Thank you Justin!sure will. Might need to buy from amazon if done find at home depot. 3A SB
I just replaced my kr audio kt88s with a fresh pair and I’m falling in love with this amp all over again! Noise floor went back down to 0.
Earlier posts here have me wondering about a pre amp… would it be worth it to try to add a feliks elise to the chain?
I love how it seems everyone has their own favorite complements of tubes in these amps - really shows their versatility
Thanks for the input! I was kind of thinking the same, but alas, the Elise is what I have on hand. I've looked at the booster box and might have to add it to the christmas list!
Agreed.Plus it’s great to have a reference SS on hand
Originally posted this on the Atrium thread but thought I’d share here as well.
Let me caveat this this by saying my Kenzie OG 2 is the only tube amp I ever heard. Nevertheless, it never ceases to amaze me paired with the OG Auteur. Sublime is a most apt word to describe it. It’s the most revelatory purchase I’ve made in this hobby. Watched Resolve’s review of the OG Kenzie again last night and he nailed the sound characteristics of the amp perfectly. Would love to hear some of Justin’s higher end amps. Atrium or Caldera is what I’m hoping to purchase next for a headphone. We’ll see if I can hold out till CJ NYC so I can demo them but I know myself well enough to say that I may end up making the purchase during ZMF’s November sale.
Congrats on your purchase and welcome to the club! Still love my Kenzie 2 and Mojo 2 as the Dac feeding it. While I realize there are higher end amps and Dacs, the signature of the two mesh so well together. Elevates everything I listen to on that chain whether it’s Atrium or even an IEM like Spartacus. I’m so happy I explored this facet of the hobby. Music is such an integral part of my life and Kenzie elegantly enhances the listening experience every time. Hoping you‘ll love Kenzie 2 as much as I do.i just purchased the OG 2 yesterday and I'll be receiving the amp in about four weeks or so. Reviews like the above are killlinngggg meeeeeeeeeeeee with anticipation.

I am hoping so as well. I've heard nothing but positive things about the Kenzie (the Encore version), even at super best audio friends, and they are a picky bunch. They certainly prefer it over top tier amps like the Euforia, so that's really saying something. People mention it in the same breath as the Eddie Current Aficionado which is legendary. I have the OG Auteur as well, I actually repurchased it after I didn't like the Atrium that much. The OG just has this tone that's perfect, especially for female vocals. My DAC is the Gustard R26 and that is pretty darn neutral so I'm hoping it pairs well with the Kenzie!
