that’s a sick sick setup mate. looks pretty awesome but I bet it sounds even better. Couldnt help but noticing the elex hanging in the back ground. wondering if you could share your thoughts. I just got my elex last week and looking for a tube/tube hybrid to pair with as I currently don’t have any. I’m relatively new to the scene and just starting to find my feet. I currently got a ifi zen dac v2/zen can stack running fully balanced and also Cavalli LCX also running fully balanced using ifi zen dac v2. though I’ve got a SMSL SU 8 on the way. i’ve been looking for a nice tube /hybrid to pair the elex and was considering the ta-20. what’s your thought on how it sounds with the elex? suggestions ? or do you prefer ta-30 or another tube amp? cheers mate.

ThiligThilig Hows things Bro, I would probably recommend the TA20, mainly because of the balanced out-put. There is also not a whole lotta difference between it and the TA30 form a sound sig perspective, but more reasonably priced. Thats actually a Clear MG Pro but I do have an Elear which are basically the same as Elex. Focals sound pretty good on xDuoo amps, but I just found my sweet spot with the Ampsandsound Kenzie, which finally satisfied that tube craving that I'd had for a while but unable to get from some cheaper hybrids or tube amps. Not sure what your budget is but many here like the Darkvoice 366 ? I've not tried it but do have xduoo TA03 also, which I'm' putting up for sale along with the TA30. I also went through a similar path that your on, and its only been round 2 1/2 years since I started committing more into the hobby. If your smart you'll be happy with that nice set-up of yours and not let you curiosity get the best of you, unless you don't mind spending. If your willing

and have gotten a taste of what the more higher end stuff sounds like, then go for it because like most of us who have that upgraditis disease, its hard to stay satisfied. Buying 2nd hand is also a good option to try, then sell off what you don't like without taking that initial price hit. Heres my amp that replaced 2 xDuoos, what ever direction you choose, do it for yourself and your enjoyment. Cheers!
