🔷 xDuoo MT-604

I really love this little amp. It drives all headphones surprisingly well. I have a ZMF Auteur, He-6seV2, Focal OG Clear, and HD-6XX. I have replaced the tubes with four Sylvania Jan 5654w. Those tubes are very good and very cheap at under $10 per tube. And my DAC is a Bifrost 2.

I agree, it’s wonderful! I use it with L&P W2. May I ask where you got the Sylvania tubes from?

Ebay. The seller was vacuumtubesdotnet

Could you please compare them to other tubes that you’ve tried like maybe ge or voskhods?

I don’t have those tubes and don’t intend to buy them. These sound so good on their own that I don’t feel the need to try others. I also really like Sylvania tubes in general. I use them for the Darkvoice and Valhalla 2

I crack myself up because I got these 2 really good, matched sets of PS Vane and Mullard tubes for the TA-20, but I love the way the Gold Lion tubes I currently have in the amp sound so much I can’t bring myself to take them out! I’ll get there; I guess it’s gonna take longer than I thought.

Hi,

If anyone got this great 604 amp and also BLON BL01 (gun) dont hesitate to pair. Surprisingly bl01 driver takes 2w power and basshead level bass…not muddy not bloat but controlled well extended star of the show. Mids are great tube mids and excellent extension. Dont miss out.

My setup…Phone…uapp…tempotec e44 feeding mt604 using 4.4 interconnect…blon bl01 gun with pure copper 4.4 cable (mt604 only loves copper) and final e tips for balanced musical sound.

Tips. Connect e44 first to mt604 before connecting dongle to phone and launch uapp first then connext dongle and authorize to use exclusive use to get full power.

Thanks for reading.

what headphones are you using

i should be able to use the dac from the btr5 if i use the 4.4mm in with a 2.5mm converter, right? If anyone has either i’d appreciate testing, tried googling but couldn’t find much info

Should be possible you’ll just have to look how much voltage it pushes from it’s output (4vis the standard for balanced ) or or if it even has a line out option in the app Menu :wink:

btr5 pushes 2.77vrms outside of the 2.5mm port, i’ll mostly be using the 604 for iems anyway so only supplying 2.77 shouldn’t be an issue, it doesn’t officially have a line out but other people have used the ports as line outs so i guess it does?

Jopp, as long as it won’t overdrive the amp all is fine and if the below 3v are correct you’ll be fine

Question do you gents and ladies turn off your amp ever? How long should I expect the tubes to last?

I ordered new ones for a upgrade but on my home amps I never turn off ever?

I keep my Asgard 3 on, I do turn tubes of all kinds off.

Normally it’s fine to leave solid states amps on all the time. But you’ll want to turn your tube gear off because tubes have a limited life span. Even if the amp is not actively in use, you’re still eating up the usable hours on the tubes when on

very good amp, drives everything with loads of headroom

This amp is magical for IEM’s I used my LETSHOUER EJ07M Kinda Lava and IKKO Obsidian OH10 both were great but the Lava ummmmmm

Approved!

Both the 604 and the 602 harmonize perfectly with ChiFi IEM’s.

Clean, significant stage magnification, clear bass response

P.S.:
The Koss KSC75 also sounds great on the 602 :+1:

Just bought a used Loxjie P20 as well for super cheap mint once I get my Bal XLR in / out be interesting comparison.

Love your XLR adapter that’s sweet

My dude, did any of the tubes you bought for this just make the whole thing sound bigger?

Just picked one of these up and I’m looking to roll!
