    21:45 FYI the Riviera AIC10 is not a solid state amp. It has a 12au7 tube.

      It’s hybrid. So technically it’s solid state with a tube input stage.

    Expanse and Stealth are pretty neutral, but I found they both sounded really good on the 465. Ashame it takes that level of an amp to get the most out of it. Looking to try E3 and Stealth to compare.

  • @rogerhuston8287
    @rogerhuston8287 4 місяці тому +2

    Interesting, I thought the 465 was so obviously a step up over every other amp, even at Canjam and even at walking around with different headphones. BTW, love the StormTrooper version of the Tungsten.

    • @MidFiGuy
      @MidFiGuy  4 місяці тому

      Ah wish I could've heard the difference. I was listening to the 465 at peak foot traffic time so had noise all around me. Wanted to give it a fair impression with a quieter environment.

      @@MidFiGuy - Yea, for me I compared it against the Bliss and HM-1, listened to both, then walked over to Masuda-san, and to me, even with Sus in a loud enviornment everything was better. I tried the Stealths as well, and it was clearly the best I've ever heard it. I would say it is on level with the AIC-10 as far as sound and the best SS I've heard by far. As a tube guy at heart, this amp gives me enough of the tube fullness, that I'm not sure I need a tube amp anymore.

      You got it! I've been slacking because I felt like I found my endgame and gave the channel a rest. But like always, trying out new equipment at Canjam makes me interested in newer gear 😭

      Lots of indie synth and lately blues & folk. When I go for classical I switch to the Calderas. Love the smooth delivery of the Empy OG's but when I crave clarity I tend to change headphones.
