I wonder if you can push Cayin above stratus with Jamato's duelund cap roll.

Not sure. Ya I'll look into acme. I keep getting that rec'd over and over.

I just tried some RCAs in 6sn7g7b tall boy position and it was warmer thicker sound but lost a lot of detail vs the sylvania chrome tops. The RCA plate construction seems to resemble the tungsol. Sylvania is definitely my preference. I tried 2 different types of sylvanias and there is an...

Which one you running ?

Im aiming for maximum warmth and tubyness. I just popped this in because my buddy loaned me 3 sets of 6sn7. This is my first roll in the cayin except for my WE clone 300b from cossor (which didn't have nearly this big of an effect vs gold lion as the sylvania did vs tung sol new prod).

I've been comparing my ha300 mk2 to my stratus v4. I liked stratus more until I changed new production tung sol to some sylvania chrome tops in the cayin and wow my mind was blown. Its taken a significant step beyond stratus. So now im looking to roll stratus v4. I have the cheapest psvane 2a3...

What man. Cayin is world class now?? How can the jump in sound quality be this huge ??

Holy crap. I got loaner sylvania 6sn7 from my friend. WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. The amp is way above DNA stratus now? How is this possible ??????????????

Is it possible to order a custom leather free version (or at least a version that uses non-animal derived faux leather including no egg shell protein leather) ? Thanks.

I heard the ac protos amp has a headphone out.

Lol

Even for native english speakers I think reading his reviews is like trying to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphics.

what amp dac ?

Do you guys like susvara for space ambient or is a bit too smoothed over on the edges of the detail? I compared sus 2.5 mm to 1266 TC and found sus a lot more polished/smooth sounding but maybe a bit too much whereas 1266 tc had more deep textural information.

I don't think its anodized. Its just barely brushed metal.

Dave did a nice job on this. Beautiful brushing.
