I'm really really ill, to the point of dropping out of school instead of graduating earlier this year to get shock therapy 16 times. I sit in bed and listen to music all day because of it. I went from listening with 10 dollar headphones to having an (extremely) early game set up that i can use in bed. I was helped with each of these purchases. Like, on the advice sub I literally listed the things I like in music and someone told me to get s12's. They're my favorite and fit everything I said. People give real suggestions, not just the most expensive

My budget is under 500 dollars and idk how people know so much about that when they have 5k dollar setups. Knowing so much is very helpful to beginners. I just got the dac and people steered me away from a 200 dollar dac for an even better 60 dollar one and I doubt anyone else here has an dac under 100. Yall just know you're shit

You can downvote me for the scuffed setup, but I want you people to know the experience has been amazing. There are very knowledgeable people here.

One more thing: if that tube is as big as it looks and gets hot, I would advise against keeping it on a bed like that or surrounded by cloth and stuff.

i really do hope you get better, i know how it feels to spend hours in bed just listening to music because of mental illness. good coping mechanism! as far as your setup, i’m not experienced enough to share my opinion but the s12’s are nice! i personally chose the diokos but i might snag the s12’s in the future:0

What's that big tube-lookin' thing?

Firstly, I really hope you feel better soon. I have loved ones that struggle with mental health and I think anyone who is sane is also struggling. I am sure it is not the same as what you are going through. The world isn’t making it easy for anyone but the hateful right now. But I’ve got the same question. That is a huge tube relative to the rest of the amp and I am curious about the power supply. Any brand? Do you know what tube that is.

It's a cheap amp with an ungodly amount of harmonic distortion. Before I had that nobsound amp with two tubes and someone here told me to return it because there would barely be any good distortion. It's the one thing not directly recommended to me, but I like it so much better

Take your time to feel better and enjoy music… and please be careful with devices that get hot in bed.
