| 12au7 tube? @thecarpathian a d just as I thought I had the perfect tube you come up with the RCA’s… :-) | |
| 12au7 tube? Best combination has turned out to be Melz 1587 and La Radiotechnique 12AU7WA. The perfect combination of air, details, natural sound (and never edgy or dull) and a soundstage that is unbelievably awesome! | |
| This Might Not Exist, Any reasonably priced, smaller speakers with 100db Sensitivity? Closest to what you’re describing. 3.5w goes much further than you might think… https://www.zuaudio.com/loudspeakers/p/mb1 | |
| 12au7 tube? I'm also going to test different 6sn7's. I already have a pair of Sylvania 6SN7GTB Chrome Tops and I'm getting a pair of Melz 1578's (which likely will take quite some time to arrive since they're coming from Ukraine). They're kind of on two diffe... | |

| 12au7 tube? @marco1 The Radiotechnique's are likely made by Mazda... | |
| 12au7 tube? Thanks everyone. I have a bunch of tubes incoming. Radiotechnique, Genalex Gold Lion, Brimar, Amperex. | |
| a 3 way design speaker with the ESS Heil type sound It does indeed exist: https://pureaudioproject.com/trio10-heil-amt-open-baffle-speakers/ | |
| 12au7 tube? I used Genalex Gold Lion in my previous preamp, so maybe those will tested. And the PSVANE are not overly expensive either, so I might as well toss them into the mix Greatly appreciate all the advice and knowledge!!! | |
| 12au7 tube? @mulveling I don't know about that assessment as the 12AU7 is used in the pre section of the integrated amp... you definitely need to it t be quite or you will amplify it | |
