Thanks. Its a 9090, and I love it. Sounds awesome with my 650's and Dahlquist dq20's. The phono stage is meh, but I've used a Dynaco sca-50 as my phono stage for years anyway.

Most guys here outside of the vintage receiver thread, don't know just how good some of these are receivers are with headphones.

No doubt man. I've never had some of the high end gear shown in these pictures, but the Sansui kills my Asgard 2 in every way. Pretty happy with my set up, at least on the analog end. I do need to upgrade my dac though...

When I was a kid in the 80's, my dad's system was a Pioneer SX-750, matching Pioneer cassette deck and turntable with some Advent speakers and Akai ASE-22 headphones. Still have the Advents but the rest is long gone. I should try to track some of that stuff down.

You might be surprised how good some of these vintage pieces sound with your headphones...

Stick with high impedance cans though, with the exception of planars, they don't play well with low impedance headphones.

Photography isn't exactly my forte, but I tried the best I could with my amazing phone cameras help

The amp is a clone of the Vioelectric v200 with an independant power supply for both channels. I am using the stock op amps, but I intend to replace them with v5s after replace my modi 2 uber.

It's like us vintage guys have this incredible secret that the non-vintage guys don't know or even want to know in some cases...............
 
Oh, and even low impedance cans like the Denon early models sound awesome out of vintage.  Not just planars.
