Sounds similar to what they did to the d8kp with the gold edition.
Yeah, sounds like a minimal sonic change, maybe rounding out any treble peak is the best I can gather, maybe more air? Who knows. I think everyone was hoping for a bit better bass extension, I could care less about its soundstage as Im more about imaging precision.
So I guess this has been known for a while, but apparently Rockna showed an upcoming “Wavedream Ultra” model at Munich?
(…speaking of which, I think that used $7K Wavedream Signature /still/ hasn’t sold yet.)

Its in a very nice price bracket
I wonder how it performs vs quicksilver ha and LTA mz2 or zmf pendant
Maybe someone knows
Is the impedance multiplier actually beneficial? What is the advantage of having 10 tubes?
Eskimo’s need heat? Was wondering myself.
Basically you run them in parallel on the output, and it increases the current (and hence power) you can deliver (which is quite low per tube with that particular selection), and you get the added advantage that it drops the output impedance.
One tube in an OTL (assuming cathode follower) is going to be ~100 Ohms output impedance, 5 in parallel will be closer to 20.
We did discuss the amp on here when it was announced, if you like how Jason tunes his amps, it might be worth a look.
Thank you very much
Then its proably a large presentation, neutral warm just slightly dark amp
The tube selection is unusual to say the least, are those matched (?) Lol
Ooh. Now I’m curious.
“Improve linearity and reproduction of the treble”
If they do what they say it will be amazing. I just have 0 trust…
When I owned the MG I thought it would be awesome if they did the same for the Utopia (I’m fairly treble sensitive, especially around 6k).
We’ll soon find out.
That color scheme looks sick!
So tempting!
Damn. That is GORGEOUS. Black and Gold is definitely my jam.
The new Grado statement series GS1000x and 3000x
Never heard any grado but I get the impression that you either love it or hate it. Not sure how much of that is the source gear though, no idea how picky they are…
Basically.
I would love for them to do a full sized headphone one day and keep their design language. or just to get past their dated current designs.
A Decware 300B amp? Not sure if there was mention elsewhere.
Never heard of em till now… actually I think m0n mentioned them before
I think i saw this on my google feed once. There is a guitar amp builder that has the same look. And also this Zemaitis MFG22 Natural – Zemaitis Guitar Company
