I'm using a forza audioworks 3.5mm to rca, decent cable and great length. Enjoying this setup a lot. Probably give it another few weeks and then put the idac back in the loop and figure out what I like better.


To these ears Mojo gives slightly better sound tonality and stage. Bass is a liiitle bit stronger too. It's just a slight difference in comparison to iFi iDSD micro.

A lot of changes and additions to the system since I last posted as well as re arranging the room entirely, got rid of the bed to another room and replaced it with a sofa bed... think my priorities are slightly skewed.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Think that'll be it for the next while, at least until I'm in the new house in a year or two. Then it's going to be a separate Hifi, separate cinema and a bedroom rig to put together. Hope there's a lot of overtime at work!

What tubes are you using? It looks like the TAK's and C3G.

I think if you parked a Tesla there it might actually drop the value of the room.

Got the Tak 274b's and 300b's with Siemens C3G's in the pic. The C3G's are fast transparent tubes, nice for analytical listening, but a little thin for my usual listening. Though I've still got to get around to playing around with different tube and output mode combinations to get the most from them.
Right now I've got the Tak's and TSRP drivers, after working nightshift and hitting the gym just want to get home and get enveloped by the music. The TSRP are nice warm, rich, yet detailed and articulate. Perfect for just getting lost in the music with. The C3G's are more a stimulating listen.

Yeah. I'm using the TAK274B and TSRP's at the moment as well. Very relaxing. Seems to hit all the right buttons.
 

 
My rig at the moment.
 

 
I have the LCD-3 and the LCD-X. For ease of use I just put the LCD-X's on another shelf.
