Supratek Tubes and Tube Swappin' for Everybody
In the Chenin, Can I disconnect the power supply from the rest of the preamp and just use the power supply to cook my new Bendix 6106 for a week? I will be away on vacation and was wondering if this was safe to do. I read this thread last night an...

Powers, Thanks for directing me to that thread. It certainly is comprehensive regarding the Bendix. Bob 
Preamp Deal of the Century
I just installed a Bendix 6106 rectifier and Sylvania 6f6g's that I purchased from Andy's Vintage tube service. I was wondering how long do these tubes take to break-in and how they will change upon reaching the point. Bob 
Poor Man's Ferrari?
Sorry to go way off thread but how can the 308 become a horror story. I have long admired those cars. Bob 
Review: Antique Sound Labs Flora EX DT Line Preamplifier Tube preamp
Teajay, Thank you for your kind words. I am happy that you also found these tubes amazing in your system. As you know, I was quite surprised how well they performed in my Supratek Chenin. They completely transformed my listening expectations with ...

Report from Rocky Mountain AudioFest
Rballdude, Just a note about the Apogees. The room needed to be far larger for the planar to create the bass that is possible. I have my rebuilt Scintillas 6 feet from the backwall. In the setup you heard, I agree that the bass was lacking.

The Amber Wave were incredible to look at and listen to! It was like a science project that got out of control. I could only imagine my wife's reaction to these amps if I attempted to bring them into the house. They are about 3-4 feet wide! If you...

I am Teajay's friend who heard the Acapella speakers. I would like to first say that I have never heard these speakers prior to this weekend. My preferences in music are classical and jazz in that order. I thought both of the systems were very goo...

Stiltskin, I was excited until getting beyond your first sentence! Bob

For those of you have gotten off the tube rolling Merry go round, I am just getting on! I am looking for a pair of used Tung Sol Round plates for my Chenin. Right now it is a lot of fun trying different tubes but it is also expensive! If anyone ha... 
Mcintosh 275's or Marantz Model 9's What would you
Marantz 2's are even better than Marantz 9's in many peoples minds but only 40 watts. A pair of 9's are really only a tad better than a pair of 8B's but all of them are very good. Bob
