N@Z 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2003 The Divertech (Antique Sound Lab) website is back up again. Lots of headphone amps there (trans/tube/per+headphone amp) Here's also the affordable ASL Wave tube mono block amps Tenson was looking for. Sorry had to hijack this thread but I couldn't remember the original thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blues 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2003 surprisngly I quite like the x-can V2 with mullard tubes for the cd3k. Not the most detailed amp but the combo is very nice, a little warm, smooth and relaxing. Hm probably that'll be something that I can consider in the future Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mackie 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2003 If so, look at ddriveman's ad on the classified. Pretty good pricing for X-cansV2+PSU and Siemens tubes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In addition you may want to change some of the caps which igves the sound more air and more detail. Check out Pinkfloyd for more information. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2003 Blues, any idea what the Singlepower MPX3 tube amp looks like? Been trying to pull some info about it on head-fi but getting nothing on what this amp is supposed to look like let alone any specific specifications.

Q00 0 Report post Posted September 8, 2003 What is that on the tubes? Wonder how much it costs. looks like something to dissipate the heat from the tubes...prolly to prolong its lifespan?.. or just something to protect the tubes i suppose... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
