    Hell of a price - I use my Vali 2+ (and adapter ++) with all my headphones. It is probably the most versatile small amplifier I have. The Piety is very good too, but the Vali 2+ is a sweet spot for amplifiers before you start getting close to the 1K+ amps. Hopefully I'm not overselling how good they are :)

    GLWS!

    Rando creates a new account today, only message on SBAF is a PM asking to buy the Vali 2+.
    result = immediate ban hammer.

    I feel the same way about the 2+ specifically. With a good (not expensive, just good) tube it really shines and IMO was a big enough improvement over the 2 that Schiit could have justified calling it the Vali 3.

    It you missed out on a Piety, Vali 2s like this one + the right tube outclass it, have more power, and are easier and cheaper to get secondhand. My preference for the 2+ is a modern JJ.
