| Tube selection 12AT7 and 12AX7 - preamp I really do not like the JJ tubes in anything i have tried them in. For new i like the gold lion range better. The first thing i did with my Mac gear was toss the JJ's that come stock in them. With all the rebranding going on it’s getting hard ... | |
| Is it possible to bypass the Eversolo Z8 amp? Techincaly every stage has an amp in it, your using the line level amp in the eversolo like any other line output in any source. your not using a speaker level amp out if your using the RCA out (single ended). | |

| Downsizing from tower to bookshelf these are just below your budget in USD. I don't think you'll find a better speaker for a small room like yours, other then a really small stand mount with zero bass. the AudioNotes AN k-J are made to be placed in a corner so it opens up the room ... | |
