Rogue Audio Atlas Magnum III Power Amplifier I was reading Stereophile review, and it says that Output power is 100Wpc in Ultralinear mode and about 60Wpc in Triode. Will my Focal 936 handle 60WPC? Sorry am a newbie when it comes to amplifiers. Also, can the amp take KT150 tubes? | |
Rogue Audio Atlas Magnum III Power Amplifier I probably can. Will it be a match though? Both are 100 watts. Parasound is many more watts than the two. It makes me wonder if I am going to lose something going from solid state to tubes at a lower wattage. | |
Supratek Owners Thread Well Mick gave up on my Cabernet hum issue. He does not know why the other new tubes hum and not the ones he sent me. I do not know if he tests his preamps with other tubes and only uses Russian tubes to calibrate his preamps. He is going to ask h... | |

Supratek Owners Thread Ok Guys, I spoke too soon about the hum being caused by the tubes. I bought a new set to tubes Tung Sol 6SN7GTB and hum is back. The previous tubes where all this started were Psvane 6SN7 Treasure MKII. Now the strange part is the 6SN7 tubes that ... | |
Supratek Owners Thread Thanks jslateiv but I think I solved the issue. Well the issue with the hum is solved and another popped up in its place. I took the equipment apart and put is together again but hum was there. Then on a whim I disabled the gain on the preamp and ... | |

Supratek Owners Thread Well Mick says its not the power/umbilical cord so I am left with the hum. I am looking at hum busters. Any suggestions? | |
Supratek Owners Thread Sorry for late response, been busy at work. I think there is something wrong with the umbilical cord for the preamp. I started by turning on the power supply and could not hear any hum coming from it. Then I attached the preamp with umbilical cord... | |
Supratek Owners Thread Well Mick sent me a new power supply and it still hums. I tried without umbilical cord and a new tube and it still hums. I am so disappointed because I love the sound of the preamp but the hum is driving me crazy. I can hear it in the speakers and... | |
Best 12AU7 Tubes for BHK Preamp? For me the best current 12AU7 tube is Psvane 12AU7. I have tried TungSol, Mullard, Gold Lion but nothing compares to Psvane. | |
Supratek Owners Thread I have the Cabernet for a about two months. I posted earlier that my preamp get a hum when you come closer to the power supply but Mick said it is due to power supply being over engineered. Now the hum has seeped into the speakers and Mick says he... | |
Supratek Owners Thread Has anyone thought of or changed the fuse on Cabernet to a higher end fuse? I am thinking of doing it. If you have changed it then can you list it here and the changes you noticed. Thanks. | |
Supratek Owners Thread Well received an email from Mick, According to him quote ' its nothing to worry about, you might find it depends on the time of day, the mains voltage etc. Its very over engineered and very strong transformer'. So am not going to worry about it... |
