| Vintage Receiver: TANDBERG, MARANTZ, or…? Ouch yogi thanks for the heads up I'll be sure to steer clear of luxman. Tony I do think you could go wrong with the 2230 it has a very mellow sound if you find a good one im sure you will like it. I've heard a lot of sansui gear and have always f... | |
| Vintage Receiver: TANDBERG, MARANTZ, or…? Really? I can't imagine luxman gear from the seventies is any less reliable than sansui, pioneer or marantz. If we are talking lux gear from the 80's I would tend to agree. I bought my Marantz from a guy who had pretty much restored it. As far as ... | |
| Solid State amps with tube preamps Running a class d SDS 470c with a tube preamp and I love this combination. | |
| Vintage Receiver: TANDBERG, MARANTZ, or…? How about a luxman? Never owned one but I have a few friends that are really into vintage gear and they love the old luxman gear. I have owned a marantz 2285b however and now kick myself for selling it. | |

| Tad 1000's quiet? Ah Philly I used to live there I miss it. | |
| Tad 1000's quiet? Are they biased? Do you own a multimeter? | |
| Tad 1000's quiet? Just to make sure do you have the gain knob in the back of the amp turned all the way up? As I said I own the 150 pre and had the 60 tube amp. I would say tad gear is great value for the money and if you get it sorted out you may be very happy. Ha... | |
| Tad 1000's quiet? Shouldn't you have a pair of 6v6 tubes in the place of the el34? In not too familiar with this amp but having 1 el34 tube in each amps seems odd to me. | |
| Tad 1000's quiet? One or two el34's? | |
| Tad 1000's quiet? He states that it has always been this way and I asked what kind of tubes he has in it because as you said Johnny if HD is using 12au7's that could cause the low gain issue. Brinmeliss, did you buy these pieces new or used? If you purchased them s... |
