| What is your favorite tube type? @ebm I just picked up a pair of Mazda 1960's vintage halo gutter 7308s. These things are the bomb! Just glorious sounding tubes. Much better than my previous Telefunken E88CCs. I haven't tried the Amperex 6922s yet. Generally, I have not bee... | |
| What is your favorite tube type? This is a hard question, because tubes standing alone don't make any sound unless you drop them on the floor and the glass breaks. Even if you limit the discussion to optimally implemented power tubes and limit the discussion to only top tier tub... | |
| Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund @rauliruegas "our hobby is all about MUSIC."Exactly! I suspect if we sat together in a room listening to a piece of music we would have similar reactions to what we heard. I think that most of what remains between us is due to language differenc... | |
| SET amplifier recommendation I own a Dynamo MK I, which uses EL34s, but delivers similar power to the MK III using 300B's. It is not up to driving my 92.5 dB efficient Coincident SVII speakers. I can't imagine that you are going to be able to appreciate the SET magic drivi... | |
| Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund @rauliruegas I may not be following your line of reasoning correctly. If I am missing your point, I apologize. Consider the music of Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page. These two individuals, by almost unanimous consent, are two of the greatest guit... | |
| Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund "enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS." Friends, Raul has said a lot with that statement. Forgive me, but I've been down an epistemological rabbit hole for the last couple of years with respect to in home reproduction of music. So I am going to ch... | |
| Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund @cal3713 , thanks for the update on your journey through the amplifier jungle. Pretty fascinating stuff. I am a little surprised that the F4 clones ended up on the top of the heap. I've had an itch to try one of the Pass or First Watt amps mys... | |
| Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund @cal3713, I am happy to hear you found the right cap for your PREs. Having had the pleasure of a long audition of the PREs, I can well imagine that the Accutons could be a bit on the aggressive side depending on other system components, the room,... | |
| Help ! Len, you are breaking my heart. The value of your collection goes well beyond the value of the actual discs. You have superb taste in music, my friend! I can't count the outstanding recommendations you have given me (mostly without knowing it)... | |
| Manley snapper vs Atma-sphere M60 I've owned M-60 for 2-3 years and I love them. They may well be the last amps I buy. I've heard Snappers only once, and not in my system, but I don't think they are in the same league with M-60's. One caution however, is that the M-60's don't ... | |
| Just purchased a pair of Atma Sphere M-60 Mk 3's upgraded to 3.3's @gdnrbob, My speakers are Coincident Super Victory II and my pre is a Coincident CSL. The source is a ModWright Sony HAPZ1. The room is well treated, and I would say it is not overly bright. It is important for the OP to just insert the amps into... | |
| Just purchased a pair of Atma Sphere M-60 Mk 3's upgraded to 3.3's @clio09 From the M-60 MK3.3 manual."Install the tubes in their sockets. The middle four sockets take the 6SN7GT driver tube (if using NOS 6SN7s, the front location should have either a -GTA or -GTB suffix)."I currently am using an NOS GE GTA tube... | |
| Just purchased a pair of Atma Sphere M-60 Mk 3's upgraded to 3.3's kjack48230, While you are waiting, I thought I'd offer a few additional comments since they may be relevant to layout of your listening room when you have the M-60's. If you have talked to Ralph, you probably already know most of this. First of ... | |
| Where are Conicident Speaker Technology electronics made ? bigkidz, Excellent question. My comment related only to the quality of workmanship, since that is the heart of the question with respect to Chinese assembly. My comment is not a commentary on the design or parts selection. Point to point wiri... | |
| Where are Conicident Speaker Technology electronics made ? I think we are wandering a bit, but I think the comments from Charles and Mikirob warrant a response. I have also become an infrequent contributor, but for the most part, that is not due to an increase in negativity on the boards. Some of that s... |
