Absolutely! You can search Jazz Brothers- Walnut Wood Audio Rack on Ebay, the seller is luckyday8899 I love how the dark wood contrasts against the silver Amp, and it has just enough room I can fit both the amp and my headphone stand which is *chefs kiss*- trollbearpig

Finally got a proper table for this guy ^_^ I had some really funky setup before having to use multiple tables to hold everything without a proper rack ><.- trollbearpig

Holo Audio May DAC Speculation
Does holding the power button for a few seconds put the May in standby ? Do I need to press the power button again to leave standby or will it auto-detect a signal and turn back ?_?- trollbearpig

Also on drivers ive been really enjoying the GEC ST L63s. They aren’t as mid forward as the white prints, and feel a bit more neutral. But they add detail and dynamics which is very nice while still retaining a butter smooth midrange. I still need to do more comparisons against the white prints...- trollbearpig

Wait what?? The official advice everywhere is to always use Paypal invoice and avoid friend and family or direct payments, you have no recourse otherwise. The fee in Paypal invoice is there to protect buyers and sellers alike.- trollbearpig

Are you guys using socket savers for the 6sn7 or 300b tubes ? I rarely take out my 300b tubes so that's probably fine but I do switch the 6sn7's occasionally like maybe 1-2 a week or something. Wondering if I should be using socket savers or not 0_o- trollbearpig

That's the thing with tube amps. You are more reviewing the tubes (combo) than the amp itself, unless you actually have another amp to compare with the same set of tubes. Than it's a tube review not an amp review imo- trollbearpig

Holo Audio May DAC Speculation
Is XLR or RCA preferred for the May? And does anyone have favorite cable brands they recommend ?_? I will need a new cable as my old one is too short.- trollbearpig

Thanks! I'm really just looking for flexible cables that look nice and have solid feeling interconnects. I love the ones that are kind of made of soft fabric almost and don't have any rigidity to them. I've been using the APOs Flow XLR cables which are actually quite nice feeling but too short...- trollbearpig

I got a new audio rack incoming to store this beast and my current XLR cable will no longer reach from dac -> amp, so looking at a new cable. Does RCA vs XLR make a difference as far as interconnects, and are their any decent brands for quality but not outrageously priced cables you guys might...- trollbearpig

Why would it not be critical? I actually did feel like one channel was having a higher volume then another and this was visible with the volume meter, so I am already in doubt with their matching. Although I didn't have much time with them to test and verify this obviously before one died on me.- trollbearpig
