Found this at Walmart in the bananas. Its a banana holder. 
 

 
 
Turns out it makes an awesome headphone holder!
 

 
 
It was only $3.50 something after tax.

Better ground, powerdecoupling caps, and changed tubes to NOS Russian one's (just the last 4 6N1 tubes, haven't changed the front 2 yet). Sounds sensational after a warmup.

You know, some Sovtek EL84's in there with some 6N1P's will make it killer. The rear tubes are not 6N1's. They are EL84's. Or 6N14. The front tubes are 6N1's or 6N3's depending on which version of that amp you got.

Sorry my mistake, the back tubes on mine are 4 replaced 6AQ5 tubes, the front of mine are 6N3's....6N1's were tubes I was looking up on ebay just before lol.

The 6n1's are not compatable with the 6n3. Get some 5670's and enjoy. It will be like a new amp. And you mean 6BQ5.

Nope mine say 6AQ5 which from a quick search is the EL84B's. My amp is not by Music Angel. Yeah I know the 6N1's are not compatible, searching them for something else.

it is a music angel amp. like i said, i have the same amp as you also that i have highly modified. I own 2 of them. 

 
Actually its made by Meng something trying to locate the manufacture brochure I got with this amp, is a OEM supplier that makes the Mengyui and Music Angel amp's, so technically its a Meng amp :).

Sorry to divert this thread back on topic (nice amps, though...

), but roughly how much weight can the stand hold?  Can it hold some of the heavier cans like the LCD-2 or 3?
Thanks!
 
Cheers!
