Got my second tube amp which is powered by 300B (Little Dot LD-Y2). Too little time for music indeed.
Is the Little Dot can fully drive the Susvara ?

Matt, you thinking of selling any of your tubed gears? ;p Oh...and here's wishing you a Happy New Year!

Hehehe. Happy New Year Ross. Already sold off the Elekit TU-8200. I'll let you know if I want to sell off some of the others. I thought you retired from head-fi.

My office setup. Sources (out of picture) are a Blusound Node 2i (using internal dac), my mac mini via an old audioengine D1, and an old apple tv feeding optical to the cheapest Schiit DAC (used for casual youtube / netflix / prime viewing on ipad via airplay). All sources connected via RCA into the 4x2 matrix switch / selector under the screen on the left.

Output switches between Burson Funk for speakers (JBL Studio 530) and a Monoprice Liquid Platinum for headphones (which i marginally prefer to the Funk headphone out, though i do like to change between them and the Hart cables make that easy!). Headphones are Kennerton Gjallarhorn JM edition. Thinking of upgrades but this has been a very enjoyable and functional rig for the last year or so. Volume knob on the Funk is so satisfying that i often find myself tweaking the volume just for the sake of it!
I will say it again - Luv me some Hart cables! Sooo easy to switch. Great setup.

Is the Grado PS500 plugged into Schiit Asgard? with the tube buffer engaged? That sounds 👍 (I got the answer from your post on the ‘multiple headphones’ thread.)

That I have had since primary / secondary school.😄
5 years of Latin study here.

(I came, I saw, I concurred)

Only then did I discover the stunning truth: there are NO jobs as Latin Translator at the U.N.

New headphone setup.

M1 Mac Mini (Late 2021 model 16Gb/512Gb), Keychron K8 keyboard (Brown Gateron switches), Logitech 502 mouse, Dell P2721Q Monitor, and Satechi USB-C hub.

Roon, Qobuz, Pro-Ject S2 DAC, SPL Phonitor SE/SPL DAC amp, 2021 Edition LCD-X Headphones.

It's a brave man indeed who puts a Mathmos on his Phonitor.

Run! Run for your lives... :D
