| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Jet,Thank you. It works both ways you know. I enjoy reading about your hands on experiences with your custom 300b SET. I look forward to the Sophia Electric and Audio Note output transformer comparison. There is much interesting information to be ... | |

| Is my preamp useless? Bill (Grannyring)Your credibility and honesty are well recognized on audiogon. Common sense dictacts that some will prefer passive and others active line stages, it just depends. I don't understand the put down comments for those who don't find th... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Elrog update,I guess I should have seen this coming, the good has gotten better. The sound continues to open up and has improved on what was described just a few days ago. In essence here's what's evolving. The foundation, weight and body have imp... | |

| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Cal3713,The Mullard GZ37 is a simple plug in and play replacement rectifier tube. Cal, I tried to emphasize while conveying my Elrog description that the EML XLS and Takatsuki are still excellent choices. It's not as though I didn't enjoy listenin... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Rob,That was a wise decision. That is the hard to find fat bottle version I believe. You're on the right path for sure. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Rob,As you read above, Jeff heard my system today. He knows my system intimately and thought as highly of the Takatsuki and EML XLS as I do. My advice if you can swing it, get the Elrogs for your Frankenstein. Start at the top with this combinatio... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Jeff,Thanks for your comments and it was fun having you drop by my home today. Our systems are very different in terms of components and room acoustics, yet both reproduce music beautifully in their unique way. Both systems emphasize the natural s... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes If I were Israel Blume, I'd offer a Coincident Frankenstein Premium package. Elrog 300b and the Mullard GZ37 rectifier tube. It wouldn't be cheap nor ultra expensive either(within reach of a lot of people). With a proper efficient speaker it would... | |

| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Bill,How much improvement did you notice with your Elrogs as you accumulated more hours on them? They are so good with only a few hours(24 hour factory burn in). Bill, I can honestly say this tube in the Frankenstein is a stunningly good match. I ... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes I realize there's no mention of soundstage and imaging. If you have a good system set up all 3 of these tubes will only enrich those aspects. I tend to just focus on the characteristics that make or break it for me. If the tone/timbre isn't right ... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes I listened to my new Elrog 300b today and I'll get to the point, this is a new standard of excellence for me. It does not blow away, embarrass or cause jaws dropping to the floor compared to Takatsuki and the EML XLS. No hyperbole is necessary as ... |
