| External Power Supply For My Audiolab 6000CDT CD Transport @mitch4t I also have the 6000CDT and will be curious to hear your progress. I also bought the TP power supply for my BS Node and it definitely made an improvement. | |

| Adding tube sound to my SS system I have both the BHK Signature preamp and the BHK300 mono blocks and I love the ability to change tubes on either of them. In the preamp I’ve tried 5-6 different tubes and have been using NOS, RCA clear tops for the last couple of months. On the a... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Listening to another Binker Golding album, Dream Like A Dogwood Wild Boy. Another well recorded album. | |
