| Lifespan of NOS telefunken 12AX7? There has to be a range of useful hours for telefunken tubes somewhere......I just had my hopes up that someone had seen an hour use figure stated by telefunken on an original box or maybe some manufacturers literature. I understand this varies gr... | |
| What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers Thanks for the thoughts guys. I am going to try to make it to a few dealers in the next couple of weeks. | |
| What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers thanks for all the responses guys. I have been reading lots of speaker threads here and B&W just doesn't get mentioned alot. I guess I can understand why now. My friend has the 804 diamond towers. I think they sound good but, I haven't compare... | |
| Need helps with hums, radio station in phono Atmasphere, I agree with you. I need to go through my components and determine which piece was causing the problem. Then I will find a way to properly ground it. I have been using the setup for a week or so everyday like this. Still no fires or sh... | |
| Classe CP-800 & Analog vinyl source with DSP I am really interested in this as well. It is hard to find much first hand user information out there for this unit. I may have to drive to the classe dealer about an hour away to check it out. | |
| E.A.R. 834P vs. Rogue Audio Ares I know this thread is old. I had actually forgotten I posted it. Thought I would bring it back from the dead for an update.After over a year of use, I am very happy with the ares. It is a very quiet tube phono stage. The power source is housed in ... | |

| Need help solving a hum problem I have solved most of the problems I was having this afternoon. I did go to the hardware store and picked up some 16g copper wire to make some ground leads. I have now connected all of my components to the ground lug on my power supply. My phono s... | |
| Need helps with hums, radio station in phono I spoke to peter lederman from soundsmith this afternoon. I learned a new trick from him. New to me atleast. He said to only earth ground one piece of your audio equipment. If your equipment has a 3-prong power cord, get a 3-prong to 2-prong adapt... | |
| Need helps with hums, radio station in phono I was dealing with a similar situation not long ago. I'm not sure if your phono pre-amp is similar to mine but, My phono stage has selectable dip switches that allow you to change your grounding. I had to to change my grounding where only the righ... |
