… just breaking in on CD replay … sneak listens are to be expected …
Wow only 2 ohms, the cable would have more resistance, that’s very low. I’ve never listened to them.Perhaps I'll try the LCD-R headphone as I had no issue with "Chameleon" driving the LCD-R. But then the LCD-R is rated at 2 ohms!
There's only 67 of the LCD-R's out in the wild. They were a very limited run by Audeze. I'm actually the 3rd owner of these LCD-R's. Bought them from @number1sixerfan. They were built to use the Schiit Jot-A amplifier. I've found that my Cavalli - LAu, Wells Audio - Enigma, McChanson - "Chameleon", Auris Audio - Nirvana and Schiit - Ragnarok v1 will drive them with no issues. I'll make sure I have an extra fuse before I try them on Super SilkE UltimatE. Picture of LCD-R with Bifrost 2 and Jot-A.Wow only 2 ohms, the cable would have more resistance, that’s very low.

Using the Shuguang 6C8P single triode driver tubes now. But I will roll tubes much slower than Matt!
The restriction to the essential shows the master.

The GEC KT77 were bought in August of 2021 to be used with "Chameleon".
That is scratching the surface. Ask @ARCXENOS how much he would have spend in 2 years time.
I have lost count of how much I have spent on NOS tubes but it's a good collection. Took me about 2 years to do that.
I've been using Tung Sol 6SU7gty, Psvane KT88 Tii with Sittard GZ34 in Odyssey for the last few days. The KT88 and GZ34 has been the best purchase for me. I use them a lot without worrying about burning up NOS tubes and they sound good.
I wonder what happen to @NEXTLEVEL5. He was very keen on a McChanson amp.
Agreed on the GZ34. One of the best purchases of a NOS tube. They love to be run and never complain!
