kt77 vrs kt120 in Rogue M180s
Put some kt120s in my cayin a100T 2 weeks ago against the advice from the distributor. They said the amp probably would not be able to push them. So far I have had no issues keeping bias and the sound has drastically improved. Mid range is soooo m... 
KT 120 tubes safe to use with Cayin A100T
The Cayin is manual bias. It has been reccomended that I not use these with the A100T by USA tube audio. 
Kef 201/2 your impressions and comparisons
My cayin does not have a pre out so i have the sub hooked up by the speaker wires. Basically put another set of speaker wires from the output terminals and splice in resistors and then splice into rcas and then into the sub. I have been trying to ...

Just a note that my main musical taste is rock and metal and classic rock.. The Cayin is IMO better than any SS amp I have heard for this type of music. It's a fast little fucker and the dose of tubes takes the edge off and makes the guitars a lit...

The Cayin is 100W per channel. I had heard it pushing B&W 802N at the dealer with plenty of headroom and tight bass. Pretty balsey amp actually. Not real tubey sounding. Went ahead and bought the 201s. So far very happy with them. Love the det...

Audioengr, new to the thread but I am glad I read your post. Would have saved me a lot of money If I read it earlier. I did as suggested in the link you provided. Downloaded the audio tools app in conjunction with the Amarra eq and I am astounded ... 
Anyone has heard the Bel Canto REFLink Asynchronou
Thanks for the suggestions. I am now looking at converters with the I2S output. Looks like it may be the best route to take with my dac. 
Adding Tone Controls?
Bought the audio tools app off iTunes and downloaded some pink noise on the Mac mini. After running the spectrum analyzer and adjusting the eq in amarra to the best of my ability to get a flat response I am astounded at the difference. Everything ... 
Anyone has heard the Bel Canto REFLink Asynchronou
I have a wyred 4 sound dac-2 which has the asych usb. Anyone tried one of these convertors or similar with the wyred. What were the differences observed and do you feel the price was justified? Right now I prefer the toslink out of the mac mini to... 
Cayin A100T vs Spark MT-100k
Buconero, can you tell me how to get in touch with Steve? I am actually living in Shanghai at the moment and the MT100k price is slightly higher than the A100T. I bought the Cayin but could still exchange it for a small fee if there was any advant...
