Freak & Fireflies 30Jun17

I took advantage of a special offer to upgrade my gen 1 WooAudio 7 Fireflies integrated headphone tube DAC/AMP. I just received the gen 2 back along with another upgrade - a WooAudio WA7TP tube power supply mated to the WA7. Awesome. The DAC/AMP update was for a better audiophile DAC and better USB circuits. The WA7TP replaces a solid state brick I had used as a power supply. I also replaced the stock PS tube with some matched NOS CBS Hytron 5814A (red label). I'm also upgrading to JRiver Media Server 23 from v19. With Fiddelizer optimizing, MSv23 streaming, the new tube stuff amplifying, and the Audeze rendering, I made my desktop audio system sounds great again - heh heh. There's very real new thump in the low end with smoother mids and no apparent loss of high end. It's slightly warmer, sweeter, even less tiring sound. This is especially true when listening while enjoying Wicked Weed's Freak of Nature DIPA, now available in Colo Spgs!
