Just want to say that this amp is now my personal benchmark for any amps out there below 1500$.

Truly phenomenal performance in a perfect form factor, with flexibility with pairing.

Sounds sublime with the Utopia - pairs better than BHA-1.

The Dac is good, but definitely the sky is the limit based on budget.

Extremely exciting

From what I hear, North American launch is this summer.

Absolutely. The AT-BHA100 sounds better than Chord TT2 AMP which is too analytical and non-engaging in my opinion. The AT-BHA100 adds a nice touch of tubes, driving my CANs in my stable to maximum performance.

Does it have enough juice to power your Susvara and HE6?? I can't find any output figures

How well sound the Empyreans?

 

[Fatdoi]

Around 250mw @300ohm balanced... I don't think it can power ZMF properly

Having used the BHA100 for awhile now I can safely say that it cant power Susvara if its already struggling to power HE5se. Whats nice about the BHA100 is that you can daisy chain via rca to a powerful solid state amp and keep the colouring for your planars.

Yes, they pair up extremely well! Much better than straight out of the TT2.

No sadly.

This amp won’t be a great pairing with most planars unless super efficient (sounds incredible with LCD-X 2021)

Thanks, I'll look for another amp.....

How does it sound with the HD800?

 

[XLR2XLR]

It's coming

 

[llysender]

Nice do let it run in for about 70hrs. Well listening to how the colouring change drastically is fun as well but I rec at lest 10hr of burn in before starting to listen as right off the bat its quite bright and shill.

Thanks for the advice! It's going to be a new experience for me – I've never had tube amps before.

At last it has arrived. FedEx made me nervous yesterday when they marked its status as delivered, but I found nothing on my porch. I had already contacted Drop about the missing package; luckily, it was delivered today.
It sounds great right out of the box. I started a listening session with the Eudeze LCD-XC, and to my ears, it does not sounds bright. I'm very pleased with its balanced and natural sound signature. I wonder how it changes after the burn-in hours.
