Anyway moving on, let's get into TUBES AMP [cheap] For the Dt 880 600!
I like a leaner tube, something Bright and Airy with a tight overall sound. I want just a SMIDGE of those Tubey Mids and Bass
I like the detail and clarity of my Solid State, I'd like not to lose to much of that. But I do want a touch more warmth. With a focus on detail. I'd assume even the most solid state "tubes" are still warmer than a Solid State [due to the nature of an OTL tube]
Is something like a Schiit Valhalla worth getting?
In addition, I remeber why I LOVED the Dt 880 so much, Classical Jazz. I think they might be winners for Reggae/Ska as well... enjoying some 2006 Matisyahu, I can understand the lyrics like no one's buisness! I had that album the YEAR it came out, and 7 years later is's EPIC on my dt 880s
That being said, my testing track has changed again, ditched Metallica as Metal is not needed when there's post rock, ditched Male Vocal DnB [I have Reggae and Dub Step in it's place] also added anoter very delicate mid track,
Esentally, I guess I've got tracks on the Tester that sound good with each can, and each varying sound signiture I like
Needless to say I'm a happy dt 880 owner again [loving jazz and Reggae all over again]
