HR Millet Hybrid owner, 1st one made
I liked Tyll so much i just had to have one of his amps.
I wish i could of got it new from you guys, but being a broke SOB sucks ass.
I cant wait till it arrives and get to hear it against my DV, im wondering what to expect =)
Im actually getting one of the first ones made, if not the first. Its a piece of history...from what i understand the the writing on the face plate is mis printed =)

very much...just got her plugged in and popped in my one of my favorite CDs, House of the Holy (Zepplin)
Sounds nice so far...alittle smaller soundstage it seems smaller....
Im using the 12FK6 tubes and they really bring a nice brightness to the 650s. No more bloated bass THANK GOD....
Tyll chime in and let me know what the differences are.

Its lush, alot more smooth then i thought.
I didnt want to lose all the warmth of a tube but wanted to tighten up the bass. The amp is really sounds excellent with guitar and vocals. Bass is tight, but hardly a thump to it...granted im using medium gain with the volume turned up a tad more...i havent tried the high yet...was giving it a few to warm up the tubes.
Mids seems much more apparent, highs seem more detailed bass seems to lessen compared to my DV 336i. Its almost alittle muddy...bass seems not as deep tone.

I know you've just started listening, but which amp does your gut say you prefer: the HR hybrid or the DV 3361? Are you a fan of the HR crossfeed?
