The Beyer A1 is a fantastic match for the T1.  No joke.

For the HD650, they are stellar, I've received the LCD2 one week ago and I was not disappointed in the HD650 at all compared to the LCD2 with the Soloist.They are less detailed and transparent of course but they are punchy and dynamic and not veiled as some can say :).

 

I'm thinking that my search for an desktop amp is over now with the Soloist. You can drive almost every can on the market with it, for relatively good price and it sounds awesome. You can't go wrong with it.


Another Soloist owner here. Totally agreed, once you go Soloist, you never go back beerchug.gif

+1 For SPL Auditor . Or Lake People G109-S .

I matched my T1 with a Schiit Valhalla (~$350) and a Schiit Bifrost (~450$) and it sounds amazing, really.

My first idea what to order the Lyr, but according to Schiit the Valhalla is a better match.

The DA-160 offers good features and sound for the price, but you can always use the soloist with another Dac. 

Any chance to try that setup?

This was my second option after i ruled out A1 until someone pointed me to ..

 

Woo WA7.

 

Unfortunately my wa7 suffers overheating issue. the local distributor is gonna send me a pair of new tubes. hope that will fix the problem.
