Regardless, I use my tube amp with my HD800s as the overall sound is more organic and less analytical (with treble that is a bit further pushed back...for the HD800s a good thing). I use my Concerto primarily for my D7000s and LCD-2s. A great combination!


 

I'm seriously considering building a B22 for my D7000s now!  I'd like to build a 4-channel balanced B22, with the option for a single-ended headphone  and functionality for use as a pre-amp.  I also think that two Sigma22s will fit the bill just fine, along with an Epsilon22 backplane.

If you really end up with a 4-ch B22    PLEASE    keep the WA22 at least for the time it takes to write a short comparision

I can never give up my WA22!  It's my first real amplifier and I have/had so much fun tube rolling.  I think everyone should have at least one tube amp and one solid-state amp.  I wouldn't be surprised if I was 50 years old and still had my WA22.

 

BTW, it'll be a long comparison.

How's this, I prefer SS with the LCD-2s.

 

But if you do pick up the T1s...tubes is where its at.

Hey Dude, that's what I stopped by now and really happy to have them with my music listening.

 

Look forward for your "Long comparison".
