Oh, so sorry!A sad, lonely 6AQ5 whose brother was lost recently (first tube I broke).
And where they fitted?

I would suggest trying out the ifi Pro ican Signature, other than the already lovely Violectric amps.Hello, I was looking for a good, non fatiguing headphone amp for my black screen HD600/650. I'm currently trying a G111 mkII based on reviews I've read about it, and it definitely manages to drive my Sennheisers better than other amps I've tried without sounding too artificial, but I realized I would like a slightly warmer amplifier (and maybe more refined, although this one leans in a good direction). Do you think the V202/222 might be the correct choice? Or maybe a (used) V200/280 is the warmer/safer choice?
Yes & Yes.Do you think the V202/222 might be the correct choice? Or maybe a (used) V200/280 is the warmer/safer choice?
what is an "F.S."?Yes & Yes.
The only problem with used V200/V280 is availability. These rarely come up F.S.
I'm looking for a F.S. V220, and it never seems to happen...
For Sale (sorry!)what is an "F.S."?
Alright, thank you very much. I guess I will probably go with a new 202 since it comes with a warranty, but the 280 seems very alluring given its reputation.Yes & Yes.

Thanks - my new V222 is not F.S.For Sale (sorry!)
I should also add that I heard the stock HD650 and the heavily modded JAR650 on 2 Violectric amps:
- Lake People G109-A (Lake People owns Violectric); and
- The V281
They sounded wonderful on both. In my experience Violectric amps have zero problems not just driving high impedance headphones, but driving them to really excellent, refined sound. I own or owned three high impedance (300 ohm) ZMF dynamic headphones; all sounded wonderful on these same amps...
I'm never giving mine up.Yes & Yes.

I may have missed it but, have you posted much feedback about your new amp?Thanks - my new V222 is not F.S.
Still experimenting - but the stock HD650 does really sound nice with this amp. As DAC I'm using the iFi Pro iDSD in tube+ mode where I recently replaced the stock tubes with the (warmer) WE396A - really a nice combo.....
Does yours have remote control for the volume pot?I'm never giving mine up.
