Last one today. Pinky promise.

That is a really good track. One of my other favorite albums from his is Live in Tokyo with Robben Ford.

I haven’t heard some of the other artists you mentioned. I’ll be looking them up this evening.

+1 I listened to the Robben Ford Live In Tokyo earlier today.

I fear the Valhalla 3 will follow suit and be as visually dull. To me. Oh well.

I wouldn't be so sure about that…
And I don't think that I can agree with you on that new Vali looking dull. That dished area around the tube looks pretty cool to me. If anything, it makes that new Vali look less dull than its predecessors. Should also help keep the amp a tad cooler, since it exposes more of the tube to the air outside of the case. I would also imagine that it makes using adapters a little easier.

I was told it’s hybrid. Tube in, ss out.

This is correct.

@NiGHTS4EVA Shared a photo in the CanJam NYC impressions thread:

Damn...that is so enticing... But it will be so expensive to get on my porch after FedEx and revenue Canada see it.

At first glance the Vali 3 looks too pedestrian for me. At second glance? Same. Obviously it is not for me. I fear the Valhalla 3 will follow suit and be as visually dull. To me. Oh well.

Closing in on 10,000 pages... Vali 3 and Valhalla 3 will get us there.

At an estimated 6 new pages a day that's a bit less than three months...

To be fair, the 5670 is a fully discrete tube - subdued even. Not show-offy like those fancy directly heated tubes.

Sorry, all I can see is:

This is fantastic stuff from Jack Wilkins. Whole album is just marvelous.

Chain now is Cambridge Audio MXN10 > Freya N (tubes engaged and cookin') > Magni+ > HD6xx & a very flavorful 10.5% TIPA from Vice Beer.

It is how it SOUNDS that matters. Buy darker glasses.

Wow! Just Wow! I can finally say with confidence that My Schiit Don't Stink!

Love her. Saw her at Yoshi's before she was big!

For those looking for some bass tracks try Lady Blackbird's Black Acid Soul.

Fix it!

One of THE best recorded albums.........

Did I recommend this new release yet? Perfect for @Ripper2860 to test the Aegir 2. Does it sound like listening to the band in a good live jazz venue? Can you see them with their particular mannerisms in your mind's eye? I must say this is better than the last time I heard some of them (Mehldau and Blade with Redman and McBride) live, Monterey Jazz 2022. Potter really drives them to their best.
