Probably too early for that. Most Audeze LCD owners probably prefer desktop amps as well. Audeze is not overly practical as portable HP's.![]()
Speaking of desktop amps, I think I'm going to eventually pass my WA7tp on to my girlfriend when she moves in with me(I got her hooked on headphone stuff with that amp and my LCD-Xs..brilliant move if marriage is in the future..). I see you have a WA22? I've been eyeing that one for a while now. What are your impressions of the LCD-X with that amp, and the different tubes you have? I'm reading reviews that it's not as warm and liquid sounding as the WA2(my preference is bassy, smooth, and very 3D), but more detail oriented. I bet those articles are impressions with stock tubes though. Also idk if a WA2 is even an upgrade from a WA7tp with my CBS Hytron ps tubes. I'm looking to go Rega Dac/R for added warmth and musicality on the front end anyway, but I'd like to see what another LCD-X/WA22 owner thinks is best based on their impressions.
