MHDT Havana

[peteyb]

Just got this baby installed. It sounds a little better than my Moodlab did, still breaking in, only 1 hour old. Have a 1962 GE tube in it, been conjuring up the wallet resources to get a fancier tube like a 396 or a Bendix *shudder*.

Seems to be more musical than other DACs as people have told me...you really get a feel for the instruments not just fancy bold noises and sounds.

And with that, I'll take any questions. MHDT has good service, they took about a day to get back to me and then I got set up. DAC took 4 days to come. Shipped Saturday, came Wednesday. They're turbo fast, it cleared customs in 4 hours luckily enough. There was a powdered Chinese tube in the box, and a '87 GE tube safely inside the well packed Havana...but something crunched the little tube that wasn't as well packed.

What?

[spritzer]

Has it something to do with the penguins?

[Dusty Chalk]

Oh. This is that "sarcasm" that doesn't convey so well on the internet thing, innit?
