Triangle and Green Dot....What are they?
Thank you all. 
Triangle and Green Dot....What are they?
Thank you.I have an Audio Magic Stealth Digital Mini, and the left socket has the green dot & red outlined triangle. 
TUBES 6922 pinched waist
With my amp (Audion Silver Night MKII), my description of 6922 types would be quite different than that described in Joe's Tube Lore. As Tvad writes, that is one man's comprehensive viewpoint. A valuable one indeed, but not categorically applicabl...

Best of Audiogon Members
Restock,Thank you for the kind comments. I too am so appreciative of the myriad of excellent suggestions from so many members. I think it was Sogood51 who wrote, "if you can hear the sub, it's too loud." What a difference such comments make.There ... 
Audio Aero Prima vs. Resolution Audio Opus 21
Sorry, I meant that it has two sockets, not outlets. I'll never master this language!OK, back to the Prima vs Opus Battle Royal... 
Audio Aero Prima vs. Resolution Audio Opus 21
I bought the AM used, from another A'gon member. What is the second outlet for? Why do they put the little diamond symbol on one of the outlets? Doesn't this sound like a conversation on Star Trek?Thanks, Warren.Howard 
More power for my Duos?
Luke,Thanks for the post. Clearly, everyone hears something different. When I heard the AG's, they seemed to paint with a pretty full brush, as opposed to the sketch to which you referred. I've been wanting to hear the Hyperion's, as they certainl... 
Tube integrated amp less than 12" in depth?
Congratulations, Springbok10. What a great acquisition! 
More power for my Duos?
This may be a dumb question, but if horns are sketchy at reproducing the clarity, transparency and musicality of a recording, then why are they used at every live performance? Or in movie theaters? I'm not asking this as a challenge. I really don'... 
Audio Aero Prima vs. Resolution Audio Opus 21
Warren, Just when you think you've found greatness...and then...POW!The Audio Magic digital mini really opens up the spaciousness of the music. The tones are more resolved, and the instrument separation is more distinct, as well as sounding more c... 
What is PRaT
If you could imagine that music has vowels (air, holography) and consonants (detail, impact), a tendency to accentuate the consonants would translate to a component having better PRaT. As a representation of timing, it can be very deceptive, becau... 
Tubes for pre-amp
If you can find a good pair, the 60s CCa'sare amazing. Problem is finding a good pair. Buy only from a reliable source that offers a warranty. I've had 3 of 4 pairs go bad quickly.The later versions do not sound nearly as good IMO.Good luck,Howard 
What is PRaT
Some components appear to have better PRAT than others because of the aspect of the note that you are hearing. As a drummer, I time the music on the edge of the notes. And I guarantee that you hear/assess PRAT in the same way. If a player opens up...
