Interesting. I’m not well versed in tube amps at all, but now I am. Did you go to can jam? Or heard the wa33 or Feliks envy? I’d like to know your opinion on the sound differences you’d noticed between them all with your pair.

Also is every input hole like adding gain on a standard amp?

I’m at the point of where I was when I was searching for a “perfect” pair of headphones. So many options between tube amps and I have no idea on how they work and it looks like the only place I can demo them is at shows like these which is frustrating.

No, I think I should’ve. The rep told me in his experience is that he didn’t notice a difference in either of the outs so I took his word for it and just compared at 16. Honestly, didn’t know the brand or anything about the amp so I didn’t wanna start experimenting with stuff that isn’t my own

Definitely try the LCD-5 with the red ampsandaudio amp, the Susvara with the Envy and the Elite with the Wa33/23. Those were the best listening experiences I had.

I didn't find it hard to demo what I wanted. However, I did get there pretty late and from combing other impression posts around the net. I think most of the hype was near the Abyss table earlier on in the day.
