Audio Mirror Tubadour V

I would say 15-25 mins warmup is enough.

@nwres Definitely a case of "more can't hurt".

I tried pairing the GAIA DDC with the Okto DAC8 and that too yielded improvements.

I will just say to my ears each new version of the Tubadour brings a little more detail and soundstage. They are all wonderful sounding but each time Vlad works his magic it brings it up a notch.

Thanks for your perspectives @smallmouthrule and @dhungana. I have been in contact with Vlad who has been very responsive with questions. I am sure I will end up with a Tubadour in the future.

Vlad is a true craftsman and artisan. He doesn’t churn out a stream of different products he simply focuses on what he knows best and makes incremental improvements.

If you get a chance, have a listen to his SET45 creation.
