| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,Just goes to show that no product ever gets complete unanimous positive opinions/impressions. Variables and individual ears won't allow it to be. Sorry they didn't work out for you as they have for most of us posting here. I know I've rav... | |
| Is the Almarro 318B For Me?Any Others? Out of pure curiosity I'd love to hear a direct A/B comparison of the Yamaha and Almarro amplifiers. In terms of topology, company philosophy and design, they are strikingly different. How different would they actually sound? This would be fun and... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre John,Sorry about my response to you. I thought your comment" he's a fan of too many things" was in reference to Robert of Star Sound rather than C. Perry. My apology. | |
| How important is bass to you? Tostadosunidos,In my area Ifrequently visit jazz clubs that rarely boost or reinforce the sound. It is a pure acoustic sound. The stand up double bass has a beautiful tone, bloom and warmth. Actually a number of speakers/home systems add more bass... | |
| Is it possible to adapt kt88 to a 6A3 single ended You didn't answer my question. Any how, if you do proceed with this amplifier project, let us know your result.Charles, | |
| Is it possible to adapt kt88 to a 6A3 single ended Hi Realdeal,Could you point out Al's lack of technical acumen based on his reply explanations? I would say his comments have been very factual regarding the differences between the 2 output tubes under discussion. Where did Al go wrong? Thanks.Cha... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Hi John (Roxy54),I've found Robert to be very candid about his product's hierarchy. I was very pleased with using their basic brass Audio Points. He said the Apprentice is a clear step upwards and he was right. I believe it simply becomes a matter... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes The Elrogs in my amplifier are a smashing success. This solidifies my decision to keep these amplifiers the rest of my life. A premium 300b tube in an excellent designed /implemented amplifier just hit the right spot for my needs. Its has been 6 y... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,If it turns out that you like the Elrogs in your DAC then it's money well spent. These tubes are expensive.However operating in a DAC circuit should mean low tube stress and very long life. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,In my case the Elrogs were very good straight out of the box( and just continued to improve). I'd say broken in by 40 to 50 hours. I use them in a power amplifier and you have them in a DAC, not sure if that is a factor. | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Andrew,Have you discussed with Robert the differences between the Rhythm and Backstage as platforms for your speakers?I haven't spoken to Robert in some time but I know he's quite proud of the Backstage as a supreme product. Perhaps the Rhythm com... | |
| Is it possible to adapt kt88 to a 6A3 single ended Hi Realdeal,Al's very thorough and thoughtful response is based purely on technical considerations. I feel he is giving you very wise advice, if you want to proceed with this experiment of course you are free to do so. In my opinion these two tube... | |
| Is it possible to adapt kt88 to a 6A3 single ended A word to the wise is sufficient. | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre T ramey,Star Sound is a no nonsense high quality company. I'm glad the Rhythm platforms worked out so well in your system. | |
