Mjolnir Carbon CC SE vs Headamp BHSE

Equipment / Electronics / Gear / Accessories Headphone Amps

Considering getting another electrostatic amp, looking for something mainly solid state or hybrid in the case of the HeadAmp Blue Hawaii SE. Currently have a Woo 3ES Elite with Takatsuki TA-300B & TA-274B and Sylvania VT-231. Would be using it with the Shang Sr., Senn HE60, Stax 007mk2 and 003mk2, as well as a ESP95x. I have already heard these amps, but I don’t have a whole ton of time with them, and was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on either one, just curious to see some extra thoughts on them (or if anyone has any good recs as well, mainly would prefer solid state and balanced in)

I was kinda thinking that lol, I do like the BHSE but I think I want something fully solid state to go with the full tube, I will send him a message tonight to see if I can pick it up in a few days lol

The Woo gives you your tube goodness, the Hawaiian as a hybrid is awesome, or so the boys at Head-fi insist to death, but you have tube goodness already. Mjolnir is THE solid state to get and if there is anything better out there I haven’t stumbled across it. Only very boutique single one-off pieces guys have made here and there.
