Im feel very in adequate right now. I just got my MG Head in the mail today. Wow! I *LOOKS* great. Feels very solid. I plug it in and try it out with some CD's. Ok, sounds just like my reciver. So I let it warm up on to the radio for 3 hours, and then watch some tv. I put some CDs in and try it out again. Now Im worried, I cant tell the differecnce from my reciver. Now I know something is wrong. I listend to a old tube amp a long time ago with same headphones (hd580's stock) and the difference was night and day between tube and SS. Here, I cant even tell its a tube! What is wrong with me! Even with stock everyth ing I should beable to head the difference between the reciver and the mg head. Not to mention this is a cheap reciver im comaparing it to! Im really pissed off. I dont know what to do! I remember switching from the Senhiser DSP Pro to the reciver and it was much much better. Why isnt the mg head so good? Do I just not have the 'EAR' to be able to tell the difference? Ok here are the stats of my setup if that helps:
Sen 580s stock
Acoustic research interconects gold plated
JVC xv-d723 dvd audio/video player
JVC rx-552v reciver (fairly cheap, dolby pro logic)
One other thing, I hooked my headphones and listend to the radio and cd's with my dads 15 year old SS reciver and it sounds better than the mg head. Im seriously flustered!
EDIT: Im using the OTL plug /w the feed back switch on the downsosition (off). LOL on odd note. If there is no input and the volume os all the way off, i can bearly hear someone talking. What?!
EDIT2: Sorry for being so crazy and incoherent, but I was so damm excited about this AMP and am quite disapointed right now
EDIT3 : It came with a jj ECC 83s and two tubes that say "97=*=10" and "6p14"
