Great to hear. The ET3SE is a great unit.Rubicon15 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 20, 2021 7:47 pm I received the ET3SE Friday. It is definitely in mint condition. I installed a new Gold Lion 6922 tube. CJ recommended the GL as an upgrade. I remove my Bryson BP6 and hooked up the ET3SE. All I can say is WOW… What a difference! Even with the new tube, the ET3SE delivers that classic CJ laid back/tube sound that is clearly sonically superior compared to the Bryston.
I am streaming music using a Bryston BDP. I’m also still using a Bryston BDA -2 DAC. Now I’m thinking about upgrading my DAC in the future. Any thoughts regarding DACs that pair well with CJ? Bryston’s BDA 3.14 DAC is class A and incorporates a streamer.
As for DAC recommendations, there are tons to choose from. Roberto and I have recently bought Holo Audio May DAC's and we both seem to be very happy with them. But of course there are literally 100's on the market to choose from. If interested, here is the topic on that particular DAC: https://www.conradjohnsonowners.com/vie ... php?t=2179
