How are you using your Virtue amp?
« on: 26 Aug 2010, 07:02 pm »
Curious to see what kind of systems you're using these in. My new M901 is the heart of my Desk-Fi system. I'm using a Little DOT Dac I, Krix Equinox speakers, and playing mostly AIFF files via Pure Music/iTunes. So far it's sounding good. Still breaking in on the most basic power supply - I'm sure things will jump up in quality when I add the battery PSU.

Interconnects are the weak link now. I'm thinking of trying Anti-Cables.

I am using my Piano M1/Virtue One to power several balanced headphones:  AKG K1000, K501, K340, Sony SA-5000.  When not using the Piano, I stream music to the Virtue One through my Squeezebox via my magiDAC. 

I will soon be replacing my Virtue One Classic with a new Virtue 2.2 with battery power.   

This combination of components has proven to be a stunning balanced headphone driving source.

Patio system, to power some Polk Sat 30's with a Sub 10.  I've got the best sounding back porch on the block!
