what am I not getting about the FF85WK

I've been running FF85WKs in desk top scenario at home and work for a couple of years now with Topping TP30 - plenty of power for the particular application, and the USB input is totally OK. Does its DAC sound as good as that in the PURE 120 Doc - maybe? Do I fret over what I might be missing? Not any more - there are far more important things to worry about - health of family and friends, for starters.
 
Is that the presence of our much missed friend that I see?

Welcome back Dave! 🙂

Indeed


Nearly five months! I hope you are doing well, Dave!

Personally, I'm a digital amp fan... tho I have an expensive tube amp/preamp combo sitting unused (Cary Audio SLA70mkII and SLP-94).

Yup, 5 days short of 5 full months - months away from anything approaching his old mobility / stamina.

While none of my tube gear is of the same prestige as yours, I couldn't agree more - digital has so much to offer at often stupidly low prices. How much does a complete re-tubing of your Cary set you back?
 
I just got a pair of these that Dave has applied the Enable process to and I am very impressed. But have a question about the dust cap and that ridge across it. Should it be vertical, horizontal or at a diagonal ?
