MHDT Orchid TUBE ROLLING

Interested in hearing about tube rolling experiences with the Orchid and other MHDT dacs, namely, the specific comparative sonic characteristics of the various 396a, 5670 and other compatible tubes used in the output buffer. My only experience is with the WE396a that Linear Tube Audio installed in my new Orchid.

I just used an Allen wrench.  I don't know which one it was.  It was the one that fit.

I tried the 6sn7 adapter with my stock Orchid and didn't care for it. I think it was grannyring that suggested you need to do some other upgrades for that to be worthwhile.

I tried the 6SN7 with the converter in my Orchid and did not care for it. No experience with the 6922.
