Loxjie P20 Discussion- Starved for information on this thing!
So portable DAC/Amps are ok? If so, I believe these cheap DACs can be very in hand with a 2.5mm to XLR cable. PowerDAC v2 E1DA Headphone Amp PEQ DSP BLE DAC https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000078625548.html E1DA 9038S Gen 3 USB DAC Headphone Amp...- igorpadrao

Loxjie P20 Discussion- Starved for information on this thing!
As far as I know, the Loxjie P20 is a true balanced headphone amplifier. I have a P20 and a Magni Heresy, from Schiit. Two different beasts. I think you will like to compare the P20 to the SP200, specially if you try different tubes.- igorpadrao

Schiit Magni 3+ and Magni Heresy - Impressions Thread
I don't think so. At least at a reasonable price since Schiit chose to use an AC adapter (and not a normal DC power supply).- igorpadrao

Did not know that. So maybe the iFi Zen DAC is also a fully balanced. But is better to double check.- igorpadrao

Loxjie P20 Discussion- Starved for information on this thing!
I believe that the iFi DAC that I mentioned could suffer of the same problem since the balanced output is 4.4mm. Besides the iFi DAC, the other units that I mentioned are full balanced and less expensive than the SU-8. The M300 MkII is about the same price, but you gain Bluetooth input and a...- igorpadrao

I don't know the iBasso DC01 per si, but thinking that it is a portable dac, I believe he is also an amplifier. So, I am told that put an amplified signal in another amplifier degrades the signal very much. So I believe that your best alternatives are: iFi Zen DAC...- igorpadrao

The internal LEDs (the ones below the tubes) are purple (probably one red and another blue). But the front panel is blue (and very annoying).- igorpadrao

Thanks @DBaldock9 I will probably use some tape now and I will try to de-soldering only in a moment post-pandemic (in case I mess it up and need to buy a new amp). I love the faint natural glow of the tubes, but the LED ruins it for me. I will probably use some red film to turn the blue LED...- igorpadrao

I forgot to say that I am running it Single Ended for the moment (the output, I mean. Input side, it has been fed balanced by the SMSL M300), but in the near future I will put some balanced headphones in it to see how it goes. :)- igorpadrao

Loxjie P20 Discussion- Starved for information on this thing!
Thanks PaganDL for the nice words. I know that a some tube amps sound clean like solid states, but I was hoping for a little variety. My ears are very sensitive to high notes and constantly these fequencies tires my ears. I was hoping that some tubey sound could help me in this regard. Maybe I...- igorpadrao

Received my P20 yesterday, I am liking it very much. But it sounds like a solid state. Any tube suggestions for a more relaxing warm sound? I saw that some people changed the power supply. A cheap one like this, but with more power than the original one, would do the job?- igorpadrao
