Let me start by saying I love the detail my Shure 940s bring and not looking to change cans. BUT, they can tend to be a little clinical and lack engagement.
So, I was thinking... If I paired them up with a little Dot 1+ or Mk II, I could get the best of both worlds. The warmth of the tubes without losing all of the detail. It might take a little Tube rolling (which would be fun in itself) but I am hoping I can add in the warmth that the tubes bring to the Shure 940s.
Of course I am new to the whole Tube thing. Currently driving the headphones out of an older Integrated. The integrated is much much better than directly to a portable (iPhone or the like), but not there yet.
Other Components -
- Apple TV
- Schiit Modi 2
- Myryad Intgrated
- Quad 22L Speakers (if you care)
Thanks for your thoughts
