No necesitá usarlo il jot in bilanciato... Scusí per la mia italiano.
Hope to heck I said you don’t have to use jot balanced, but the rust is so thick on mt italian, I might have told him to run over it with his car...

Don't worry :) your italian is better than my english.
I think that if you buy a balanced amp you buy it to use the balanced out that is more powerful.. I tried a pair of modded beyer. With the balanced out they shined, one of the best bass i have ever heard, with single ended they sounded with half the musicality. Tried with the internal dac and the mojo i had back then

The mimby uses the same multibit dac as the lyr and bifrost.

But the Mimby implementation is different and sounds better according to people whose ears I trust. Also, the 16 bit multibit DACs sound crappy cold, sound pretty good after being on for an hour, and sound their best after being on for a few hours.

Do the LISST tubes give a blacker background compared to the normal tubes?

I didn’t listen too long with it tonight, but it was a bit better from what I remember, I’ll give it some more play time this weekend when I have time n see what I think overall...granted the things brand new and probably needs to run for a while, I’ll throw it in and run the amp non stop for a day n see if the sq is on par with a good tube...it came out relitively quickly tonight as it just didn’t have anything on the tubes I have.

People are just trying to save you money from buying escentially a more limited version of what you already have...there’s rlly no argument needed. The mimby is the same dac with more features and better implementation. No ones saying the lyr3’s dac sucks, but yours is simply better...and the 200$ you save can buy you something nice.

Anyone try the Lyr3 with Audeze LCD2C or the Aeon Flow Open/Closed?

Thanks

Schiit finally got the lisst tube to me today, and it’s actually not bad from early impressions. I definately don’t like it as much as my top tubes, but it has really good extension and solid bass impact(more so then any of my tubes). But it’s just lacking something that I can’t put my finger on just yet. I don’t hate it, but I’m not In love with it like a few tubes I have. Either way, something to experiment with. It’s nice that this amp is so versatile. Iv still yet to use a tube that I just couldn’t stand...some I just prefer more then others.

It's missing soul (with due credit to ProfFalkin for his expertly coined phrase on that a while back). :slight_smile:

I just got a pair of Aeon Closed. Only a brief listen last night which was very encouraging. More later after I get everything (including my ears) all settled in.

I have the LISST's for my MJ2 and all of the previous comments vs tubes apply to it as well.

People covered this a while back in the thread.

I appreciate your honesty, but looking through roughly 400 messages is very time consuming and not too productive.
I searched, found nothing, so I ask.
Thanks

It is time consuming to make double post as well. Found this in 2 seconds - Post # 170

I have yet to read about a pairing, that did not go well with Lyr 3. That goes for tubes and headphones. Lyr 3 is a really good amp, and a different tube can fine tune it, to work with any headphones.

Thanks for the vote of confidence in my italian! Since Lyr 3 has much more power, single-ended, it would be interesting to see if those modded beyers are as good!

I am sure the bayers will sound amazing on the Lyr 3.

Any feedback on the Abyss and the Lyr 3, looking forward to reading your thoughts!
