Hi Jonyung, it's a while since anyone's complimented me on my choice in components, you've made me feel like a young man again Lol.
The Eera Tentation is a fantastic CDP, and in a small way emulates the Wadax Ref in being hugely forgiving of poor masterings without giving up on their resolution. I have a whole bunch of career retrospective CD boxsets incl demos etc sourced from lo fi origins, live tracks sourced from cassette tapes, and the Eera makes them all as immersive and musical as possible without covering up their poor provenance.
The Mullard, and Mazda 6DJ8s, are the first tubes in my Nat Utopia pre that haven't gone noisy and so outperform the Voskhod and Reflektor 6N23P ones that I had relied on before, and my GE211s are still going strong, into their 75th year of life.
The Zus? Me and you rate them, everyone else, not so much Lol.
Now, back to our normal programme, and the Wadax Ref...
