What's in the box!

Nice.

I was recently told that the Telefunkin Black Diamond is an excellent tube for the Vali.

LOL, if he wanted a PS5, he’d have to tell me. Have a conversation with his dad that doesn’t involve angry grunts? Not happening.

Anyway, he’s a PC gamer. He already has a custom gaming PC with TOTL graphics card. For whatever reason, he doesn’t seem to be interested in consoles.

Mine’s still acting like that at the age of 20, although he is starting to show signs of returning to a semblance of normality. I spend a lot of time in Czech and they wouldn’t put up with their kids acting up like we do (I wouldn’t have got away with it when I was that age, although I certainly tried). :rofl:

You know he’s going to open his present and say “This is Schiit”. You can’t win… :wink:

Sir… you have dropped something on your SPL!!!

Btw re kids: In my country kids on average move away from home at the age of 21.
I have told that to both mine, and hope they live up to that :smiling_imp:

I bought it directly from Schiit so it’s the most recent Vali.

I think it has the Magni footprint…with a tube sticking out the top, lol.

In recent years, the age that kids move out of their parents houses here seems to have settled in their mid 30’s!!

If the Ifi Micro box size is an indication of the unit size, it doesn’t look very micro :slight_smile:

Anyone else try modding the Vali…?
I run 6SN7s and equivalents thru mine with an adapter.

Oh oh oh Canada wide tour for the Neo. Or at least @resolve. Reviews have been more favourable than I anticipated so I’m curious about this unit.
