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 too want to bump this thread and thank 213cobra for this suggestion; and to encourage anyone who is looking to roll tubes in their MHDT to consider using the 5670 to 6922 adapter.

I installed the adapter in my Istanbul and rolled in a 1970 Siemens E88CC. Stunning results. Absolutely an improvement over every 5670 I tried. If you’re considering trying this, don’t hesitate! It’s worth it.
