I was also wondering if using the T2 headphone ouput as a line preamplifier was safe and apparently it is, especially considering its gain of x1. https://www.sweetwater.com/insync/headphone-outputs-used-line-outputs-for-line-level-gear/- shamu144

Since this is an hybrid tube amp I agree swapping tubes has not made a big difference, yet the differences remained audible. To my ears at least it seems that the tubes are providing some character compared to pure SS offerings and this is exactly why I like this little amp: reliable like a pure...- shamu144

With a bit of care in the implementation, I find it easy to enjoy this amp. Currently back on the mullard. As a bedside set up, having the 3.5 jacks on the front makes it sooo convenient. For fixed desktop use, I would prefer rca in the back though... The amp seems to be running without gain so...- shamu144
