How does the Tube Mini stack up to similarly priced desktop amps for planars?

How does the Tube Mini stack up to similarly priced desktop amps for planars?

It’s perfectly fine. I ran the abyss and dca stealth on it to unbearable volume

As long as you monitor your volume, it can be quite a IEM monster of an amp.

I wonder if it does best on IEM with SE, not just because of lower power over SE (better control with sensitive driver) but also because of lower noise floor…

I find that the hiss and ringing just too much for IEMs even going down the less sensitive ones is still quite there. Maybe a really insensitive one will be usable.

I really definitely don't notice the ringing if the amp is stationary. There is hiss, but it is quite low, in my experience.

Thanks! How did it sound with Diana?

Is it powerful enough to get good dynamics out of the HD 650?

Easily through 4.4mm! (don't think I used the 3.5mm while I had them). Plus with the 650's I couldn't detect any hiss unlike the Meze Elites which show I very low level of hiss through the 4.4mm

Thanks! By the way do you know how to turn off alerts from other threads? I keep getting notifications for Grado and really don’t want any more.

NYC CanJam preview video has that power base featured. It looks great! But I'm curious for more details about it like price or release date.

So it has a battery? That'll be nice for use with DAPs.
