Replacing my Krell FPB 600 amp with a tube amp A little off topic . I converse with an Audiophile that collects the Big vintage JBL’s ( 15” woofers ) . He runs McIntosh tubes and class D bi-amped with active an crossover and DSP. Not my cup of tea , but if done right , really impressive . Also... | |
Getting into Tube Equipment Great discussion, especially the Dynaco stuff . In my youth I had a pair of Dynaco MK III’s powering my JBL Century 100’s . Home built SS pre amp with tone controls . Garrard 40B with Audio Technica cartridge followed by a Pioneer PL -117 . It was... | |
Dynaco A25 -Hard to Believe Good stuff , thanks . I too am interested in the Seas kit (A26). I added the cabinets and upgraded the capacitors and it came to about $1350.00 at Madison. I went with another speaker , but am still really interested in the kit . So as someone al... | |
single driver speakers Dear Otter Water , I had the same question 2 years ago . So I asked around like you did . After some research , I purchased a pair of used Zu Omens . The gentleman I purchased them from went on to buy Voxative and DeVore speakers ( both expensi... | |
When the Power Tubes Run Out You guys are scaring me . I just pulled my GEC KT-66 smoked glass and put them away . And I will only take out my NOS Gold Lion KT-88’s on holidays . So let’s see , I have a shoe box full of SED Winged C’s 6550. Over there , I have new GL, Tung S... | |
What is an excellent power cable? More ramblings . +1 to Mofimadness on the Signal Cable Magic Power Cable. I’m running one on my Schiit Yiggy and I agree with him . On power conditioning Vs distribution , I chose the Richard Gray 600. It has six outlets and a quality cord . It ... | |
What is an excellent power cable? Consider new outlets too. I have the standard 15 amp circuits in my living room . I upgraded the 2 outlets to Hubbell . When I replaced some outlets in other areas of the house , I noticed that the connectors were a cheaply made push in spring ( ... | |
What are the best entry level integrated amps and speakers? I wonder how the Outlaw would sound with a pair of Zu Omen Dirty Weekend’s and a set of Anti-Cables speaker cables ? | |
What is an excellent power cable? Hi , I started with Pangea . Then I went to Silnote Poseidon’s, then on to Analysis Cables . I will be trying Maple Shades Power Cables next . Many manufacturers offer a 30 day trial period . Also allow for some breakin time . I can’t comment on t... | |
New way for audiophiles to die! Shouldn’t this post read “ He’s dead Jim “ now what do we do ? Man I was feeling all literal and the guys (hypothetical at that ) allready dead ! What a let down . I was hoping to read about an electrocution from a fuse installed backwards , or a ... | |
best way to connect pc to dac @audioengr , Steve thanks for the informative posts. I used to think it was just X’s and O’s also , but it’s not . It’s actually complex as you’ve shown . Your comments are very informative and extremely POLITE. I’ve parused your website and it’s ... | |

Preamp under $2,000 used Hi , why don’t you email your question to Don Sachs ? I currently have a Rogue RP-1, and wouldn’t recommend it . Modwright would be nice , but I would have a phone conversation with Mr. Sachs. Even if you don’t buy from him , you will get some sol... | |

Inexpensive Tube Amps Will afterthoughts to my post. Check places like , The Tube Store Parts Express , Madison Sound too. The DIY stuff is cool and at least gives you a better understanding of circuits. I was lucky to be in high school in the early seventies . I took ... |
