My MK III arrived today, slick looking amp
. My first impressions after a little over an hours worth of use, from a sound standpoint is why do people call tube amps "warm". In fact what I am noticing is better seperation between instruments, greater dynamics and a bit punchier bass. So in fact what I am getting is more detail and a clearer presentation (over my solid state Denon avr headphone section). It really makes my MS1's sing.
It kind of reminds me of those posts by Jakewash comparing his Denon to the Axiom amp with his Axiom speakers but this deals with headphones and a headphone amp ...just my initial impressions.
Pics coming soon....
