MHDT Orchid TUBE ROLLING

Interested in hearing about tube rolling experiences with the Orchid and other MHDT dacs, namely, the specific comparative sonic characteristics of the various 396a, 5670 and other compatible tubes used in the output buffer. My only experience is with the WE396a that Linear Tube Audio installed in my new Orchid.

Anyone have a link to a high quality 5670 to 6922 adapter?

RE: the link you provided.  According to the description, it's for a device that already uses a 6992. However, the adapter pins need to be for a 5670 device (i.e. Orchid), and the adapter top accept a 6992.

He asked for 5670 to 6922 which is what I gave him, I didn't see the reverse on their website; that aside here is a link that grannyring posted short while ago under the MHDT Orchid vs Amber 3 Forum for a site that he said his buddy found the adapter at for his Orchid
