budget diy tube preamp beating many expensive preamps... problem with my system?


My bottlehead moreplay so far has beaten the ARC ref 5 SE, Allnic L3000 v2 and CJ ET5 (and maybe doge 8). I just don't really get it. Is there something about my system thats limiting the peformance of these other pieces or is moreplay just insanely good ?

yamaha ns5000, waudio power strip, waudio cables,  cheap amazon rca cables, amp is CJ LP70S, dac denafrips terminator.

Don’t underestimate a DIY amp, properly designed and built.

Especially Bottlehead.

Not paying for the distribution network, a fancy box, or the labor to assemble it.
