Has anyone used the Crack to drive a pair of Beyer T1s or T90s?  How's the pairing?  Recommendations for tubes?

Cheers

I dont own those Tesla tech. Beyers but Crack works well with all my hi impedance phones, including my 120 ohm AKG's.  I have Beyer 880's and 990's, both 250 ohm and they are fantastic.  I see no reason why it wont be a great match with the  T1's or T90's.  There is/was atleast one member here with T1's.  Try a search in this forum.
 
I have a pair of Revox RH 310, an OEM version of the old Beyer DT 220 from the seventies, and they sound perfect with the Crack!
 
I'm not a huge fan of the T1s, but they sounded as good or better out of the Crack compared to any other amp I tried them with.

Best regards,

I do have Tesla T1 hooked on a Crack for at least 18 months and I have absolutely no regrets. I used to have a pair of Grado SR225 that we now use for the girlfriend when she wants to watch TV on her own.

I use a 6AS7G "built in Germany" and a 5963. I have like 20 other tubes to try and I think I'll just wait for the actual set up to blow; it is just so good and enjoyable, I don't want to interrupt a good thing!

 
I am currently using the T70 with my stock Crack, still waiting on my speedball but initial impressions are good, some of the treble can be a bit harsh on some tracks but that seems to be expected. Good amount of bass as well.
