Yea i have played around with the output resistance. I find that the overal tonaility becomes slightly darker but it also sounds less dynamic. The AD900X is a 38ohm phone so med res is nearly the same (32ohm). From what i have read that really hurts dampining factor.
I just found foobar and the WASAPI plugin so now I can control the source vol without worrying about sq degrading. Currently have my Hifimediy Sabre at around 30% for comfortable listening. Would like a little more bass through...
I know the JJ E88CC probably need a bit more time to "burn in" ( got about 30hrs on it so far ) but I dont think the low end will come in much more then it has. Could be wrong though.
Which 12AU7 would you reccomend that keeps the mids and highs of the E88CC but has a bit more low end impact?
I have about 25 tubes and and I really like about 20 of them, but right now the 6N6P is my favorite.
You can try to find a Voskhod 6n23p ("rocket logo",72-75). It has really amazing bass.
if you like the 6N6P you may like the 6H30Pi either the sovtec or the electro-harmonix. It has an 800 milliamp heater current but works well with the sunrise II and a little more detail than the 6N6P IMO the sunrise II has a 1 amp heater power supply
Since the 6N6P statement, I have acquired a few different headphones and now I tend to lean toward the 6N23P-EV. The older ones of these are becoming harder to find and I like them so much I have acquired 3.......all Reflector plant which I like better than the Voskhod.
I have checked out the 6N30P-DR on the bay but haven't pulled the trigger on the older Reflector version. Have you compared the vintage version with the Sovtek or Electro Harmonix? I believe that Jeremy indicated that the Sovtek are just the same.

I have not tried the 6H30 DR I may buy one but my favorite tubes so far are the voskhod 6N23 1970's I have 7 of them and the reflectors ov the same vintage I have 4 of them they are relatively cheap and sound great

I just pulled the trigger on a 1977 6N30P-DR . I already have an EH so I will post my thoughts on the difference in the project sunrise between the EH and the NOS DR
