What is a "pod" and how does one play them? :D
Most of us never go higher than 8 or 9 on the volume dial, I don't either, not even with the T90. 339 can power 10 T90's but the question is, what are you feeding in to the 339? Over 2PM position: I would be deaf after 30 seconds

:blush: Sorry, Let's say volume dial :D

Yes I agree it should be. I also have Lafigaro 336 and I couldn't listen my t90 over 10 pm position, I'm not a high volume listener guy. I suppose there is a problem on my amp's volume potentiometer. As I said in my previus post, I am hearing very strong noise while I am playing both dials.

By the way, If I position dial to the max, I am hearing distorded sound, but it couldn't blow out my ears :), I haven't ever tried max position on my 336.

Guys, thanks for all your response.

I have Lafigaro 336 and also paired RCA 6sn7. Seems, I need to get an adapter for EF80/86.

I too have both LF339 and DV336se. Those 2 amps have different driver tubes. DV336se uses 6sn7 as drivers. LF339 has 2 variants. The version that I have uses 6SJ7 tubes as drivers. It will also accept RCA 5693 as driver tubes. On top of that it will also use EF80 and EF86 as strapped triodes but you have to use adapters. You will see the adapters from my earlier posts.

So tube configuration wise, DV336se and LF339 aren't exactly the same.

A picture of my 3 amps.

Darkvoice 336se , Feliks Audio Euforia , La Figaro 339.

DV336se and Euforia uses 6sn7 as drivers and 6as7 / 6080 as power tubes. LF339 uses (my version) 6sj7 as drivers and 6as7 / 6080 as power tubes.

LF339 here is pictured with Mullard EF80 with Yuking's adapters and RCA 6as7g.

Notice how low my volume knob is when using the HD800. It's only at 8pm. :)

:metal::grin: nice collection, I assume I have problem on amp's volume potentiometers. Following is my volume position, between 2 - 3 pm.

www.yuking09.com My site has a problem, after the recovery to buy.

Thanks. I'll order the adapters when the site is up again. I'm actually quite keen on a new black upgraded La Figaro 339. What I had is 2nd hand and is the version before the 2013 upgrade. However it still sounds so good. I'm surprise interest in this amp has kind of died off because in my opinion, the sound is amazing.

I'm just using Mullard EF86 and RCA 6as7g and felt no need to roll in my GEC 6as7g or even Bendix 6080wb. Using Yggy as input and HD800 as my headphone, I am just mesmerised by the sound. It has clarity, details galore, wide soundstage, brilliant instruments separation, great bass impact and basically a very involving and musical tone. I just can't stop listening.
