Misternice, so you are saying that in your best opinion, The Furutech GTX-D Rhodium sounds best on each piece of equipment over the Furutech GTX-D Gold?

Let me ineterate what i am saying here, if there was a supply to last the next 10 years of the Mullard 10m tubes, I would pay the asking price for them, now from what i understand, a good all around transparent 12au7 or 12aux7 tube is the Amprex t...

very Awsome indeed Misternice, I believe, on the most part, The Rhodium GTX-D on tube digital is It from your very useful feed back, I already have the best speed and slam I have had on any system that I have ever owned, so to keep that, and not t...

Rja, Really?,$1,000.00 for a pair, this does not seem feasable,considering If I paid that for the 10m's, I would not be able to find more, and I really do not believe any pair of tubes is worth that kind of money!, cheers.

Misternice, Thankyou for helping me and Tboooe, however, be careful, it's not wise to run a power amp into a power conditioner, your amp will either sound quirky, or get hot from starving from power if it is a high current amp of over 150 watts pe...

Gentleman, the funny thing here is that BOTH the Mullard 10m tubes and CBS 7318 are very incerdibly difficult to find period!, I have spent the better half of all day talking to vendors of tubes, these tubes mentioned here are RARE, cheers.

misternice, I know it may be a pain in the butt, but could you put the cd-player straight into the Rhodium and see what that sounds like then take the Rhodium out of the wall, and then put the Gold in and plug cd-player into the wall with the gold...

Calvinj, congrats on selling your Tara Labs, The one interconnect with chassis ground, $899.00 was a fair price for a discontinued 20 year old cable that does not sound as good as the 2014 Tara Labs The One with HFX grounding station or the ISM on...

Paul79, Now that I think about it, I believe you are spot on with the kind of sound I am looking for, I have listened to some units with the 6SN7 tubes before, The Big tone tube, If the CBS 7318 sounds similiar, that would be a winner for me, I wi...

Hi Paul79, I have heard of the CBS 5814 Hytron tube for the 12Au7 position, However, Ralph of Atmashere audio said that this tube does not always work here, because it requires more power and possibly could harm a unit, so I kind of took that off ...

Interesting misternice, great feed back, please keep it coming, so you have not put a Rhodium GTX-D or Gold GTX-D on the tube cd-player to hear which one sounds best with that position?, can you do that test for me?
