if your not concerned with portability and want a " black tube amp " the iDSD works quite well with the WOO tube amps...

Can u explain a lil bit about this? I just how BL can sound but it is better if i can add a lil bit of warmth to it. I just bought iCan since it is warmer but the BL can give a better details so far. Any recommendation?

With the iTube between the BL and iCAN SE, the bass is more defined and textured, soundstage has more depth and voices have more body to it.

Some people call this 'tube magick'

Hey folks! Just wanted to share a little eye candy with everyone! Been chugging away with my review, and the Q701 have been helping me with inspiration; The micro iTube2 and Q701 are a match made in heaven! Such a good pairing! Ok, the micro iCAN SE, iDAC, and iPurifier2 lend a generous hand too. But this is the micro iTube2 thread dagnabit! Anyway, enjoy!

Yes, I made an iStack out of black lego!

I made a support bracket for the iPurifier2, held in place by rubber pads on all sides!

90mm Gelid fan that not only cools the stack but is 100% silent!

A nice side view, showing off the adaptor storage!

Just a nice top-down view. Yes, I have 4 rubber o-rings on the volume pot of the micro iCAN SE; 1 round cap and 3 quad. Easier to grip with a finger tip and eliminate my static shooting fingers!

As much as I would love to have a genuine iStack, I would rather spend my money on other great things... like the iGemini!

I have have an iOne.

Will I benefit me to get itube2 if I only use for powered speakers and listen to PoP (no classicals).

Thx.

 

[cheungtsw]

Btw, can someone explain the below 4 terms? Thx.

The iTube2 is a tubed output stage; tube preamp; tube buffer and an impedance-matching device.
