      Took my first stab at building a headphone stand from scratch... 2x8 piece of oak cut up with a router then stained and some copper...

        Good on you! Wasn’t trying to minimize your excellent work. More highlighting my laziness. :)

        Thank you! With only a little bit of listening time the Lyr 3 is turning out to be an awesome birthday present! Only tube i've tried is a Sylvania '52 3 hole BB and it's pretty fantastic. Will have to compare to kenrad vt-231 and raytheon vt-231

      Ordered a pair of Octal LISST to play around with in the output stage of Freya with KenRad or Raytheon VT-231's in gain. Anyone tried this?

      All this excitement over Yggdrasil Analog 2... can anyone say for certain us Gungnir Multibit owners have something similar on the horizon?

      First experience with planars... initial impressions: Gungnir Multibit + Freya + Jot + HE-560 balanced = Highly enjoyable. Focus A Pads still on way...

        New Tung-Sol are probably your best bet for transparency at a reasonable price. Stuff like Sylvania 6SN7GTB are great, but can have a bit of bloom.

        Or 7N7 with adapter :)
        Those Sylvania 7n7's are a well kept secret :)

        It'll be automated. They'll have systems that automatically delete spam, and they'll just include "SBAF" etc on the list of keywords. Chances are that no human ever even saw your post.

        But, of course, a human set up the rules.

        My interest in headphones is nowhere near big enough to support two sites and hey, head-fi? I've forgotten it already.

        Shopping list for the year:
        Gungnir Multibit ASAP
        Freya / Jot / Replace SU-1 with Lynx E22 (as budget allows)
        I foresee a great year in audioland for me.
