If this is put into production I believe it will be any color you want as long as it's black!  You don't want Red anyways with a Red Ferrari lurking about!

Major Sound improvement with this tweak............

My advice is to just leave the JJ's in.  I know a few who have bought some $$ but the point of this amp is the tubes aren't supposed to have that great an effect on sound.

  Liquid Crimson review

Do you have any experience with the Liquid Fire?  In a way that you could compare the sound of the Fire to the Crimson?
I own a Liquid Fire.  Comparisons to its sound would be something I could relate to.
What I love most about the Liquid Fire is its set-back and enveloping headstage.  It hugs me.  It hugs my head as I listen.  Makes me wonder how much of that is in the Crimson.  My impressions though from reviews so far is that the Crimson is more forward (less set-back).

I do not have enough time with the Fire to give a fair comparison. I did feel that the Crimson had that enveloping experience. I was brought into the music rather than watching the music. It was very nice.

I own a LF and had the prototype for the Crimson at home for a few weeks.  I would say the Crimson is a better amp but now worth selling the LF for if you own it.  The Liquid Gold on the other hand is a huge step up but also more $$

Sitting in the dark listening to "All Things Must Pass" 24/96 download from the first issue.  Speechless and happy.  45 years later this is still fabulous.

Any more feedback from other liquid fire owners out there? Im curious to hear how you feel about your (almost) 5 year old amp and how you think it compares with the more modern amps out there.

I have mine loaded with the philips SQ tubes and am very content with the sound signature. It sounds so smoooth! I have been running a pair of GS1ke's and lcd 2.2's through it, but a surprise hit I've just found is a set of fidelio x2's. These headphones can sound a bit shrill at the high end, but with the liquid fire the sound is rounded out nicely, eliminating the 'jaggy' treble.

Result - Awesome bass, warm mids, liquid noise!! I honestly dont think a set of <£200 cans have ever sounded so good!! Some awesome synergy going on here!
