    2014 tube amp rankings

    I remember back in the day skylab did a really good ranking of all tube/hybrid amp.  Unfortunately that threads have been closed.  So I want to do another list for people who doing research could look into it.  I am currently myself looking for a tube amp.  It would be nice if it was integrated...

    Hello everyone: I currently have a Sennheiser HD800 associated with a Woo Audio 2 OTL.The set is simply fantastic. Now I have bought a Stax SR-009 and look for a good amplifier for them - I think  Woo Audio GES or Liquid Ligtning are my preferred candidates- In reference of Sennheiser...

    HD800 + $1,000-$2,500 Amp = Sonic Bliss?

    Hi,   I had an earlier post last week where I was asking about tube amps for an HD800.  But I have been thinking a bit more broadly about it and considering also solid state or hybrid amplifiers as well. The thought for a tube amp was because so many experienced HD800 users preferred them, and...

    Apex Peak/Volcano vs. Zana Deux

    Does anyone have experience comparing these two amps head to head? I'm considering pairing one of these amps with Sennheiser HD800 headphones.I would appreciate any feedback you can provide.

    The absolute BEST amp for the LCD-3 (only vote if you have heard the mjolnir and at least one other amp, preferably most on the list)

    Set on getting LCD3s, preferred its sound to the hifimans in general by a wide margin. Heard LCD3s with the mjolnir and gungnir and loved it. But I have only heard the LCD3s with the mjolnir amp, are there other amps that are better than the mjolnir FOR THE LCD3s in your opinion? Only vote if...

    SPL Auditor or Musical Fidelity M1HPA for T1?

    I currently have the Luxman P-200 and looking for a replacement amp to drive my Beyerdynamic T1.  I don't think the P-200 has enough power.    I'm looking for a solid state amp and narrowed it down to two choices: SPL Auditor or Musical Fidelity M1HPA.  The Auditor is $100 more than the...

    T1: anything better than WA2?

    As per title, I'm thinking of a new amp to replace my WA3. It will drive a T1 (soon), DT880@600ohm, HD650 and maybe HD800. Budget is about £1000, slightly more than 1500 USD. My source is a Havana with Bendix 6385. I listen mainly to classical, with a 15% of jazz. The amp must good enough...

    Apex Peak/Volcano Review

      A wise man once told me, “Ignorance is bliss”.  Pausing for a moment, he then corrected himself, “Actually, ignorance was bliss”.  Never were truer words spoken with my return to Head-Fi after having been “blissful” these past three years.  Having worked through a bit of gear, which I will...

    Apex Peak/Volcano impressions

    Let me start by saying that this was my first hybrid amp that I've spent any time with but I was able to squeeze into the loaner program to grab some listening time with my gear (Thanks Todd!).   I used a variety of tracks ranging from 96/24 FLAC all the way down to Apple 256. I used both...

    Apex Peak with Volcano power supply

    This is my first review on Head-Fi.  In this review, I will do my best to describe what we all know to be an extremely subjective experience. Before I review the Apex Peak, I think it's important to talk about my experience with Todd the Vinyl Junkie.  I first met Todd when he was working at...

    Violectric V200 Versus Apex Peak/Volcano

    Wondering if anyone has compared the two side by side. I've been using the V200 for almost a year now with the V800 for a dac and the LCD-3 headphones. I am curious if the Apex Peak/Volcano would be a significant upgrade. Thoughts? Thanks
