Yes I can get these voltages for you. I'll have these for you tomorrow morning. Getting into bed right now....

I'm hoping that both of your tubes have the same Voltages on Pins 2 & 4 - and that I can adjust my tubes to those voltages. :ksc75smile:

I use the Origin cable on my Hylas, great cable, and for $50 it's even better.
I just canceled my order. I was reading the comments on Drop and people were saying the cable has all sorts of QC issues. They were talking about sending the cables back 2 - 3 times to get it fixed and having to pay shipping to China.

Hmmmm, but you've had good luck with yours. Hard decision now.

I have had luck, but I also didn't get it from Drop. And, I had QC issues with 2 of the 3 Vogue series cables on the tour I was a part of. I might not have even bought the Origin cable after that experience. Maybe I have the exception not the rule with the Origin cable I have?

EDIT: Damn, I just read the Discussions over there. It would appear I am one lucky SOB, lol.

I'm going to skip this one. To bad. It looks like a nice cable.

I'll get the voltages today for you.

Thanks!
.
With a bit more searching, I found another discussion about the B4-X, over on the diyAudio Forums.
One of the posters indicated that he measured these voltages:
Board Pin 2 = Tube Pin 7 = g2 (Screen Grid) = 6.08V
Board Pin 4 = Tube Pin 5 = a (Anode) = 6.50V

Awesome brother. It's one of those songs that gets you and pulls you in.

What audio player are you using?

It really is that type of jam. MusicBee is the player, that is the mini version of a dark theme I use on it.
