| Bigger drivers = bigger soundstage Smaller drivers with similar bass extension have lover sensitivity.Lover sensitivity drivers have more thermal distortion and compression. You can do nothing against laws of physic. | |
| A question for 45 SET experienced listeners I don’t understand why some digners use 12AX7 to drive any ouput tube in SET amplifier. I also don’t think that 6SN7 is a good driver for 300b.In my 300b amp 6F6g in triod mode is used as driver.And it doesn't sound slow at all. Coincidence Franke... | |
| Chord Qutest + MScaler I improved the SQ of Qutest significantly when I changed BNC digital socket to Audio Note silver RCA and started using NBS Signature cable. I also removed the original brass RCA output socket from Cary CD player (used as transport). Thank a lot t... | |
| Chord Qutest + MScaler Have anyone tried Sbooster with Qutest?I have a horrible experience with 2qute and a MCRU power supply. The sound was so odd and ringing like a glass. I sold the MCRU power supply on EBay but I lost 70% the of prise. | |

| V-Cap ODAM: What the Future Sounds Like Hi @c_avila1 ,After discussion with @zipost, I decided to go to V-Cap CuTF 0.22uF 600 volt capacitorI was waiting a parcel arrived for almost a month. My integrated amp has 3 stages of amplification: 6sn7-6f6g-300B.There is Duelund Custom Cu 0.1uF... | |
| Acoustic Sounds Series Analogue Productions has been reissuing many of the RCA Living Stereo titles. I have a hybrid SACD of Scheherazade and it’s down right fantastic given that it was recorded in the late 1950’s.I have hybrid SACD of Scheherazade and listen it on CD. ... | |

| Considering getting a CD player (again). Used? New? Criteria? I use Cary 303 CD player from 2001 as transport. The retail price of Cary was $3500 back in that days.It is interesting how do these modern affordable transports like Audiolab, Emotiva sound compared old Hi-End CD players from 90x-2000x?Regards,Alex | |
| V-Cap ODAM: What the Future Sounds Like I decided to send my pair of V-cap ODAM capacitors back to Hificollective for replacement.One capacitor has a perfect measurements, but other one has internal parasitic impedance 1Ohm that cause a very high active to reactive impedance ratio on hi... | |
| V-Cap ODAM: What the Future Sounds Like Hi @c_avila1 ,I installed ODAM 0.22uF into my 300B SET between drivers 6F6G in triode mode and 300B. ODAM are bypassed by Duelund Cu-Sn 0.01uF bypass capacitors.I used Duelund Custom Cu before ODAM on this position.I used the same Duelund Cu-Sn 0.... | |
| V-Cap ODAM: What the Future Sounds Like Just bought a matched pair of V-Cap ODAM 0.22uF on Hificollective.I measured them using my LCR meter DE-5000.These two capacitors have very different APO On high frequencies.The first capacitor has:100KHz - APO=0.01510KHz - APO=0.0001KHz - APO=0.0... | |
| Super tweeter for FullRange Driver I don't think this tweeters have enough sensitivity (93dB) for Omega Super 3 high output monitors (97.5dB).I use Fostex T90A and it is incredibly good. Very detailed, natural and smooth. |
