Just finished my Kaiju with DC filaments.  Wow very nice sounding amp.  In combination with the BeePre 2 it makes the sweetest music I have ever heard from my system!
Thanks BH for another great kit!

I like the consistent look of the amps. What kind of interconnects are you using between the two amps? Thanks, Best, Stefan

Thanks for the compliments.

The tubes are,
BeePree 2: Linlai Elite 300b
Kaiju: Psvane ACME 300b

As for the question , What kind of interconnects?  I bought them many years ago and have racked my brain trying to remember, but I just can't recall where I got them.

The Kaiju and BeePre pairing is amazing.  I was on a pretty serious upgrade path until I got to that combo.  Been satisfied with the Eros/BeePre/Kaiju/Jager combo since 2017 with no upgrades in sight.

The colors are amazing. I would not have put those together in my head but they really make a stunning combination.

Nicely executed. Your setup 'sounds' like it probably sounds amazing, how about a system shot?
