I have the same setup. Surprisingly good! Beats the AK SR15 driving the iSines in balanced mode, in my opinion.

Nice Aeolus! Is that bubinga wood?

How's that Nobsound passive box working for you?

Yes, nice eye! The Nobsound has worked well in giving me some play in the pot on the liquid platinum without any difference in sound quality (that I can hear at least). Even with the high impedance on the Aeolus, I can't go past 9 o'clock without blowing my ear drums on the LP. For me, the Nobsound is essential for me to even be able to use the Cavalli.

"End Game" because it cannot produce any music?
It is the first and best ever music phone and still sounds wonderfully now!

Is that the Element II DAC/Amp, or just the Amp? Just wondering how the DAC/Amp is, as I am looking around at affordable and clean DAC/Amp options for my home office.
I have the original Element DAC/Amp that I use with my computer and the LCD-X, and I am really impressed with how it sounds. Only thing I'm not a fan of is some pretty pronounced channel imbalance under 9:00 on the dial, but I'm pretty sure this is par for the course for many volume controls. My others are stepped attenuators, so it stands out for me on the Element. Sound is excellent though - detailed and clean but non-fatiguing. Also, very neutral and plenty of power for the vast majority of headphones.

Thanks! Will read up on it a little more.
