I’m running my little 6j1 pre with rocket logo 6ak5 tubes to the Volt+D, which is feeding DIY Sound Group’s Titan 615lx speakers in our HT system. (Please forgive the wire mess—I’ve been adding some elements to this system over the past week and I need to go back and do some wire management. Also, I threw the 6j1 pre into the system while my daughter was taking a nap, so no time to be neat
)
It sounds great. I can’t decide whether I prefer this little pre over the Sainsmart (which you can see sitting on top of the cheap Franklin Audio amp in a wooden box), but it sounds better than I remember. I prefer the 6ak5 tubes to the JAN 5654w tubes I had in it.
