) 3.
  9. Well, that's that. Sent it back and got my money back. End of story.
  10. Some help please? I bought it so that I can play FLAC files. My M6 firmware version S1.009 has FLAC support and the player shipped with 2-3 FLAC files. I went home, deleted all the pre-loaded FLACs and MP3s, and then loaded my MP3s, about 200+. After transfer, I Safely Removed Hardware and the player didn't respond. At first I thought it hung, but now I know it was just processing the files and whatever. But then, at that time, I thought it hung, so I reset the player. Things went wrong from there on. I dowloaded the latest firmware, S1.010, and flashed the player. Transferred my MP3s and FLACs. PLayed a few MP3s, no problem. Played my FLAC...Lo and behold! the player hung. So, I reset, format, flash a few times with the same result. I went back to the shop, they tried playing my FLAC, and the player hung. Transferred my FLAC to their own player...it hung. And get this...they used their own FLAC (the ones pre-loaded and 1 other one from the internet) and it played with no problem on my player!!! I went home, tried my own FLAC and it hung!! What gives? I encoded using dBpowerAMP. I already have 2 DAPs without FLAC support (Zen Micro and Apple Shuffle), so I'm gonna be REAL angry if this M6 turns into just another MP3 player.
  11. Heheh. An RS-1 is "simple"? What I'm thinking of now is to use my Panasonic donno-what PCDP/Zen Micro/Shuffle 2G/laptop with Dr Head amp and Altec Lansing donno-what speakers/SR80/PX100/HTX7. I shall forgo the CDP, new speakers (had a brief listen to the nEar 04 and 05 today) and Cute Battery. All I need is a DAC to bypass my laptop's faulty sound card. Heheh. Just saved me a bunch of moola there. Then again, the DT880 I auditioned today was real nice... You right about the budget part, man. My bank account and me have not been on speakjng terms since I started earning $. My wife on the other hand is tolerant. Probably because she doesn't know the extent of the equipment I've got.
  12. Hi! Thanks for your reply! I went price-hunting at Adelphi earlier....sub $800 system is not possible.... Have to re-think.
  13. I'm thinking of getting a setup for my office. It's those offices with cubicles about 1.3m high, with a ceiling of about 3+m high. I'm looking for 1. CDP (if not, then source would be Zen Micro/Shuffle 2G/PCDP/Laptop) 2. Amp (most likely Firestone's Cute Battery - for headphones and/or Little Country for CDP) 3. Speakers (this one I have no idea what to get, but should be bookshelf) 4. Possibly a DAC (Fubar II....but is this necesary if I get a CDP? Hopefully, this will not cost me more than S$800. Thank you!
