sure - i've own both myth LDR and first watt F3 clone and it's a combo capable of outstanding results, transparency & clarity married with a class A warmth (though these days i use my 10Y SET amp more often). pretty much the same with restored krell KSA-50 - myth is completely insensitive to any source or power amp imp issues due to buffers. myth/F3 combo was 3 ohm into 10k, and furthermore my DAC (i used at time) had 2.7k so actually it was 2.7k -> 3ohm ->10k.
so, be sure to explore the appropriate buffers if you go DIY route.
