So around 2-3 weeks ago I ordered a pair of MH Tungsten. Call me an idiot as it was a complete blind buy but the hype around them is kinda real. A 1499-1999$ pair that rivals headphones double its price sound promising, only issue is you need a nuclear reactor to power them.
Did anyone here order a pair too and already received it?
Mind to give a short „review“?
It’s potentially tricky because of the voltage and gain requirements. For example, some report even the Bliss with 12 Watts at 32 Ohms and Spring 3 (5.8 vrms) sounds soft and lacks headroom partially due to insufficient gain (amp lacks a high gain mode), which my ears tend to agree with.
Luckily though, my dac has a pre-amp putting out a max 11.6 vrms, which the Bliss hungrily accepts, providing a much different experience - greater dynamics, better low end etc. A number of Tungsten owners report wildy varying impressions listening to the same amps (Oor, CA3, Mjolnir 3). I’m guessing this is likely due to differences in the input voltage received from their dacs.
