Perhaps try a warmer input tube?
Hey Florida Boy,

It's only sources via this new DAC that sound a tad too forward for me. All else is great. However, I like your idea. Right now my SLP98 pre is running my prized 1960s Sylvania 6SN7 Black plates, matched quad set. My V12R amp is running 1960s Sylvania EL84s and Sylvana 12BZ7 inputs in front. I do have one set of RCA EL84s I could try.

Any recommendations on a more laid back set up front for pre or amp?
