    I do have 6189s ... and have the 'yellow print, long plate' 12AU7 (as marked on tube). I have not tried 6189s yet. EDIT: Corrected for myopic error 🤦‍♂️ !!

    An insanely good combination -- Grado GS3000x / Schiit Vali 3 / Telefunken 'medical grade, red tip' 12AU7 via adapter: "It's alive!"

    Are Zmf auteur classic worth it?

    ☑️: DenverW. For those looking for their first (only?) ZMF headphone, I recommend Auteur Classic. It is a headphone that exhibits, in a balanced & neutral way, the many virtues of ZMF design & sound.

    • The preposterous 'tubing' of Schiit Vali 3 with Telefunken 'medical grade, red tip' 12AU7 via adapter .... "It's alive!" [ .... ionospheric performance by Vali 3 in rendering ambience, spatial cues .... 😲 ]

    • Well, it looks as though Xuling Audio Lab (xulingmrs) -- a reputable, great source for adapters -- is off EBay / ceased (paused? 🙏) operations. • As for 12AU7 --> 5670 adapters for Vali 3, these show up on Ebay: 😒 These look crappy, do not have seem to have the Xuling workmanship...

    Schiit Vali 3 : Impressions Thread

    In Vali 3, I have been using 12AU7-type tubes vs 5670-type tubes. 12AU7 has a gain factor (amplification) of 20x vs 35x for 5670. So a little more clockwise volume knob rotation is possible. 🤷🏻‍♂️
