I have only tried with normal and IsoTek power cable. Here's my observations : 1) It makes a diff in sounding : quieter background , instruments are more focused. 2) Cable is thick, so its hard to bend around corners. so do plan your cable layout carefully. 3) the connecting portion is not as...

Anyone looking to get LP, Amazon is now selling one for $615.99 : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07K7YSL41/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_10?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 New LP2 coming ? :)

you can check out mine and decide for yourself :)

I was told there will be a new firmware for DX200 soon to support AMP9......

I had microphonics issue with this tube when plugging directly into my CTH. But after using the socket saver, the problem goes away
