Budget tube amps/ tube hybrids

Good points. I didn’t pay much for mine. As I say I only found ONE type of tube that made it sound very good. ALL the other tubes I tried were good-to ok at best :wink:
Interesting. I think we have [over all] fairly different sounding characteristics of headphones
So on another level Im interested to learn your experiences

Admittedly I use the LDT1+ for a relaxed musical enjoyment whilst the I use the 02 for a more reference experience. I have another 4 or 5 amps all of which of course work better with some headphones than others… but Im sure we all know that here :smiley:

As others mention, there can be so many components in ones audio chain all of which can make a tiny to huge difference in sound
Ive been enjoying mostly 600 ohm flagship type 1980’s headphones with the LD1+ which certainly seems a nice synergy

@Torq - We are just politely chatting. Relax xXx
