I prefer the JAN 5654  seems overall to have more sonic synergy & balance to the entire frequency range to my ears. They both sound good though. Mine is paired with the V5i too.

Does anyone know if the jumpers for J1/J1' are placed to enable the EF92 family will the default tubes 6J1/5654 family still drop back in. Or will those have to be removed again to default back ?

    Anyone have a power supply suggestion for this amp?

So after building the cmoy amp & bottlehead Crack OTL I decided finally after a few years I wanted another project to work on. I instantly began google searching speaker kits and stumbled upon the Parts Express Overnight Sensations MT bookshelf speaker kit.  The build didn't seem to difficult...

does anyone know what this amp is worth fully assembled & built without the upgrade kit?

So is there a Mini USB LOD cable, or is the standard cable being used as an import source to a DAC?
