ZMF Vérité Open with Headmp GS-X Mini and Gustard X16 DAC

I'm in the middle on an upgrade so I'm trying to figure which DAC I want (R2R?)

I've been using my Susvara and TC a lot lately and the 845 just has way more power (15W) and sounds fantastic (I've also upgraded most of the tubes on it (rectifier, 6sn7, and power tubes), but haven't yet upgraded the 300b on the Cayin). I have used it with the LCD-4 when I was looking for a warmer sound which was great.
It looks like you did upgrade the HA-300's 6SN7s to a pair of Tung-Sol VT99/6F8G tubes + adapters? If so, I've got the same ones for my HA-300, but unfortunately due to covid, they're stuck a very, very long ways away at my parents' house.

How did you feel about the VT99 vs. stock?

A lot of owners say upgrading the 300Bs has quite a positive impact, but mine are also stuck at my parents' :sob: Besides going after the insano priced WE 300Bs, people say the new Psvane Acme 300Bs are good with the HA-300. I went for the Elrog 300Bs as they're said to be a little livelier and hot. Maybe some day I'll get to find out~

The Gemini twins or the Thompson twins depending on how violent you want them to be.

Pretty sweet! Make us all jealous. Fine.

This is what I'm listening to right now, and it doesn't sound very good. :sob:

Well whoever build that is very talented if he's not already mad from all that soldering. If you put a nice chassis on and put in all the tubes and take a time exposure shot, it will be in-cre-di-ble.
