Hi guys, a quick question to get some advice/opinions.
My set up is iMac > Cambridge Audio DacMagic > Little Dot Mk III > HD-650. The little dot still has all of the original tubes it shipped with. All is well with my HD-650's, everything sounds fine but I recently purchased some IE8's for late night listening so no sound leaks. I can't tell anything with the HD-650's but with the IE8's the right channel is noticeably quieter. Distractingly so. The IE8's are fine as I've tested them with two other sources. So, is my amp duff? Driver tube failing? Power tube failing? Please note I have no other spare tubes to swop in and out to test.
