Cayin HA-6A Class A KT88/EL34 Tube Headphone Amplifier
Is that the similar item what we had discussed at the end of the page 17 and 18 on this forum? Relaxarus has got XLR one, but did not like the sound alteration. I have used Ifi 3.5mm one, but my new replaced unit does not have this hiss problem anymore, so do not need it.- kimdeug

Yaa. I am from Auckland. And yes, it is very hard to put the hands on demo units to listen before to buy. That is why it takes a lot of hours of careful research an reviews to make the decision to order some from overseas. Regards, Kim- kimdeug

Yes. I am using all 3 in different rooms. On top of all other amps under my profile. I love Pathos Aurium and it will stay with me forever. Used it a lot with planar headphones before bought Cayin HA-6A. Much better than Monoprice liquid Platinum (sold). Recently start to use a lot XDuoo MT604...- kimdeug

Yes correct. I have 3 (tree) Oppo HA-1. Two are silver and one is black on my desk. My favorite is very obvious Oppo HA-1. But the last 5 years I am more going to the tubes.- kimdeug
