About a year difference between the square getter and O getter? I'd expect the older tube to sound better. What are your initial impressions?In and cooking!
Mine is cooking too! I am about to have the first listen. . .In and cooking!
As of right now. I mean these are literally out of the box. The O and Square getter are VERY similar in sound. The square sounds a little bigger in dimensionality. Has more clarity and a cleaner /sharper image. The bass on the square at this point is lagging behind the O in impact and slam. Tonally though they're so close.About a year difference between the square getter and O getter? I'd expect the older tube to sound better. What are your initial impressions?
Fine cooking —> great ‘square’ meal …Mine is cooking too!
I am right there with ya and completely agree with everything said. I am digging the added clarity, slightly cleaner vocals, and sharper transients so far.As of right now.

The initial thing that jumped out at me was the size of the image. Just seems bigger than the O but I'll do A/B once I get to 100. Lol
Well, here's my 2nd rate, 2nd tier O-getters. I feel like I'm in the cheap seats. Shrug. They test very nicely...maybe they won't suck compared to the D-getters. Thanks for raining on my parade, @TK16 .I am right there with ya and completely agree with everything said. I am digging the added clarity, slightly cleaner vocals, and sharper transients so far.
TBH they sounded fantastic with a 10 minute burn in.W

No, I haven't listened to them yet. I'll give 'em 25 hours before first listen, as improvements from there should be incremental rather than substantial.

afford my own back-up pair.
Couple things...#1: your WA33 is worth more than my car; and #2: you thought those 800S's were screetchy BEFORE the Scary Feet. Ha !!! For your sake, let me take those bad boys off your hands.Oh, it is ez to be a dummy and spend money. My crazy move was the speakers.. and.. I’m done.
i don’t have a car… so tubes, speakers and dac are my mid life crisis/covid buys.
If only the mj2 was in black… and it wasn’t with schiit now being repaired.
are the scary feet taming the 800s? I’ve not used them in some time, but if they can turn the bright down of the hd800s… then hopefully the focals too.
The genius lies in spending other people’s money …Oh, it is ez to be a dummy and spend money.
