| How do I break in a tube amplifier? No offense to Polk432 but I thought it was funny how he mentioned 1001 precautions about tube amps and then closes with "Have fun. Tubes are great". LOL. This is why I went away from tubes. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Since I've been buying a lot of cables lately, and on the advice of my friend Eric, (bigshutterbug), I've decided to wait on the fuses for the Job until I get a grasp on my new cables. Think I"m on day 9......... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? JOe, The Job owner manual only states the fuse is 4A slow blow. Do you know for a fact it's 250v? Did you see it on the fues? I was just about to buy a fuse and saw different values. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Thanks Joe. I just joined and responded on audioshark. Like I said, I'm on day 6 of my indecisiveness about which fuse to put in. Hearing different things about different fuses.Luka | |
| Modding Synergistic Research MPC to Galileo status Well, regarding the difference with the mod BEFORE break in compared to AFTER break in, the blacks got blacker, backgrounds got quieter, more "air" around voices and instruments. Now, this difference wasn't as if I changed an amp or other componen... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Joe, yeah that's the one I saw. I was going to buy it but then emailed you with my concern. I just need to buy it tonight and get it over with. I have to see if they have one for my DAC too. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Jslate, glad you've found happiness with the Job. I too have been a tube guy (for about 17 years). I never thought I'd settle on a SS amp but like you said, a strange pursuit. Everything is system dependant though. All I know is my current speaker... | |
| Modding Synergistic Research MPC to Galileo status Tboooe, just wondering if you've noticed a change once the MPC had some additional hours on it. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? I'm a little concerned about replacing any stock fuses with a boutique fuse. I may just be paranoid, but I've read in a few places that while some boutique fuses will SOUND better, they may not be quick enough in protecting the component-its prima... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Hey, we're all in this together right? LOL. No problem Peleg, and good luck with your better half! Joe, I understand that Job is coming out with a preamp soon. God, I have a feeling I'm going to make another purchase....I currently have the Bent T... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Peleg, I wouldn't misinterpret my description of "clean" with sterile or bright. By clean I meant more of a "quiet" sound with a low noise floor which also brings out more subtle nuances deep within a recoding. Sorry if this isn't the widely accep... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Joe, glad your Job is in and sounding fantastic! My friend had an 868 with an 890 and his system always sounded great. Curious to know how it sounds with the 225. The thing that I love most about the Job is it's so damned holographic. The transpar... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Ncore VS JOB/Goldmund............Hmmmmm. Sounds interesting. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? I've owned two EAR amps over the years. .... the 890 and the 834 Integrated. Both amps emphasize the midrange which is typicall of EAR amps IMO. I Don't want to influence your opinion of the 890 before u get it. ... I'm Just saying that was what I... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Joe, U say u would've purchased the job over any other solid state amp. I thought u had the momentum amps. Don't tell me u like the 225 better than those. |
