What did you buy today? (Part 1)

I really like what my Dekoni Suedes do for my DT-880(600ohm). But i just looked at the dekoni chart for these new hybrids and that increased 10k spike looks a little scary. Just be careful.

Grabbed a little something from Adorama today to go with my GS-X Mini when it comes in.

Got these today. Sadly I think burson made a whoopsy and sent me x2 singles instead of the x1 double. Will these still fit the original xd-05 or do I need to exchange these?

Hello,
are the opamps you received single or dual?

If your Xudoo needs a dual and you got a single, it doesn’t fit. Then it goes up in smoke.
It would be good to compare the number before installation to be sure.

Edit:When I compare your picture with the one from Burson, you have an S for single and the homepage has a D, presumably for dual.
I’ll see what mine says. I have a Dual here.

Edit again: This are an Dual from mine who i have.You see it have a D for Dual on the upperside.

Thanks. I guess I’ll exchange them.

Check the Xudoo to see which opa you have installed and then check the datasheet to see if it is a single or dual op amp.

I don’t need to. I opened it up and the socket will only fit one, so I need a double.

Also I checked my order confirmation email and I think I made the whoopsy.

Okay,i have see it on this Homepage.

Yes, it is a pity that the sender has afforded a woppsy.
That can happen.

There is another grandpa manufacturer in America, Sparko Labs, who are not bad either.
But I don’t have it myself.
I don’t think the Burson is bad, but it wasn’t my cup of tea on the Little Dot mk 1+.

It seems I don’t understand the concept of DOWNSIZING and simply letting go…
I sold one amplifier and somehow between the moment I shipped it and now managed to order…
Grado- PS2000e HP
Kennerton- Gjallarhorn HP
Decware- Taboo Mk4 amp

These arrived yesterday. Still trying to form an opinion. They are not closed back Clears. That is for sure. They do seem more comfortable though. Took me a while to get used to them after wearing the Clears the last 4 months.

Element II does not get enough play. It sounds great, it’s super compact and it has the sexiest knob, period. Only downside for me is the whole “hold to change, press to turn off”. Change this and I’m a happy camper, like forever.
