To those of you worried about buying this for £110 delivered to the UK, don't. The product is very well made and the delivery only took 5 days. I will report on sound when I have listened to it for a while. I hope it sounds as good as it looks!

Congratulations. Today must be darkvoice day because all interests for this manufacturer

Could you also report how this unit plays at quiet volumes. By the way what headphones are you using?

 

[flatpopely]

Yes I'll let you know how it is at low volume. I will be using Grado RS-2s.

Sorry, totally missed your equipment list. You are using some serious source

For some reason your photos aren't coming up.

 

[flatpopely]

Er, what do you want photos of? I can post links to pics of my hi-fi but its a bit Loudspeaker based at the moment!

 

[flatpopely]

Hera are some pics anyway.

Figaro and RS-2s added this weekend.

The LP12 has had some serious work done since the system pic but I guess you can all see that.

I look forward to posting a review and lots of nice pics of my first serious headphone setup.

The DV FIGARO is a great little amp: typical DV sound, plenty of drive and dynamism, with good bass for an amp at this price. I've had mine for about 2 months now, and I love it. Great with the HD650s, but it would be interesting to see how it sounds with GRADOs. The stock 6F3s tubes are good but to get the best out of it try a better pair of tubes. I'm burning in a pair of TELEFUNKEN ECL85s and the FIGARO sounds fantastic.

Has anyone tried tube rolling the FIGARO yet? I found a seller on ebay thats selling matched pair tubes for the FIGARO, so tempting...

I have one coming my way at the end of this week, also my PPAv2 is finished getting built and also shipping at the end of this week. I'm stoked on getting a good comparo of the two...this'll be my first extended experience with a tube product, receivers don't count.

so they're (finally) shipping 110v versions?

No, I'm getting a transformer along with it. I'm unsure if this'll impact the SQ at all, but I'm guessing not.
