Amazon must know that tomorrow is my birthday, because this showed up on my door today, 10 days before the expected delivery date.
Once the outer layer is removed, there is not a lot of mystery left.
And here they are, out of the box.
I’m trying them out as a complement to my Arya Stealth. I hope they do have the magic timbre, otherwise they’re going back and I’ll keep searching for something else.
And now, time for some music!

Taking this chain to the next level…
Black or steel for the DNA…that’s the real question…
Definitely an improvement all around

Thought I’d get us in the holiday spirit!
Nope, it’s German!

Not the typical headphone related item but an upgrade to my Roon/HQPlayer setup.

Picked up a Rooms stand. Pretty nice overall. Wish it was a tad taller like my Woo stands but still very nice.

My Christmas purchases showed up today.
Bought on Monday 12/19 Schiit & FedEx got the Heretic to me in three days:
The Heretic on my desk, good thing it is a small device.
I also got a gift certificate at work so that turned into a pair of Koss KPH30 headphones.

Nice little treat before the Holiday weekend!
My only dilemma is I now need to fit the Feliks Audio Envy, Enleum Amp-23r, Nitsch Piety and HM1 on my desk and find a way to listen to them all at the same time.

Ditch the Nitsch and connect the Envy to the Zahl to the Enleum in a preamp chain
Jokes aside, would love to get your impressions and comparisons between the three higher end ones.

Very exciting. I’d like to know what rack you decide on. Definitely won’t be a cheap one.

How bad could it be for 115€?
The first impression is that it has no sound!
I must give it some time though!
It’s quite good that it gives the opportunity to play a lot with preamp gain while using EQ.
I’ll use it with HD600, DT770/250, DT880/600 (waiting for them to arrive), HD25 Alum, Audeze Sine.
Mainly with my Linux laptop connected to SSL2+ audio interface.

I don’t know, is that a rhetorical question?
Smartass sarcasm aside, let us know! That brand doesn’t have much traction in the States… Similar pricing to Schiit Magni, so pretty entry level?

Donald delivered it on Monday. He was happy to set it up for me, and gave me tips on how to be careful with the tubes. Thank you Donald!
