One question, I have looked at pictures of other people's Vali2s and it looks like they have an LED that illuminates the tube itself, like the Aune T1 does. With mine, the front light comes on which provides a little light through the holes in the top of the unit, but there doesn't seem to be a dedicated tube light. Not that I care particularly, I find the tube light on my Aune T1 distracting and actually painted it red, but the e88cc I'm using with the Vali2 doesn't light up at all, except two tiny dots of red light. I had expected that, seeing that the tube isn't just a buffer on the Schiit it would light up somewhat more. Meanwhile I've been using this for 12 days now and I couldn't be happier with the sound, really brings out details tha the Aune amp doesn't.
