    Are v4’s expensive because of audio note components?

    Yeah that's the main reason. I'm not sure if Donald had done any other tweaks between v3 and 4. V4 actually takes a slightly different chassis to accept the new transformers.

    Hence why you can't upgrade a v3 to a v4.

    How is this misinformation @JackDaniels

    390€+shipping with Paypal f&f if someone here wants it. I never bothered to get my contributor status updated even though I've donated couple of times. If I had access I would have listed it here first because I would not even have the amp without sbaf.

    Thank you! I think I'm off the small amp train for now given that my main is the Tyr > RAAL and my secondary system at work is the ZDS > JAR600.

    I think the only piece of gear I'm still really curious about is the Gold Bar these days.

    In my experience, nope. I tried planars when I had a BA, and myself and others who also tried were not impressed.

    Nice looking pair of LCD-4, at a good price, with warranty for a while yet. https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/lcd-4.45264/

    I'm checking out rhythmdevils' modded LCD-4 at the moment and, well, they're glorious, probably the best headphones I've heard (not that I've heard everything, far from it). I'll post full impressions in RD's modded headphones thread soon.

    @JeremiahS, my 307a Balancing Act drives planars really well. It does a good job with my HE-500. Max volume output averages 106 db and peaks around 115 with a mic at ear distance.

    I also paid $2250 shipped for my BA with nine tubes - one 6SN7 and four pairs of 307a.
