Make sure the A/C cable is plugged into the brick all the way. Mine had a very tight fit and had to push hard to get it plugged in all the way

Thanks for the suggestion. I've re-seated the cord in the brick and the cord in the back of the amp multiple times. No red LED let alone a white one. Maybe I should plug the other end into the wall. Kidding, only kidding. I've plugged it into two different plugs.

I still think I beat the odds on the QA. I'm dying to hear this amp.

Where are you? Maybe someone near you can help.

Shane D, your orange cat looks like my orange cat.
Except for the big white chest. Mine is old and fat, but I still love her.

Considering a LP for Ether 2's. Currently have a Burson Play w/ Vivid and Sparko's opamps.

I already have 6DJ8, 6922 and 7308 as well as 6H30's in my tube stash. As Dr. Cavelli said (not an exact quote)......... 'I know some will try other tubes'

Anyone ventures outside the 'normal' suggested tubes in their LP?

I have read a few positive posts pairing the LP with Ether 2's.
Anyone else want to chime in on this combo?

There are several people who enjoy the the pairing of the LP with the Ether 2. I’ll be the voice of dissension and say I’m not one of them. The amp pairs well with the Verum 1, HEX V2, and Ananda but find that the Ether 2 are almost as slow as the HD650s on it. Seems like it needs a fast solid state or fast tube hybrid to really bring the most out of it.

I really enjoy LP/E2 w/ Siemens NOS (E88CC & CCa). The pairing produces a great, very 3D headstage with excellent bass.

I have mostly Amperex 6DJ8 / 6922 / 7308. I liked the Amperex house sound with other gear I have used. My only experience with Siemens family may have been steel pin 6DJ8 that were a fairly forward,leaning towards bright, presentation. Using 6922 / E88CC Seimens in the LP this may not be the case. I am leaning towards the LP as I get used to the quite neutral sound of the E2's. Great recording sound...........well........GREAT. Not so great recordings are a bit tough to listen to with the E2's . I have only about 3-4 hours on the E2's so I need to give them a lot more time before really having a true opinion of these hp.
