Swapped out my HPA-4 + Chord Qutest for the Chord TT-2. Got a custom Norne Audio cable for my Empyrean's as well!

This would be my current endgame setup. I did hear the combo, it is awesome.

How was the HPA4 with the Empyrean? I had the HPA4 with my Utopia and Z1R and it added nothing. But with the 800S I was demoing it did wonders, I ended up sending it back along with the 800S.

Personally I love the HPA4 + Empyrean (with my Chord DAVE upfront). In fact, this was my preferred setup during my Empyrean review (coming out soon on Headphone.Guru). :)

I quite enjoyed the HPA-4 with the Empyrean, and really anything that I plugged into it for that matter. There was plenty power, detail, finesse, and mostly importantly a nice inky black background for the low distortion that the Empyrean has. Looking back I could've been content with the HPA-4 for the rest of my life. There is nothing but praise from me for the HPA-4.

Many changes to my system lately (even more than usual (!)). The Pass Labs INT-150 and Dave are new. Some combination of the Pavane, X150.8, Freya, and Singxer SU-6 will be looking for new homes.

Looks fantastic and I am sure it sounds the same. :)

I am still rockin' the GS-X mk2 from your Mid 2018 set-up.

Are you running the Susvara from the Pass INT-150? That must be a lovely pairing :)
