    How long have you been running the Jot for? Are you running the V2 with the stock tubes or other?

    About 3 days on pink noise. Stock tubes. Will post a longer comparison in the jot thread. Strong amp with auteur

    Hmm, I love my Val2, but the Jot2 has such a wider, bigger stage, and clarity and layering.

    Maybe I need new tubes. Also need to go back & listen to Val2 again, now I'm used to Jot2 & 3F+Ni.

    Agreed on layering, wide soundstage & clarity. I just like the bit of tube sweetness the Val 2 adds, especially with the HD6xxx, but also need more time with the Jot 2.

    Yeah I'm using HD6xx KISS modded. But I've been off Val 2 for a couple of weeks at this point.

    I know when I first compared it to the 3F it seemed much more laid back, and veiled. But I haven't compared it since the Jot 2 showed up on Thursday or Friday last.
