I guess since we’re listing random things now, I got a set of Toyo R888Rs over the weekend.

Made a bit of changes over the past week, sold off and traded some things, but the main changes are a Luxman L-590AXII and Raidho D1.1 for my main desk setup

I’m getting both amps because of my stupid Arya and its high treble. in case the RNHP doesnt tame it, its the liquid spark lol. I could have waited but ive been wanting a warm amp anyway. all my amps are high treble

if the liquid spark isnt enough a hybrid amp might be up your alley instead. like the cavelli tube hybrid

You have a dark voice coming any day now, yes? Should also be a fun experiment.
Well the Arya being a planar probably wont sound good on a dark voice i assume.
Usually planars don’t pair well with tubes as a general rule, but there can sometimes be exceptions.
It won’t why I said a hybrid instead. At least hybrids have manageable output impedance for a planar.
Yeah i have a hybrid garage 1217 ember amp. top of their line. but i got it used on ebay and it came with a broken volume nob. so i got to get that fixed.
Once your DV arrives you could also use its pre-out to loop back into a solid state amp and make a hybrid tube that way.

You might have to mod it to avoid hum but yeah would work just fine
I likeThat Luxman-- it has a total 80s vintage look to it.
How are those Raidho? I have always wanted some ribbon tweeter speakers.

Crazy good, but I wouldn’t suggest spending that much to try out a ribbon, there are some pretty great ribbon speakers for way less

I see Martin Logan bookshelves on sale all the time. I’ll have to sit down at the store with a pair and see how they sound.
Forgot to mention i got a Hello Fresh 90$ gift card with my liquid spark. pretty cool
