| Under my tower speakers -- Isoacoustics Gaia, other options? @hilde45 I'm happy with my Gaia II's (under my 76lbs Teckton 2-10's). They brought a small but noticeable improvement, which once experienced would be impossible to live without. The wood floor in my listening room behaves like a diaphragm bobb... | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change @immatthewj My original (brand new) tubes are only a year old. I'm not an expert on tubes but I'd venture to say they're pretty close to "peak" after 500 hours of burn in. I believe I just got a bad one from Psvane that red plated on me. | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change @thecarpathian That's a good question. CryoTone removes the original branding from the tube and replaces it with their label. My thinking is if they're providing top quality tubes they would want everyone to know about that. My guess is they're ... | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change Four EL34's arrived on my doorstep yesterday morning. Christmas came early this year. Based on many people's comments on this thread, describing their experience of cryogenic tubes as a waste of money, clever advertising, and providing no measura... | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change @tomcy6 Prior to posting I ran a search on the discussion board. Most of the comments were quite old. I was hoping to garner more up to date info. That said, there were a few interesting questions/comments I ran across and I've forwarded these to... | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change @woodsage Thanks for the input. CryoTone tubes come recommended by Decware so I thought I'd give them a shot. I've got a Decware 25th anniversary Zen amp on order and figured I try them out on my R8 before the Zen arrives. I spoke with the owner o... | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change I'll let you know my impressions once they're in my system, hopefully this weekend. Whatever it is you guys do during the day, you should quit right now and take your act on the road. You're hilarious. I was really hoping to hear a few thought... | |
| Zavfino OCC SILVER DART 1.5 power cable Count me in as a fan of Zavfino. I'm currently enjoying their interconnects in my system. I'm one of those souls who suffers from a lack of "sensory gating", meaning I am easily distracted by sounds most people won't ever register in their aware... | |
| Best value Set amp for under $1500 used is ok. I have a Willsenton R8 and can attest to its attributes. Great tube qualities of bloom and holographic sound staging, and surprisingly fast tight bass. Highly recommend. That said I imagine their 300B is glorious. I was a little hesitant to bu... | |
| What selections do you play when showing off your system to others? Blown Away - Sivert Hoyem Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word - Lydia Gray Silver - Rising Appalachia On’n’On-Ruined by Rick Rubin - Justice Momma Sed - Puscifer Limit to Your Love - James Blake | |
| Any song recommendations for testing purposes? Lots of detail to be found in here… Right now I’m listening to Stardust by Desert Dwellers, which is both atmospheric and detailed. | |
| Pearl Acoustics Sibelius Speakers I'm also curious. (2) amps - Willsenton R8 and Decware Zen 25th anniversary. | |
| Choice between two different integrated tube amps (SET & PP) I’m running my R8 with the upgraded tube package through a pair of Tekton Perfect SET 2-10’s. I’ve had the same setup for about a year now and it’s still getting better. Music sounds more... liquid, engaging, and fills out my listen room better th... | |
| Devore or Audio Note or other sensitive speakers: wanting to listen in Denver Hello Hilde45, You requested we DM you if interested. Silly question, but how do we DM folks here? | |
| Need help buying new speaker cable I'm very happy with my SilverSmith Fidelium cables. |
