I talk about the Xduoo TA-26s OTL headphone amplifier and compare it against the legendary Darkvoice headphone amplifier. I also do some limited tube rolling of the 6NS7.

I sold my Eufonika H5 for Darkvoice 336SE which costs 1/2 less. Point to point hardwiring is simply the best design for tube amps

If this is an OTL amp then what's in the grey box behind the tubes where a transformer normally resides?

That’s A power transformer. If it has output transformers then you typically will see three transformers. One for power and one for each channel.

Hows the preamp can it make my cd player loud for my drums. I have a Ampapa that sounds really good

My Focal Elegia headphones sound awesome. Nice fun preamp going to a Sansui 221 or vintage receiver/amp. I have the TA-26 rolled.

Thanks. Try a higher impedance headphone with it! You will fall in love

Waiting for your TA-66 comparison.

I finally got my TA-66 after 4 months wait. The original batch sold out quickly. Sounds good so far...
