Can you tell us what we must do to try this?
Need a adapter i suppose?
The 6.5 ampere regulate ist clear.

Adapters for EL11 Valvo's you may already have? However EL39 adapters are not available through ebay but I believe Deyan can make them if required. Adapters for EL38 were and probably still are available on ebay or again Deyan. The black mesh plate Valvo EL11's date back to 1939/early 40's and are super rare. Regular Valvo EL11's are also very good but not quite up to the old mesh plate version.

Hi I bought 7236 to kt 88 converters, but at times I see people use 4 Gold Lions, in the front too. Is there a special 6sn7 to kt 88 converter?

With my Elise I can use the same converters in all sockets. I believe same is true for Euforia.

Looks so beautiful. What are these tubes?

The previous couple of pages describe briefly the sonic qualities and the tubes are Valvo EL11 black glass, mesh plate and Dario EL38’s.

Hey guys,
I've always been an early adaptor on Feliks.
I own #27 Elise and
#7 Euphoria.

I am really interested in the Envy. As I run two systems, one amp must go.
What do you think is a fair price (USD) for these amps. They are both in excellent condition. I take very good care of my gear.

These are the 1st edition of both models, as per the serial # .

Thanks in advance.

I am looking for a warm, rich somewhat gooey amp to pair with hd800S. Would the euforia or AE be a good choice? Right now running elekit tu8600S.

AE is great with HD800S for me. This is regardless of tube roll.

If I may ask what other amps did you compare it to ?

 

[incredulousity]

I have HA-2SF, Phonitor X, GSX Mini, and Euforia AE. It sounds great with all of them. I feel that these phones always need EQ, regardless of the amp, but other than that, they are outstanding.

Richest gooey amp might be the Elise in this case but Euforia AE is close. Stay away from the OG Euforia if you want rich warm and gooey

HD800S goes great with the amps suggested above. Whichever amp you go for, I think that the installation of British tubes will take you to your “warm, rich and gooyey sound” you are after.

In that case the Elise is the best fit.
Euforia AE is less warm and rich but more detailed.
Regular Euforia is even more neutral than the AE.

Regular Euforia is solid state technicalities with some tube musicality.

Hello,
I understand what you mean about using the in-house tubes.
If you are using them, replace them with warmer and richer tubes.
Then you do not need an Eq.
The 6AS7G tubes mask the sound and the Ps vane are neutral but cold and a bit unmusical.
It is always a bit difficult to give a recommendation because of the subjectivity of each individual.
And a question of money in the end what is willing to spend.

Following this discussion, I looked through my tube collection, and found a pair of tubes I used with Elise, but have not tried since. Put them in and was very pleasantly surpriesed. Far better than the stock 6as7's that I no longer use at all. With the AE amp and stock driver tubes the Thompson CF 6080WA tubes really warm the amp up. If you have these give them a try. The Thompson's were made in France, and I don't know the availability now. I had one of the early Elise's and remember that the 6080 tube was better, and the WA version preferred.
