| Problems with Siemens CCa 6922 tubes? I've written to Audion about this issue. Thank you for the heads up. | |
| Problems with Siemens CCa 6922 tubes? Wow, Albert, that is very nice of you to offer. I'd love to try them out. I'll write you directly. | |
| Cable recommendation for Soliloquy 6.3's? FWIW, I used the AP Silver Oval speaker cables with my 6.2's, and found them to be excellent. Soliloquy told me that they us AP wiring internally. | |
| Problems with Siemens CCa 6922 tubes? Thank you both for the feedback. My amp is an Audion Silver Night MKII, a 7W SET amp. I've purchased the Siemens from two different sources, and the second source that I've used is honoring the warranty and replacing the tubes.This amp is self-bia... | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? Among scientists and laymen alike, there are those who make discoveries that explode universal beliefs, while others spend every breath to cement 'unquestionable truths'. To those who have stopped questioning, I ask, "What happened?" Because none ... | |
| Best Source for Replacement/Upgrade Tubes?? Every tube I've purchased off eBay has been bad. And one pair of very expensive tubes that I purchased here went bad inside of two weeks. FWIW, I only go with the bigger suppliers now. Among them:www.partsconnexion.comwww.tubestore.comwww.tubedepo... | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? To anyone who claims that I'm hearing only what I want to hear, I assure you that this is not the case. Because what I really want to hear is a $59.95 boombox that sounds like my $9K stereo. And I want my $800 power cord to sound the same as the $... | |
| Music for the spirit and the soul I nearly forgot. This is more of a vocals record, but you cannot hear the voice of Virginia Rodrigues (on 'Sol Negro') and not be moved to the core. An astounding Brazilian singer. | |
| Floorstanders for small rooms? Budget $1200 used Chiho,The 6.3's will not overpower your room. I'm using a speaker that goes down to 25Hz, and on the width side of the room. As long as the bass is tight and controlled (which the Soliloquy is), you will not have any problem IMO.I was not as impre... | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? Eldartford,Of course you should believe him. Didn't you see the "Buena Vista Kennel Club"? I distinctly remember hearing that pup scat off of Ry Cooder's guitar picking. I really think your friend is being too modest about his furry friend's list ... | |
| Argh Too Many Choices Max,There's always a trade off. Or, perhaps there isn't, and I just haven't found the one amplifier that will convey the room in which Chet Baker is playing while also having the ability to drive Metallica in the way I like to hear it. Of course, ... | |
| Floorstanders for small rooms? Budget $1200 used I've owned both the Soliloquy 5.3 and the 6.2 floorstanders.Both are excellent speakers, and mate well with ANY amp,even in a small room. The only thing I found was that in a small room, I preferred single speaker cable (vs. bi-wire), which tended... | |
| Copper vs. Silver interconnects Mike,Thank you for sending along the copper prototypes. I've been listening to them all week. They are wonderful in our SET/horn system. They are just a hair less lively than the silver cables, but they are more emotional. In fact, I've been broug... | |
| Music for the spirit and the soul El Cancionero de Medinaceli1535-1595Hesperion XXJordi SavallJust bought this one as well. It is described on the CD cover as the music of Philip II of Spain, which is quite varied stylistically. What an uplifting CD!It just never ends... | |
| Argh Too Many Choices I second Jax2's comment about the Mono 10 push/pull triodes. They have a midrange that approaches that of SET amps, but have considerably more bass response than any of the Wright SET offerings. And the sense of timing of the Mono 10's is extraord... |
