Rogue Cronus Magnum Tube Rolling

Hi Bajead ..... $ 212 for the five small tubes, and $ 156 for the Gold Lion quad (both prices including shipping with secure bubble wrap and styrofoam packing.) To my ears, in my room, with my system, it was a very worthwhile investment. The new tubes brought the quality of my Cronus to a whole new level of refinement. Now that I'm thinking about it and actually sitting at my computer keyboard , I can describe the improvement as a more refined texture and tone, with more truthful musical timbre, tighter and deeper bass, an absolutely smooth liquid mid-range, and a sparkling non-fatiguing top end. A truly beautiful sound of music.

Bump Has anyone discovered any favorite NOS tubes
what positions are you rolling to greatest effect ? Does anyone now the tube complement in the Cronus Black?

NOS E80CC for the 12AU7s (L+R) and a NOS Mullard at the center has been my go to setup for some time.

I revived this thread from 2015 because I was looking hard at the Cronos magnum II, I had the deal worked out almost closed, but somebody got it out from under me before I could close the deal, but Que sera sera, it worked out to my advantage because now I have made arrangements to get the Cronos III new with an ARES phono pre-amplifier to follow this purchase. While I won’t have this equipment in my hands for a few extra months I am thrilled with the prospects for my future listening this will be my first full tube system, Except my guitar amplifier’s

 now it’s time for me to play a record. Enjoy the music.
