If only we could get our hands on a bit of human skin...

With all versions of the Anax mod, are the dust covers typically left out? Just wondering.

thanks...

Doesn't that make things even brighter? I have the Anax 2.0 mod in place, and its definitely better than stock, but I would still say it is on the bright side of things (or what I'm used to), hopefully the Valhalla 2 will make it a bit more balanced.

Unless you're running different tubes, the stock valhalla 2 leans towards the bright side.

Relative to stock?  No.  The CSDs shown are uncovered so you can judge stock (covered) versus modded (uncovered).  Of course you could keep the covers on if you like that sound better.  I can't say what is too bright or not bright enough for other people.  I can say I usually have an aversion to anything in front of my drivers whether headphones or speakers.  It's something my ears pick up immediately and annoys me immensely, pulls me right of the music. 

Just do whatever sounds best to you.

Get rid of the foam ring underneath. A few of us don't use it anymore.

Thank you for the tip, seems to work well. Don't think mod version has imaging and transparency as good as stock but it's a good compromise.

Hah!  If it didn't improve over stock you did something wrong.

Sorry for my poor English. It's definitely better than stock, more smooth and relaxing but I think stock is still the best in imaging and transparency.
