Received my PSET amp just about 10 days ago and had a few days with it before I left for a trip.
What can I say? It's amazing... and surprisingly powerful! I'm running a pair of Altec M14's (rebuilt xovers) with it and it's really pretty incredible. I know there are perhaps better loudspeakers, but I am mighty impressed. I'll write more when I've spent some extended time listening. I'll try it with my Tannoys this weekend. So far I am a happy customer. |

Hi ,
I've just got Audeze LCD-X, and I've really enjoyed them with Fiio X5. Now I want to find amp/dac that makes them sound even better. I heard that LCD-X sounds magical with a pentode tube amplifier and I saw pictures of those on this forum. Is it the right place to ask how I can get one? What do you think about the idea to use it with LCD-X? |

Regarding Dragon Inspire IHA-1 Tube Headphone Amp I have 3 questions - I was told that LCD-X sounds best with pentode tubes. The description says about triodes. I'm not sure if it makes sense, I've never had a tube amplifier, completely new to this area, so I am open to suggestions. - LCD-X is low impedance(20) HP - will it work with this amplifier? - the price is too high for me I was trying to aim <1k$, 500-800$. Is there anything in this price range for my needs? I haven't decided yet should I buy solid-state or tube amp. Based on reviews, I like the most Rupert Neve RNHP from SS amps, so now I want to understand what tube(pentode?) amp can I get for LCD-X and then choose from those 2 options. I will appreciate any comments on that. |

It has enough gain for good volumes, but crushes dynamics in headphones that need power, such as planars. I had Dennis build me a custom Pentode headamp, but I had to pester him for over a year before he finally agreed to it. He might make you one since he already has the design in his head now though. Couldn't hurt to ask. If you wanted to use it specifically with planars tho, you have to tell him that. The transformers need to be spec'd correctly for the low ohm of planar headphones. LCD-X is 20ohm, I use HD800 which are 300ohm. When I use low ohm headphones on my custom amp they sound terrible. Of course because Dennis spec'd my amp for 300ohm loads. |
