| Preamp Deal of the Century Mustang is absolutely correct on tube position for the Cortese. The 180 tubes are in front.Mustang, I picked up the Lucinda Williams lp per your suggestion. Very good.Also I thank you and Ecclectique for tube recommendations. Very helpful. Definit... | |
| Any experience w/ better equipment racks? The reason I asked about budget and number of components is that I had a custom suspension rack made by a company I ran accross at CES. It is excellent but was expensive. The price depended on how large I wanted it. A good rack may conform to your... | |
| Any experience w/ better equipment racks? What is your budget and how many components will the rack support? | |
| Buying brand new unheard equipment. How is this product "The answer to all my problems?"The search for that special component, within budget, is part of the fun. Frustrating at times but that's the game.If you mention the features and describe the sound you are looking for, there ma... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks Slowhand. The music is always first. Now playing Van Morrison "Enlightenment" I will definitely check out the Lucinda Williams LP. Thanks for the tip.Doc | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks Mustang.I am surprised about your use of contact enhancer. I thought the conventional wisdom on that was not to use anything on tube pins. I use the SST product on connections with some success.I appreciate the 6F6 tube info. I do not fully... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Ecclectique and MustangHi, I located the 1957 Philips Mini Watt metal base GZ34. I am looking forward to giving that a try. Expensive but it seems it may be well worth it. Also located a set of 6SN7Tung-sol round plates. This should be fun. I rese... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Ecclectique,At the moment I am using a VDH Black beauty Special X.I am awaiting a new TT and Schroeder arm and considering an ZYX Universe. I just have to make sure it is a definite upgrade worth the money. Expensive! I hope the new set up will be... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks all, looks like some tube rolling is in order soon. Mustang, I find the phono stage to be very quite. I do at times play the tunes a bit on the loud side but only at severe levels do I hear a bit of hum between cuts. Actually, several other... | |
| ALL Things IPOD I use an Iriver as opposed to I pod. The Iriver has a line in feature that allows me to record direct from my TT or CDP. It does a great job for what it is. I recently made a trip to British Columbia. We were out in a very remote area. The Iriver ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century This thread appears to be dying out. Well, I will add my 2 cents to keep it going. Received my new Cortese about 2 months ago and it really is what most posts on this thread say. The phono stage is amazing. I have not started tube rolling yet but ... | |
| Audioquest interconnects need opinions I believe Audioquest makes a cable for subs. | |
| Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have 1977 HD Police Special. Purchased new in 77 and has remained stock ever since. Lots of miles but never stranded. Unlike my components, I will be keeping this.Hope I get to the same point with my stereo. A side note: The bike is worth 5 or 6 times ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Good question.I have a Cortese. It finally arrived last week. This pre is amazing. Worth the wait.My question is the reverse: Can the HT bypass be used as an output to a reel to reel?I am using balanced IC's to my amps. Balanced and unbalanced out... |
