Sure. That's my DV336se - modified of course. Will drive ANY headphones. That's kept under the desk though.

On the desk I like a clean desk policy. Notice the absence of tubes? Btw that's my best headphone - Axis Voicebox S.

Where are you @HeatFan12 ? Don't take another 8 years hiatus. :wink:

Tq tq. I got it custom made to play MS Flight Simulator 2020 but I keep crashing those planes ! I think I need proper yoke or controllers and a flight stewardess.

Well, it's pretty obvious from the outside looking in. No stewardess, no 'beverage' service. No wonder you keep crashing. :laughing::laughing:

It isn't that they aren't compatible, it might be an adapter issue so keep an open mind if you ever wanted to try it out one day. We don't want to make conclusions with one test sample, you know?


I am waiting on my adapter to get re-wired and I will try this out again one day. I will let you know when I find the cause and how to fix it.

I have a pair of CV4079's incoming from Langrex. Should be here about any day now (USPS willing). I'll report back once they arrive.

Ok so I ordered a bunch of tubes and a couple of adapters. I blame all of you.

I don't know what airline that is, but I'm booking my next ticket on it even if I'm not going anywhere they fly. :joy:

The accepted practice is to blame @JKDJedi . Even if he's not guilty now, there's a high probability he will be at some point in the future. The rest of us are always innocent and have the test results to prove it. :grin::laughing:

So here's what I'll be working with:

I already had an RCA JAN 6AS7G, it's the only tube compatible with that back socket I have (other than the stock POS).
I also had a made in Russia Tung-Sol 6SN7GTB (which after perusing this thread further is kind of a POS itself), the stock POS tube, and a Shuguang Treasure.
I ordered a 6SN7 --> Dual 6J5 adapter from @Deyan

And then the following eBay spree:
- Black-plate RCA 6SN7GTB (to see how it plays with the RCA already in my system)
- A vintage Tung-Sol 6SN7GTB (American made)
- A pair of black RCA 6J5s
- A mismatched couple of Silvertone 6J5s - one G, one GTG
- GSN7-->GF8G adapter
- NOS RCB 6F8G
- NOS Raytheon 6F8G

That's not including the solid aluminum knob and stepped attenuator I was convinced to order (and look forward to getting my hands on).

I think at this point I'm pretty solid on things to try out on the 6SN7 socket. If I could only find some decent options for the 6AS7 to roll with the RCA, but everything I've read here points me away from the 5998As and I'm not really sure if $110 is a good price for a NOS Mullard 6080 with Philips branding. Anyone up for selling me a nice 6AS7/6080/5998 they consider a good option?

@bcowen I'ma need to see those test results.
