Likely a more futile exercise in passing through meet impressions. Takes time to sort through tubes, headphone pairings, etc. But yes, it's at the tippy top. Eclipses WA33, AIC10, CFA3 hybrid right out. that said, I'm not selling my Primavera just yet. BAH. Soon.- paradoxper

The main barrier to entry is your room. This is a significant cost and consideration. Once complete, however, you will seldom be listening to headphones. Good to see you @Drewligarchy- paradoxper

To simplify things, focus on rolling power tubes. Although you will limit the full scope and some of the fun.

Don't tell him final step. Then you find yourself running quad TM300B on the DAC. He's tried all the other 300B. It's time for TM300B. We'll try stacking other tube DACs to the ceiling later. 🤣- paradoxper

Measurements would be interesting mildly. I am very satisfied with the 1266 fit so can't muster the waste when I know better.- paradoxper

Hope you find the grass is greener. I'm definitely not political at all. Nothing changes the only effect is a bigger number to the bottom line. I am hopeful a purge can birth a new start. Just remember how we managed to get through covid, a real total travesty of government reach.- paradoxper
