If you plan on getting a Crack, well there's no real competition imo. The HD650 are highly praised and pairs really well with the Crack. (See my sig for info on the setup I run atm).

Short answer is, Yes the Aune can. Nothing compared to a good OTL amp, but with the gain switch at +16db, they Beyers are fine. That was the 2nd stage of my setup (Beyer 880 600ohms + Aune T1). Although, make sure you get a warm tube for your T1 as the unit is borderline bright (depending on...

It looks a lot like a CV4060 (VX6114) Beam Tetrode Power tube.  http://www.tubecollector.org/cv4060.htm See second picture... almost has the part of the faded lettering. If not it, pretty close ;)

Hey there, Any of you guys and gals have tried an E288CC/8223 with the Aune? I know they are subject to a bunch of debates as if they are or not compatible or if they will affect your gear in the long run when subbing for a 6DJ8 family member. Just trying to check with high-rollers if the...

Not too sure about the brightness. Get something warm like the OG. OG + HD600 + 10db = should be pretty sweet. Regarding the adapter, I haven't tested it, but it could create interference. I usually go straight up and do not use a split/adapter. Good quality, good isolation

I'd try +10 before going to +16 and see, for your HD600. I have DT880 600ohms and depending on the tubes, if they are too bright, the +16 affects me; with others, the +16 is fine and/or better...

  Thank you! Yes, so far they sound really great. I feel like it's a waste using them only to be pushed through a DAC and would feel more loved in an amp :D. But I can't complain. I'd love to compare them with other tubes in the same level of quality/sound, but I only have the 6922EH and a...

Here are the pics I've taken. I did my best to capture the codes. And since I'm new here, I can't upload yet. Hoping it helps and the pictures are ok.   http://tinypic.com/r/jv6vyw/5 http://tinypic.com/r/10p55x4/5 http://tinypic.com/r/3005x5j/5 http://tinypic.com/r/2djo5jp/5...

Yes, will do. Camera is charging at the moment. Will try to get pics and post them tonight. I got the tubes from a collector not too far from where I live (Montreal, Canada). The guy has over 10000 tubes and let go of some from time to time. Sadly, they are not NOS like most of his tubes, but...

Thanks Salvatore. I've a feeling that they are older than the 60's. Maybe Early 50's. If they are using the old code format. December 1950?? I've seen old D-GEtter Miniwatts SQ like those: https://www.tubemuseum.org/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=Miniwatt-E188CC-SQ-D-GETTER  (Delta0C)...

I just got a pair of Philips Miniwatt 7308 SQ Holland and I've a hard time identifying the year they were made. Any one of you guys is good with codes? Side of tube: VR2  ΔP0 (orange-ish etched) Top: Looks like 31 J (Written in the same white lettering as the brand) What I can come up...

Been lurking since May. I must say a big thank you to you all for the questions and answers you provided. I've been using my Aune for about 2 weeks now - stock 6922EH - and I must say that it is quite nice. Although, I was wondering if the FiiO e10 could be used paired with the Aune...
