Toss in my vote for Schiit Freya +. Has three setting to choose from. Straight through, JFET buffer (not sure what this is technology wise), and a tube stage. Volume is a 128-step relay-switched stepped attenuator with remote. I have this and have had fun with tube rolling. Right now have sylvannia bad boys in gain stage and stock tungsols in the input stage. Great 3d wide soundstage tight bass. Would love to find some nos telafunken’s that are not 500 per tube but the search is part of the game that this hobby’s quest is. Like crossing the bridge of death in the search for the Holy grail!
