Anyone have a wiring diagram for the MMCX connectors?

Power is not everything, you should also consider the output impedance and voltage. The original Magni was bright to me also and the Jot is also a touch on the bright side to me. I would suggest looking at the Ember or Solstice since you already have some 12au7 tubes.
It's nothing compared to the HD 6XX rush though.
I know that this sounds like a stupid question but are the Audeze "LEATHER FREE (BLACK)" pads offered by some vendors the same as the vegan pads which seem to be out of stock?
True! LOL my order for 6XX went through by sheer luck, apparently.
I don't remember now how long it took M1060 to sell out, but it was days. Not minutes like 6XX.
Has anyone tried the xDuoo TA-01 with the M1060? One of the Amazon reviews said it paired will with his LCD-2.2. I've been looking for a high power amp that will work well for my planars (T20-RP MK III, HE-400, and my future M1060) and TA-01 is on Massdrop right now for $120. The specs claim that it will do [COLOR=404040]2100 mW (32-ohm load) which is more powerful on paper than even the[/COLOR] Jotunheim for single ended output. It's also over twice the output power of the Vali 2. I know the M1060 is easy-ish to drive but it also seems to scale well with more power (correct me if I'm wrong). And my T20-RP is pretty hard to drive. My planars also seem to be more amp picky than my dynamics, that's why I'm asking.
I have an original Magni right now and while it has quite a bit of power, but I'm not a fan of the sound sig (light-ish on bass and emphasis on the highs which make the sibilance problems on my HE-400 and T20-RP more noticeable) so I'm thinking that maybe I should avoid Schiit if that's their "house sound" (although the Vaili 2 is mighty tempting). The other advantage of the TA-01 is that it uses one (no need to get matching pairs) [COLOR=404040]12AU7 tubes which is the same as my Bravo Audio Ocean. And since I've already done tube rolling on my Bravo I have extra tubes laying around that I can try. And I like the warmth that tubes afford. [/COLOR]But maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy a NFB-11, Jot, or ifi Micro and call it a day.
[COLOR=404040]The big caveat, however, is that most say the TA-01 isn't a real hybrid because of lack of power going into the tube, making the advantages of a tubes, in this case, negated. But if any of you have had experience with this amp, particularly in relation to M1060/planars I would be supremely grateful.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=404040]Thanks! [/COLOR]
EDIT: Also, on a partially unrelated note, have you guys seen the new black color for the Jotunheim? It looks very interesting!
