Thanks Per. Funnily enough I was going to ask you about the NJC and Violectric amps that I see you’re looking to sell. Is the Myryad in the same league as those?
Hi Rich
Thanks for your message, I have replied to your PM
Amps beeing in different rooms I have yet to bring them together for a compare, this may happen later.
Guess they are in same league but there will be differences to analyse.
For a couple of years I have used the NJC amp with Beyerdynamic DT880 600 ohm headphones.
I decided to sell the cans as I found them rather uncomfortable and heavy in the longer run.
In hindsight I was using this setup far too little to justify it, so decided trying to sell on the NJC amp too and perhaps try something different in the main setup.
Performance was great though and according to views the amp seem to run any quality HP with zero problems.
Indeed the 880 was a great HP, soundwise.
As for the Myryad and Violectric, when the Myriad came on sale in UK I was lucky to source one and a short listening in my main setup proved performance was great on my K701 and DT250. Tbh I have listened for limited hours only but definately a true bargain at 1/4 of retail, (with a free preamp)
By coincidense in the same period a Violectric V90 came up for sale, allways lusted after one of these but realising box count must be reduced so now a bit tricky.
I do like the advantage of having two HP output on both these amps.
Beside a short listen I have yet to do a more serious session and compare but have withdrawn the V90 from sales until further notice.
I'm also waiting to get my newly aquired HD6XX runned in so exiting times ahead.
I hope to find time for a detailed view, amp vs amp, at a later stage, please take my experience for now with a pinch of salt
Cheers
