| Preamp Deal of the Century @marcusthenaimnut, I am no expert, but what you are doing doesn’t make sense to me. The Cortese has a very high gain phono stage, I have one myself. You are turning down the gain on the Moving Coil pre, then boosting it back up with step up tran... | |
| Tube Pre-amp Suggestions. @porchlight1 When you say Sylvania "triangle Plates" I beleive you are referring to the angled T plates in the GTB series? They started in 1954. Not as good as the previous GT series, but still great quality Sylvania tubes. | |
| How do I connect my speaker cables to this Coda Amp The plastic covers do not come off. The binding posts on my S5.5 came with the opening facing up. So I called Coda and Doug walked me through the process of reversing them to face down. It took 3 tries to get them on the phone as they were prett... | |
| 5ar4 rectifier tube george53, First thing you need to do is realize that Uncle Kevin is a salesman, and a business owner. That doesnt mean that he is dishonest, which I dont beleive that he is, but he does steer his customers to what he has on hand. And that isn’t a... | |
| New Review on Pine Tree Audio cables I'm wondering how their HexaBraid SPC XLR interconnect compares to Veritas Argentum X balanced. I had settled on buying the Veritas, but this Pine Tree cable has me curious if I can get similar performance for half the cost. | |
| Western Electric 300b's pricing They had a sale over Christmas season. If I remember correctly it was 20% off. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found @ denon1 I dont see Aperta SE offered on their menu, is this a discontinued version? Also you mention that you returned the Argentum XLR because you found them noisy, I have never heard of a cable being considered noisy before. What is your pref... | |
| F-XLR to M-RCA recommendations Veritas has a pair of those up on Audiomart. Special order pair that someone backed out on. | |
| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... Help me out here guys, is it MM, MC, or does it run both? It's so small that I thought it might be a step up transformer. | |
| Phono Cables for Sutherland 20/20 mk1? If your situation is that you need the phono cables to be separate/individual cables, most of them are just that, a pair of cables. Morrow Cables and Triode Wire Labs phono cables for example, are both a pair of cables. So a separation of the conn... | |
| Best MC step up transformer @ rauliruegas I agree sir, but that wasnt the question. | |
| Best MC step up transformer The best, well thats debatable. As mentioned by leemark, the legendary Stevens and Billington tx103 SUT's are as good as it gets. But you can only buy them through Music First now in their own device. I owned the Bent Audio SUT's that used the Ste... | |
| Anyone knows reputable places in Europe and Canada to buy NOS tubes from? Langrex UK is one you can try. https://www.langrex.co.uk/ | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found @ v-fi Are they slow on email response? I sent one yesterday, no reply yet, I know it's only one day but it would be nice to find a cable builder/business thats responsive. I I havnt found one yet, including all the small builders mentioned by th... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Well bummer. I was looking at getting Veritas Argentum X balanced cables for my Aric Audio Motherlode XL which will arrive several months from now. All the AMart ads are gone. So now its web site shopping and the prices went up. My first choice wa... |
