Absolutely stunning. It (or a replica) should be in the Museum of Modern Art. Plus, it reproduces music !!!

The colour of the amp body……Strike up the amp for the good old red (body), white and blue (caps)!….🎺 🥁

This is an amplifier I might sell, it has to pass my testing and I will send to some friends for their evaluation and approval before greenlighted, so we will see, but it was designed with that intention in mind.

Today's setup. Brought the LP out of my bedroom and into my office, so now I'm working with my Dual 1019, Monoprice Liquid Platinum with a pair of Conn-branded RCA 12AU7s, my Verite Closeds, and my Bottlehead Crack w/Speedball, sporting another RCA 12AU7 and a graphite-plate Tung-Sol 6080. Also lots of tubes and adapters for rolling (these are the ones that get semi-regular use).
For a split second I thought the tubes sticking out of the foam was a full on amp and I was extraordinarily confused and worried.

What's your favourite amp pairing for the Empys?
I enjoy the Empy most with the Benchmark which sounds neutral so that the signature of Empy will not be further coloured.

Oh my goodness, that is wonderful. I want. If you wouldn’t mind, just put that in a box and mail it to me for safe keeping. You can never be too sure these days.

Yeah, I didn't really enjoy the Empy on the Pendant SE because it colours them further. This is why I've been really enjoying the Empy on the Naim Uniti Atom HE.
