I have noticed changes in sound when rolling both rectifier and regulator tubes. My Supratek Chenin came with Sovtek 5AR4s, but now I have settled on a Mullard GZ33 as the best for my system. Also I have experimented wth dfferent regulator tubes (Sovtek "5881", NOS Tung-Sol 5881 and Sovtek KT-66) and have settled on the Sovtek KT-66. The combo of the GZ33 and KT-66 is just right for my tastes.
Could tube rectifier make have impact on sound
Hi!
I have Jadis DPMC tube phonostage with EL84 rectifier from Sovtek. I use 4 ECC83/12AX7 in RIIA stage from Mullard 1964 which is in my flavour.
Could I improve sound by changing tube rectifier?
BTW phonostage is heavily modified with Cardas internal wiring, Mundorf Silver/Oil capacitors, TDK volume potentiometer, Vishay Bulk foil resistors in RIIA.
Any experience/thoughts would be much apreciated.
Many Thanks!
