I did use both the AVA and MHDT Havana tube DACs. And both sounded very good via the Dark Star, but with the LCD-2 I still preferred the Leben or Trafomatic, and with the HD-800 I preferred the Leben, Trafomatic, and Woo WA22. I don't love the Woo - LCD-2 combo, and I did prefer the Dark Star with the LCD-2 over the WA-22. And again i liked the Dark Star better than any of the others with the HE-6. I do, in general, prefer tube headphone amps, but I have yet to get one that has the kind of power of the Dark Star or my vintage receivers, and the HE-6 just loves to be fed huge amounts of juice.
