Good decision :L3000:

It has a Pelican case, but I think the Pelican case and weight of the Nautilus / Red October is over the limit for a plane but I could be wrong. (Agartha / Bigger Ben / Rockwell might be the limit as Nautilus / Red October are larger and heavier being dual monos in a single chassis. Justin would...

This is very tempting. I might have to join you @DenverW

I already have 6 and I’m considering it 😂

These are Russian 6S5S, mid to late 50’s based on the construction. One of my absolute favorite 6J5’s (and difficult to find after a certain member decided to horde them all) 😉

Hell ya. Let’s get this thread back on track. Can’t wait for the review!

Chord DACs for example as they will convert DSD back to PCM (adding all sorts of ultrasonic noise etc in the process, defeating the point of HQP upsampling to DSD). Chord DACs are recommended highest PCM input instead Denafrips isn’t as cut and dry as they are a black box as to what is going...

Wow, never thought I would see the day. Excellent selection of tubes at a steal. GLWS Wes, this should go quick.:fire:

I might take you up on that lol

I may have to take him up on that offer when I get back to CA in a couple of weeks. I’ll practically be neighbors with him (20 min away) so I can save him on shipping 😉

BB is going to have more tube rolling options, it will take anything you can throw at it including power hungry planars. Thick mids and tons of slam Agartha is that “live music” sound. Stage is vast and wide, notes trail off into the distance and seem to dance in the holographic stage...

Stock Agartha is definitely an improvement. Holy Grail top to bottom in the Pendant is still no match for that 300B sound

I had always thought the same, but I’m always shocked when I come across Agartha and Rockwell owners who are still rocking stock tubes (they don’t know what they are missing) Bigger Ben not so much as that is built for tube rolling and every owner I know has bought it for that express purpose

Try some RFT foil getters

Bigger Ben, Agartha, Nautilus, Red October

Had a blast today at the opening of the KAWS + Warhol exhibit. Was a few feet away from Brian on a couple of occasions.

There’s also big differences in the year / factory of production with the Valvos as well

Damn. These should go fast. GLWS!!! 🔥

Wow! 🤩
