No I can research what balanced is on my own no big deal. CPU i7 6850k GPU: EVA FTW3 3080 Monitor: Dell 2716DGR + another 1440p ultra sharp. SSD: 512GB 850 Pro | 970 Pro 500 AMP/DAC:Magni 3 + Modi 2.

Posted August 1, 2017 Not fully balanced since inputs are single ended, there's no point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both will probably be good for me. Darkvoice is back on Massdrop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Darkvoice has more power than the MK2, which is why it will run hotter and is larger. The Darkvoice is a much warmer sounding tube AMP than the MK2. Now most people are not super impressed with the Darkvoice stock, it s a very common AMP for tube rolling. Many people replace the tubes and love the thing after that.

Yea I am interested in tube rolling whichever amp I decide to get. Any suggestions on tubes for either? Or should I go to headfi and ask around?

When it comes to tube rolling that's where my knowledge ends to be frank with you. I would go ask around with people who know more about that than me. Only thing I know is that a certain RCA tube is popular with the Darkvoice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
