So how do you find the V3 compares to yer old V2?

Joke's on you. You accidentally put a wrong tube in a wrong box. Enjoy finding it:smiling_imp:

and now for something completely different Dawn by Sebastian Mullaert & Henrik Frendin (Mullaert is classically trained so it works for me)

I guess adapter trees are now passé and you're all doing big knob-offs:wink::grin:

How can you not like Underdog. And the little Vali3 be giving the Jot a case of knob envy:laughing:

Gabriel Olafs will be releasing an album of orchestral works soonly that's been getting some decent press. Until then here's this

Vali2 is treating my HEXS pretty well. The Vali3 is getting good reviews too, so that'd be worth checking out

Yes to both. 6CG7… I'd reccy a Matsushita. 5760… Tesla 6CC42 Overall, I'd rate the 6CG7 as the best "no adapter required" choice for the Vali2

New MONO album out next month

That was my thought initially, especially since I need to double-dapter to use them. Talking with some other users, and they didn't have the issue (@LobalWarming I think you chimed in bout this once). After reading that Schiit Happens writeup about the Vali3 and seeing how they explained the...

The low noise floor would be probably the biggest selling point for me to upgrade my V2. IIRC, Schiit made some improvements to the internal power supply during the upgrade to the V2+. More improvements carried over to the V3. So apparently it's a bit more than just the wall wart. Some tubes...

Least the Vali doesn't take up much real estate. Heck, there are single tubes bigger than this amp

Does this mean some of your amp stash will be vanishing🧙‍♂️

Jakob Lindhagen - Reaction

I had to look it up and I don't understand why somebody decided to give a pair of speakers a name that sounds like an imaginary drug friend

Using Spinal Tap logic, the 5670W would win cause it's 16 more

So much better than that atrocity Fenestra ME

how worthy are they in the grand scheme?

6ak5? I keep thinking about trying them, but I'm a lazy, lazy man

I was just wondering if anybody had gone down the 6DJ8 road. On this point, does anybody smarter than me know what the max plate voltage for 6dj8s are? From what I remember it was only round 100v in the first place

Not to mention the fact you can get a 512GB microSD card for less than what I paid for a 128GB all them years ago

Nah, just more tubes. A couple (or 3) of those Schiit Voltwankers should do the trick. Probably need to invest in a portable AC unit if you go that route tho…

This makes me sad that my RFT broke. Even sadder when I saw how much the prices have shot up since I bought mine ~2 years ago Regardless, the 12AU7 is a good tube for the Vali - I'd totally recommend getting adapters for them

A taste from the upcoming Matti Bye album …it's classical enough for me:wink:

4 5 stars? That's 20 stars, you should be thrilled:ksc75smile:
