Kavent S33 owners...are you out there?

Hi Wolf

After reading your response above about hooking up my headphones to the balanced outputs of the S33 directly I had one of those what the hell was I thinking moments. The K701s aren't amplified and they would definitely need more than a signal to sound good.

Thanks for the help. You saved me a lot of unnecessary connecting & re-connecting of gear along with frustration. I can go back now to listening to music.

Looks like it is still just you and me with the Kavent S33. No owners old or new of either the Vincent SA-93 or S33 have come forward. Maybe they are all sitting back and relaxing.

Yeah...S33 owners are too hip for forums as they know this stuff is so good they're DONE! Hey...I still recommend that el cheapo BravoV2 headphone amp...the dude in China sent me a replacement power supply (original one died) free in just 5 days total. I've been using it more recently and man...it's just so sweet with my trusty Grado 60's I stay up WAY too late listening to stuff.

Kavent S-22/P-2200 here. I started with Vincent and then move to Kavent because I had the amazing opportunity to get the P-2200 monoblocks. To my surprise, I found the matching preamp when I venture to contact Kavent a few months ago. Now I am in the process of auditioning XLRs cables, since I was blown away with Holograms II (mono) that I configure to use a pair for each monoblock/speaker. Any suggestions?

P.S. I am actually selling my Vincent preamp Sa-T1(new tubes) and SP-331 hybrid amp. THANKS

I'm using Audioquest Diamondbacks with the S33...work great for an inexpensive XLR (and they're Chinese made so they can speak the same language)...I'm looking around for a used Audioquest "DBS" XLR pair just to try 'em. So now we're up to 3 Kaventophiles...or 4 if you count "musikavent".

Kavent S11/S22/P2200 owner here! Wish I have the S33, but couldn't pass up the change to own a mint S22 for $320! I think I am kind of the "done" side to my amp/preamp for a while. Keeping both preamps as well!

Oh yeah, and I also use Shengya rebadge of the vincent CD-S6MK in balanced mode.
