IMHO it's worth it.

I got my Spitfire today. Wow, it is nice. I couldn't resist taking a picture.

By the way, the Firestone North American distributor finally has their website up:

Shelly...

That is a great pic! Looks very clean (my desktop is littered with wires). How does it sound? I'm thinking of buying a similar set-up for my girl. I think she would enjoy the "cuteness" of the setup (and hopefully the sound).

Nice one Shelly!!

Where did you get the headphone stand?

Interesting maths paper on the screen, too!

 

[lordearl]

groups and rings?

 

[shellylh]

Technically it's a topology paper but it uses a lot of groups and rings.

The headphone stand is just a good old fashioned Bed Bath and Beyond banana holder with the hook removed and some foam around the end (held on with a velcro strap)... very low budget but it works great (and I like the wood).

I'm hoping to pick up some samples to roll into my "upcoming" Fubar III. I've read a good deal about the 2107, which seems like exactly what I want (dark and airy). The only problem is TI shows about 8 models of 2107, in DIP and SOIC. Which do I want?

For a few months I was running a usb dac into my firestone little country, then into my cans and this worked fine.

Now I've upgraded to using Cambridge Azur 640C into the Corda Cross-1, then into the firestone little country and have blown two tubes in two days.

Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?

 

[milkpowder]

Is it the same tube that blows each time?

 

[lordearl]

yeah, the 12AU7...strange....

 

[Skylab]

That has got to be some cable problem.

 

[milkpowder]

Or might it be the tube is not biased properly? That might have a detrimental effect on tube life if the bias is wildly off.

Does someone know how Little Country pairs with Allessandro MS-Pro or Darths? Because I cannot find a lot of information about this tube amp

 

[Lamprologus]

Does anyone know why the violet version of the Cute beyond says Violet on the front plate? Does the red, blue and grey versions have the colour stated as well?
