Yeah, funny thing is my first and second wives were very Scandinavian, blonde. My third wife is very brunette. Who would have thunk. Hopefully the third times a charm.Blond, red, brown, black there all good to me

And here I just want a new HibyThanks for the advice both of you. I owned the x5 and x5ii Fiio DAPs way back when. I have to say they were excellent. But, yeah, like you said @Richsvt they aren't TOTL. The M23 looks killer though. The AKM DAC in the M23 is very interesting. But, the tubes in the Cayin N3 Ultra may tip the scales. Decisions, decisions. I'm probably starting a new onsite job so looking for something portable. Maybe I'll go iBasso DX320Max Ti. Don't need something super portable. . Time to sell some amps and make some room for a DAP again. How do I always end up with way to many amps and not enough DACs?
Yeah, Hiby make nice DAPs. That's what I've used for years. I want to change things up this time though.And here I just want a new Hiby
I think I'm going to go with the N3 Ultra. I'm going to wait for it to come out though. I'm sure prices will come down after release. I also want to read a few reviews before I buy.The N3Ultra is a pretty nice looking package
I read that it does support the 4.4mm connection with tubes. It's an SE path though. They were going to do a fully balanced circuit with 4 tubes but decided against it because of the heat, size increase and power draw.I love the sound of the N3Pro. Love having a portable unit with tubes. I'm interested in seeing if the Ultra can support Balanced output in tube mode (the N3P cannot) and also what the power will be.
That is an expensive quad of tubes. I tried a set of 300 Bs in this make, but didn't want to put that much down on tubes. I thought Gold Lion 300 Bs paired with Shuguang Treasure CV181-Z were awesome. I've heard Emission Labs is excellent too.Speaking of tubes, I got these coming. Down the rabbit hole I go
