| Has anyone bought the Psvane Acme 300B Vacuum Tube? The lower cost 300b tubes are solid, good sounding tubes, they just aren’t “great “ sounding, With SET amplifiers I only require a single pair and that’s it. Unquestionably a different proposition when one needs multiple 300bs for their amplifier.... | |
| Has anyone bought the Psvane Acme 300B Vacuum Tube? @fthompson251 Yes, that’s a lot of 300b tubes. Although I have not heard them personally, there are many good comments in regard to the JJ 300b . Reports are a good sounding and reliable tube that is very affordable. I am familiar with the VAC ... | |
| Has anyone bought the Psvane Acme 300B Vacuum Tube? @sns As I previously mentioned, in checking around the web you’ll mostly find satisfied users of all the boutique 300B tubes. This tells you one of two things, either all the boutique tubes are nice or its all confirmation bias. You may find a pa... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @jjss49 how’s that for an audiophile’s word salad??... 🤣 hope that helps It is “very” helpful and insightful. I sincerely appreciate your impressions. BTW, McIlroy is looking good as the leader thus far. Charles | |
| Higher sensitivity - more dynamic sound? +1 @phusis The snarky misguided jukebox reference adds nothing to what is a good and informative thread. Different opinion and perspective can be contributed without condescension for sure. Charles | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @jjss49 Good morning. You once owned the AudioNote 4.1 DAC which many have praised for its natural tone and timbre as well as its emotionally involving nature. How does the 005 compare with the 4.1 in that area? Natural/authentic tone and timbre... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC and those who own unit, don't trust their sensory perception, thus, feel insecure in their purchase, I know at least one in this boat. I find this sad. Someone has so feeble/fragile a level of confidence in their own listening judgment that th... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @jjss49 Your time and effort in conducting these insightful DAC listening comparisons are very much appreciated by folks on this forum. Charles | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns I'd also like to hear far more from audio manufacturers on this front. If measurements don't count for much, state this clearly on sales and marketing front. Agreed As I have said numerous times before, measurements are necessary and p... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm 👍 Thanks, just as I suspected. Charles | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Hi @sns I guess in this respect we see it a bit differently. Once you have taken the time to carefully listen and judge various parts, what is fussing over measurements going to yield post listening confirmation? The designer could have taken th... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm So it seemed logical that each part was listened to before a commitment to its inclusion and cost. That was confirmed recently in correspondence with the designer as I wrote in an earlier post Well, he has my full respect for doing so. ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I’ve been doing some reading about the Musetec 005 and I am getting a very strong suspicion that the designer/builder may have actually listened to each part during the selection/rejection decision making stage. 1 Audionote Kaisei capacitors along... | |
