I recently received my custom Dynahi and Beta22 amps which were 5 months delayed due to the pandemic (in which time, I bought the Pathos InPol).

Initial impressions (PC > UltraRendu > Holo Audio May > amps via XLR)

Beta22: Fairly laid back across the spectrum with superb delivery, power and oodles of bass

Dynahi: More fun characteristic (compared to the Beta22) with slightly less bass but more forward mids and improved sparkle at the top end

InPol Ear: I must admit I have been listening to the InPol in a more demure manner (around 100-110 volume). Not until I've had the Beta22/Dynahi that I cranked up the volume to (130-140) which is where the fun starts. The InPol is like the Beta22 + Dynahi combined and then some. Presentation is more layered (as mentioned before) without losing details whilst also presenting more micro details information than the other 2 amps.

I really should stop buying amps lol

Nice Stable of Amps! And that looks like a Studio Six on the right. Sounds like you discovered "Concert Volume" on the InPol. The 1/2 db volume steps really are a great feature.

BTW for fun I tried the Final A8000 IEM (102db) on the InPol and found it to be a very quiet amp

The volume control on the InPol is stellar.

Yes, that's the Studio Six. I've sold my Phonitor X, Pathos Aurium and ECP Audio Ravenwood DSHA-3F. My La Figaro 339 is currently with my dad on his vinyl setup. So yeah, I really should stop but curiosity gets the better of me hahaha

Or not Have you heard the Trafomatic Head 2? I had the Inpol Ear (and I loved it), but I have to say I am most impressed with the Head 2.

Tambaqui!
How are you liking it so far?
Trial or did you already purchase?
How was you (purchase) experience?

I'd love to hear your impressions of the Tambaqui's performance.

Hey chaZZZy007, the Tambaqui was initially supposed to be a lockdown loaner, but after I returned it, I missed it's sound. It didn't help that @canfabulous was poisoning me every step of the way.
So, after re-mortgaging my house, I got myself a unit, which my wife would probably kill me if she found out how much it cost

Anyhoo, impressions can be found on the Mola Mola Tambaqui thread but what I loved about it above the May is the way it renders and portrays drums and strings in the upper registers especially cymbals and guitar plucks.

Which versions of the B22 and Dynahi did you go with out of curiosity?

 

[sahmen]

Hahaha carboncopy, I have been reading your praises on the Trafomatic and I have been researc..........No, I must stop *ohmmmmm, ohmmmmm*

Uhhmm, I have also spotted the Holy Mola... errr the Tambaqui in your setup, but I must resist, you know, show some discipline and restraint.. No really

Very cool. I am familiar with them all.

There is a hybrid CFA3 on the horizon to also consider.

This is me all the time trying to resist buying something I really don't need but want to listen too, haha !!

It feels like we are all catching Tambaqui fever!

TBH I have been thinking about upgrading my DAC, but the upgraded Modwright Oppo 205 performs so well and has just the right amount of richness to make it a very good match to the neutral Pathos.

But still, that Tambaqui looks so bee-yoo-tee-full!

Waiting for the Hydra.Hub to complete the stack. Posting a pic to make it "official".
DSD512 are just for kicks.

Mickey are you still enjoying your Audiobyte DAC w/ the InPol? Curious if it came w/ a remote?
