Couldn't come up with much other than a few references to 12au7 and 6211 tubes in the Wolze (along with EF86).These came from title headings on Google, but the articles/pages were no longer available.6211 must have been the tube I researched for t... | |
| ... How to select tubes for line level preamp ... The 12ax7 has approx. 5 times the gain of a 12au7 "type" tube. Never seen/heard you preamp but, from what I recall about it an unusual 12au7 type was used.I may have run across the Wolze when researching tubes for my "early" Bottlehead Foreplay 1... | |
| ... How to select tubes for line level preamp ... Was you preamp modified?The original Wolze used a 12au7 "type" along with EF86.DeKay | |
| Are There Any Risks to Your Stylus From Using Magic Eraser Yes, what Dill describes...Been using it with ZERO problems (my old SME arm has a "lever" lift which I use for the procedure).I DO NOT use Stylast - just an ancient dry brush that I have used for decades. I also use the "original" ME’s (stolen fro... | |
| 3 Albums To Be Stranded With On A Desert Island I would go with 3 different masterings/pressings of the same album in order that I could compare them to one another.The specific album chosen would be immaterial.DeKay | |
| Full Range speakers for a living space Have you tried rolling tubes in the preamplifier?That would be my first step.Also, your power amplifier has some kind of a setup for bi-wiring (specific pair of outputs go to the LF's and the the other pair to mids/highs).DeKay | |

| Tweaks that work? (yes very subjective topic) "I am hoping for a detailed response from @millercarbon"And...I'm hoping for a similar response from the like minded Gilderoy Lockhart.DeKay | |

| Building a tweeter It's a closed back horn loaded bullet style tweeter.If you don't need the "box" for other drivers you can just mount it on a small board.Look up pics of Fostex bullet tweeters and you should come across some examples.DeKay | |
| 6SN7GTB replacement Thought the GT was rated as 300V (not 350V) maximum plate voltage.Bigger difference than 350V.There is an "old" production 6SN7 rated @ 450V, but I do not recall the "after" 6SN7 "letters".Again, as mentioned, it depends upon the circuit design.DeKay | |
| How to contact Audiogon Support justmetoo:Sorry I forgot to mention that...Referring to adult males as "lads" (in this forum) is an automatic Seven day suspension (FYI).Just the messenger (don't make up the rules).DeKay |
