Well, damnation, but my quest for a dac/headphone amp with a remote volume control has so far been unsuccessful. Jan 7, 2024

      I really think Vali 1 does nice things for the low end hd558/598. It moves them into mid-fi.

      Personally, I like to believe that my Vali 1 will some day achieve collector's item status.

        It's a damn good tube amp. Scary good, in fact.

        Yeah, that's why it's called USB 2.0
        2s have a more well rounded top than 1s
        1s are pretty sharp (IMO)

        If you have a number 2 on your usb, then I think the sound is the least of your worries.

      I quit smoking by switching to vaping. Then I slowly reduced the nicotine strength of the vape liquid to 0 (zero) mg nicotine. It was easy.

        Same, the only downside is I really ended up enjoying vaping and my gear obsession doesn't end with audio.

      On headphones, I like to form a mental image of the location of the musicians, and then adjust the volume based on how close I want to be.

      Went to a performance of Beethoven's 9th last night, Seattle Symphony. They're a pretty top notch orchestra, and did a fine job on the 9th.
