Atma-Sphere in CO? @atmasphere Also, if I'm reading your post correctly, that means that my RCA 6SN7GT VT-231s won't actually work in the amp. Right? I don't think I actually have any GTA or Bs, unfortunately. | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? @atmasphere Thanks so much for the information Ralph. Given that the amps were local and came with a 45-day return period, I didn't even investigate what version of Mk3s they were. Definitely the more recent wide chassis version though. @browns... | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? @atmasphere Thanks so much Ralph. Given the proximity (on my daily commute route) and 45 day trial period, I honestly just bought the amps without even finding out which version they are. And now they've got the ad down, so I can't check. My vi... | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? @brownsfan btw, any word on which of those 6SN7s are most critical? I think I have enough pairs of decent ones to replace the stock drivers, but only one pair of those smoked glass RCAs. | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? @tomic601 Thanks for the heads up. I sent an e-mail yesterday and just got my invoice today. Can’t go wrong with a 45-day 100% refund trial period. Very curious to hear how they compare. And @brownsfan I do happen to have a pair of old smoked glas... | |
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. @charles1dad Hi Charles, I still have my Coincident PREs... I just came to the conclusion that they prefer tubes (at least up top for the tweeter & midrange). Perhaps not surprising given that Isreal doesn't make any SS amps. I tried bi-am... | |
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. I put my 3400 up for sale (along with my Coincident SEIIIs) if anyone is interested... | |
Amp for Coincident Super Eclipse I loved these speakers so much that I upgraded to Coincident's PREs. My old SEIIIs are now up for sale. Previously owned by professional reviewer Sue Kraft (TAS, TAB) who upgraded the crossovers. Happy to take questions off-thread if anyone is ... | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? @tomic601 Great news. Thanks. | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? That's good to hear Ralph, thanks. | |
Atma-Sphere in CO? @brownsfan Thanks so much for the information... super useful. Will probably also demo a Pass XA-25, that's at least easy to get in the room for a 30 day demo and I'd love to be able to just leave the stereo on all day without concern for tube life. | |
Integrated amp + DAC + room correction all-in-one for Nola Boxer 1 + REL R328 sub True. Only usb or standard digital inputs on the 2170. | |
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. @essrand I'm very curious too. Although to be fair, I already know that the Franks don't provide enough gas for the coincident pres. I will most definitely, however, try a bi-amp configuration with the Franks driving the head units and the Lyngdo... | |
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. I'll actually be curious whether wifi ends up having better signal quality. I know some manufacturers are recommending putting a network switch with a linear power supply and a special grounding wire in front of the last Ethernet that goes into an... | |
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. @uberwaltz Yes, I've got it hardwired (although it can also connect via wifi) and have been exclusively using the upnp input. I stream tidal using bubbleupnp via my phone and an Android tablet. So far, everything has worked perfectly. It automatic... |
