    Cayin HA-3A, a Compact 6V6s Transformer-coupled Tube Amplifier

    Listened a few hours today to the HE1000 stealth and I have to say there is an improvement in SQ vs my 12AU7 Raytheon, but not a step change as I've experienced with with ZMF AO. I have to say, that I find the HE1000 Stealth is such a great HP, they are really versatile and easy to find...

    Cayin HA-3A, a Compact 6V6s Transformer-coupled Tube Amplifier

    but power (assuming you are speaking about dB/volume) is not something to worry about with HA-3A, never used volume knob above 50%, normally 25% is loud enough... and I'm using RCAs, if you use XLR interlinks to XLR output (there are 3 gain modes), probably there is no headphones that can't be...

    I was about to sell it before starting tube rolling…I found the stock tubes to be a bit harsh, now I got a much more warm, clear and resolving, nowadays sound quality has a massive jump. I never tried the envy, can’t help you on that!

    Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC

    Decided to wait a bit more and asked Audiophonics to change the Cyan 2 for a Laiv Harmony (they start distributing in EU), now will be waiting till the end of June at least :xf_cool: Taking the risk in the Laiv... but seems to be a notch above the Holo and more into the May territory
