Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
It seemed like a bit of an ass covering excuse given Grant Fidelitys posts you can find on other forums where they have to defend high failure rates for psvane tubes/capacitors.- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
I'm actually thinking it could have been caused by handling with bare hands? At least thats what Grant Fidelity site says. Either way my Mullard el34 are still going strong.- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
See you all at RMAF! My Elekit is still working, it was just the kt88 that got destroyed. I definitely can't recommend PSVane anymore. Anyway I may pass the 8200 along to fund the purchase of an 8300, as I'm not using headphones (worthy of that level of amping) anymore.- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
I havent cracked the amp open yet to assess its condition, I just swapped in the backup amp for now. I will say the right side tube, the one that blew, has always lit up more dimly than the left side regardless of the set of tubes- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
One of my psvane kt88 just blew up! Well it didn't explode, but it died with a flash and a crackle to the speakers. Unfortunate they were a solid 4/5 for sound but for reliability, this puts them at a 1 or 2/5 for me.- LingLing1337

If you have $10k invested and cant hear the difference between gear, thats a personal problem. I cant imagine what would satisfy you in this argument other than coming to our houses and watching us pass an abx test. Why dont you stop worrying so much, sell your gear, and maybe take some cooking...- LingLing1337

Should I get a AMP/DAC combo (Magi/Modi or O2/Odac) or a single better amp (Asgard 2) for the Sennheiser HD 600?
How is only having one tube to roll a plus? I dont get it. If you want tube sound, you get a fully tubed amp. If you want a tube dac section with a chip amp, you can buy the Aune. if you ever upgrade your dac and use the Aune as an amp, the tube willl be worthless- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
The PSVane EL34 does look very interesting. I've been meaning to try it out. I do have some paypal credit... Maybe we could get a tube swap going also? So once I get the el34 someone can try the kt88 without shelling out $150- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
I doubt youll find an NOS tube with a return policy, youd probably have to sell privately. Theyre definitely worth the risk though IME. PSVane Premium MKII are a good bet for high-end new production tubes. There is also a company out of Ukraine I believe, cant remember the name, making ultra...- LingLing1337

Little dot mkiii is an amp only, nfb and aune are combo doggies. Mkiii amp section will blow away the other two but you'll want to get a dac like a modi later down the line- LingLing1337

You have good enough headphones I would get the best amp you can afford and wait til you have money for a dac later. at least for hd600 I think magni/modi would leave you unsatisfied. Look into something like a little dot mkiii, then a Modi or bifrost later when you have the dough- LingLing1337

Elekit TU-8200 DX Headphone/Speaker Amp Review
Lucid, if you love the tube sound, id suggest grabbing some NOS tubes as well... to me, the PSVane KT88 setup sounds like a good SS amp with an extra drop of honey. That is to say they colored the sound less than other tubes I tried.- LingLing1337

I recently compared dacs costing $35, $175, $500, and $1500. There was a clear difference between all of them I think all of this "all dacs sound the same" talk has only been around a couple years and probably comes frm the younger generation who has less cash to spend and therefore wants to...- LingLing1337
