Well, I got some Bugel Boys coming in the mail for this amp. I liked how they sound in my X-CAN V8, so they should be really good in this amp.

…specifics?… (a former cap-mod / external LPS LP owner)

Well the tubes haven't gotten here yet but should be here in a few days. I'm hoping they'll make the amp sound even warmer.

In the X-CAN the sound became a lot warmer/smoother with fuller bass. Treble was very smooth and natural sounding.

Just rolled a pair of Amperex Bugle Boy D-Getter ECC88s (not sure of production year) and I love the result. Very warm, liquidy, smooth signature. Plus, it's cool to have tubes made 60 years ago.

Good to hear! The Bugle Boys are special tubes, no doubt about that.

Hey guys,

Just ordered one of these for my he6se. I'm a bass head so looking for something warm without sacrificing clarity or highs. Any recs? Anyone have this combo?

Now that a Liquid Platinum is back in my headphone amplifier stable and ‘on active duty’, I really enjoy the sound via Valvo E88CCs (Heerlen / Holland build: 1962). Note: this time, no capacitor modification, no external linear power supply (yet on the latter).

I bought one used and been enjoying it with my He6SE v2. Plenty of power to drive them, does make them sound fuller than my SA-1 amp.

I am also considering a return to LP land. It is SO damn cheap right now...

One of the few items that I have sold that I do kinda miss.

Again, I do feel that there is more useful / useable volume knob range with LP ….
EDIT: Right now, I am listening via ZMF Eikon (cocobolo), cable is plugged into front XLR socket, LP has Valvo E88CC tubes. Comfortable volume at ‘eleven o’clock’, rock-out volume at ‘noon’.

If you like, I got a cap modded schiit mj2 with your name on it. It's like a LP on steroids. I got some holy grail 12at7 tubes too to go along with it. Pm me if interested.

I think your amp would be a LOT more than $288.00.
