Like winning the lottery. I’ll never get tired of that lovely tube glow! First five minutes into listening and it’s already freaking amazeballs. @UntilThen I completely understand now why this is an amp you would hold onto.

Should work ok with 6as7 for sure. I think that some recommended 7236 came when some might have experienced clipping at higher volumes. Others just like the sound better. lol. But these were just the notes I had when I was looking to get 600ohm headphones. Let us know how you make out!

The only thing I would add here that may or may not be useful is that I’ve heard DV users who did run 600ohm headphones got better results using them with a 7236 power tube. Might have a bit more juice that could be more optimal for them. I personally don’t know, and never went down that rabbit...

The only person I know of that has owned a T1 before (not sure about which gen) is @SHIMACM who liked it on the Darkvoice, but IIRC he had the 600 ohm version. He hasn't been around so not sure if he will chime in, but you can search for his posts as I recall we had talked about it before here.

I actually had a similar issue with the AC branded 3.5mm connectors on my Focals, and boy, did it kick my OCD into overdrive. They should definitely keep track of these or put a disclaimer that these particular connectors sometimes don't fit flush all the way on certain headphones. However...

*Sold on another forum. For sale is a Schiit Mjolnir 2. I purchased used at another marketplace forum. Comes with: 1 pair of the WE396a (broken tips but does not affect functionality, still works and sounds great). 1 pair of 6N3P-E NOS tubes (unused) 4 tube adapters (5670/2C51 to 6DJ8/6922)...

Have you also tried reaching out to someone at Arctic Cables for a recommendation? They are very responsive and may or may not be able to give you some suggestions based on your gear and budget. They are very helpful over there.

Excellent buyer! Great communication and prompt payment. Would do business with anytime. Pleasure to deal with and a top notch head-fier! Thank you!

I was just thinking the same thing. The Koetsus have such an incredible design aesthetic, it's a work of art to me. I absolutely love their look.

The Clearaudio Goldfinger looks the most appropriate and striking. I can see 007's Goldfinger having this on his TT.

Dude, are you selling yours? LOL. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650071735-kenwood-kd-500infinity-black-widow-turntable/ I was just perusing the turntable ads this morning and saw this right before reading your post. Man, y'all are high rollers - serious TT peeps! I know this is...

So basically, you're saying that size matters?

LOL. EWR's new Terminal A was a welcome upgrade to that place. Will still empty your wallet however...

One of the best things about the GE 5670 is that they are a really nice bang-for-the buck value. I've seen cases where some people actually preferred the GE to the 396A, and of course vice versa. Probably depends on your gear. For the amps I have compared the two in, I generally find the GE...

He simply could just be phasing out those versions of the 16/45 and just using what inventory he has left and maybe just focus on the SE moving forward. If he has to spend the same amount of time to make any of those versions, I would definitely focus on the model that makes more money for sure.
