| Preamp 6922 tube help I am not an expert, but I don't think the Amperex A frames are nearly as good as the earlier halos. I have had particular good luck with 1962 and 1963 Amperex USA with Navy logos. I also have some French Darios made by Amperex that are excellent. | |
| Preamp 6922 tube help Not sure which Amperex you tried, but I found the early 60's 6922/7308 to be the best in my system. Far superior to the later ones. | |
| Need advice about upgrading speakers ( it might be the last one i own). Might the issue be further upstream? | |
| My first tube roll in a Primaluna Dialogue HP Integrated 7316s are Amperex premium 12AU7s. I have some labeled Mullard, but they were manufactured in the Amperex Herleen Holland factory.As good as these 70's Mullards are, most people think the early 60's versions are even better.On the more affordable ... | |

| I've narrowed it down but... I am personally a Marantz fan.Be sure to check www.accessories4less.com for great deals. I have purchased 2 receivers and a blu-ray player from them with perfect results. | |
| New Gallo Strada 2's - need surround advice. I have A'Divas in the rear with my Reference A/Vs up front with no issues. I don't see why the Micros wouldn't work as well. The Dues would be an even better option. I hope to upgrade at some point. | |
| Conrad Johnson CAV 50 It's a keeper. You might need to re-tube. | |
| Tube options for Jolida GE or RCA triple mica blackplate 5751 from the 1950s. | |
