Alright, I caved in and bought tickets to CanJam Dallas in case the BCT does make it to the show. Hopefully I'll run into some of you there.

Tubes, schmubes. Who needs tubes when you have an insane, fully discrete, solid state preamp running on 64V rails—something so over the top that the likes of this haven’t been seen for 30+ years. Welcome to Kara, the all-new do-all Nexus™ preamp from Schiit Audio.OK.
Done.
I've decided to leave Kara on the 4x position.
A wall to wall image is musical bliss along with that sweet top end and sublime mid-range.
I'd almost swear that Kara has tubes in it.
Ooh. "I'm lovin' it"

Yes! This! Nobody needs tubes, and everybody should stop buying them immediately.Tubes, schmubes.

It will be a while but I may try to build the cabinet as I do other wood working.Yes.
9" width is perfect. It's a bit tight in there. 6.5" depth is fine.
(No hurry btw)
You'll probably have some pieces leftover from my tube rack that you can use.It will be a while but I may try to build the cabinet as I do other wood working.![]()
By the way you are paying for the semi and forklift to get your gigantic tube rack delivered to Buzzard Belch Oklahoma or whatever Hellhole you reside in now.You'll probably have some pieces leftover from my tube rack that you can use.![]()
Thought you had all the good ones!!!Yes! This! Nobody needs tubes, and everybody should stop buying them immediately.
Way too much competition for the good ones....![]()
... any place with audio toys is cool with me), but the more things for sale, the less the focus on Schiit.
.... Speakers? ...
But whatever it is, it must have a use case with Schiit gear. ...
FTR, the only reasons I brought up speakers were:... familiar with wrt my speaker brand/type suggestions ...
Interesting that the DeVore website claims a response of 30Hz-31kHz. Is it a limitation of pairing with this amp?I owned the Orangutan 0/93's, driven by a Shindo Cortese amp. They sounded great, although the limitations of the speakers were easy to find (extreme low bass, even some stand-up bass in jazz recordings, could make them audibly struggle.)
Suddenly it occurs to me that the Devore primate-themed speaker series and the Schiit Ape may be a match made in stereo. Maybe confer with the "top banana, John Devore" as it calls him on the homepage.I owned the Orangutan 0/93's, ... They sounded great, although the limitations of the speakers were easy to find...
