MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3?
Oh my! I took all mods listed in this thread and other threads concerning mods to the Orchard, and applied them -all- to a 2hand Stockholm 2 I got for a good price… Installed the Shuguang Treasure CV181Z through an adaptor…..The sound….. is like n...

Great! Thanks for confirming! Does anyone currently use the ShuGuang Treasure vacuum tubes CV181-Z? Did you find anything that betters it? (I have a pair inbound now)
