I sure wish that you spend a little more time listening to the system, but then again 15 mins of a private audition is really all you need any way. You mean, you can tell a mongrel from a purebred in 15 minutes...? I thought they were all mongrels.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randerson3024 Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 The fucking price is retarded! And what's worse, I'm actually figuring out a way to buy a set anyway. Motherfuckers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the Amp fully warmed up? It looks like the internal DAC was used with the cable going into the USB slot, what software was used as the player, and what tracks were used? Looks like Tyll admits the demo is almost useless and he needs more time. He needs to have HIS choice of tracks and at least an hour IMO to get a handle on the SQ. Also I find my 009s need a decent amount of volume to come on song as well, so if the usual volume control and track restrictions are applied by Senn again, that would affect the demo as well. It would be interesting to know if the boundaries of Stat tech has been pushed further albeit with no budget constraints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefQon Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 I wonder when these will be released, wouldn't mind seeing if an Australian distributor will get a hold of one so I can listen to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not importing them as they are not worthy of importing (enormous price tag and no one who will buy one). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icarium Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 damn retractable tubes? is that the final frontier in audiophile tweaks? adds +500 to the microdyamix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 The audiophile tweak would be to defeat the moving parts, neh? That's just showing off/flagrant consumerism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 This does play into the EU regs for using tubes as they must be fully enclosed. Well than there is the wank factor which this product is full of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well than there is the wank factor which this product is full of. I don't know in detail how EU regs look like (especially if they apply to products currently sold, or retroactively), but there are tube amps in stores without fully enclosed tubes. Would be interesting to know since when is EU directive or reg is effective. There could still be some advantage to that EU reg ...

spritzer Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 The amps can't get CE certification with exposed tubes. No way around that so most have an "optional" tube cover which nobody buys. That amp looks like something from ETF so hardly commercial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
