    So much so that I might build my primary rig around it. Sight's mostly set on BF2/Jot2.. but worried about this combo being too warm butt. Anyone spent time with the combo and have thoughts? Not much I care to change about the Elex sound.. maybe a very slightly dark tilt above 2K.. but nothing major. More concerned with a rig that's going to goose up the mid bass and make everything sound too warm/forward.

    If you go BF2, might try the SW51+

    I've had the SW51+ about as long as I've had the Elex.. combo has definite synergy in a number of areas. SW51+ & Elex is wonderful from a tonal perspective, but I find bass quality lacking. Also, the stage narrows enough to where it's bothersome.
    Ultimately, I think I prefer Elex driven by amps with <5 ohm OI.

    More curious about a DAC that synergizes with the Jot2 & Elex than the amp.

    Are there any such things too warm for Elex? lol I always thought they often crossed my "northern" borderline of comfortable zone.

    BF2 > DSHA3F > Elex was one of the sweet spots I've ever experienced. J2 not much different from 3F in tonality/brightness. And I never thought that combo warm or dark.
