i m waiting for my alpha dog and have to choose his amp 
 
what do you think about his association with :
 
- Ember project 
- Graham slee novo
- Schiit asgard 
 
Have you any better suggestion in this game of price (about 300 usd) ?
 
Thancks

  Very nice. I'd love to hear your impressions of the WA6-SE pairing with the Alpha Dog versus the Asgard 2 + Uber.
 
Also did you notice any sound changes going from your stock P7 cable to a DHC? I am about to order some cables for my Alpha Dogs mostly for aesthetics and comfort but any sound improvements would be a bonus.

 
Will post up a review of the AD's in both amps and then, not that it is really even a comparison, to the P7 just to have another frame of reference.  Although, the P7's are still some great headphones, they are bass heavy until hooked up to an amp but with the Asgard 2, they become much more precise and refined.  This will be with the stock tubes for a few weeks until I do some more research and figure out what style tubes best match my music style.
 
As for the cable, I bought the cable for the convenience of the 6' cable with a 1/4" built on.  From a sonic standpoint, the only difference would be that it is a higher quality cable than the one that came with the P7's and I don't have to use a 1/4 converter anymore, but nothing I would write home about or even base my decision on.
 
I will give it one thing, the cable is incredibly flexible, does not get coiled up and is very well crafted, from the braiding to the 2.5mm plug inside the phone itself, it fits perfectly.

Yes, we have our repaired risers in and will resume shipping tomorrow, with pretty high volumes. By the end of next week I am hoping our backlog will be down to 2 weeks.

Hope my April 20th order gets shipped soon

Yes, but maroon is in a slight swoon...

I got this little beauty in the mail to use with my Alpha Dog. It sound so wonderful! no clipping or distortion at listening level! sound-stage is even larger! if you can find these little gems anymore, get it because it will probably beat out most of the amp under $300

I have this portable amp as well. a perfect match for the Alpha Dog, plenty of juice as high gain with lot of authority in the bass, and sweet mid.

I have it on low gain, I think high gain make the sound too forward/in your face. High gain also make the amp pick up some EMI/rf since going to low gain, I have not hear anything from my phone.

Asgard 2 drives the AD with some serious bass speed and authority. I am in love
