| Thoughts on current EL-34 tubes Rich, I totally agree with the warm up aspect, I too give the amp and preamp 30 minutes of warm up time before playing any music. I'll have to revisit the EH tubes, and Stevecham, I too like the tube depot, thats where I have ordered the Tungsols ... | |
| Thoughts on current EL-34 tubes Thanks for the responses so far keep them coming. I have tried the Mullard reissues and did not find them as well rounded as the winged "C" tubes. Rich how have you found the EH tubes as far as reliability, I had some problems with those a while b... | |
| Most significant upgrade The reason I suggested the 2CE sigs is because I am familiar with the sound of both your current speakers and the 2 CE sigs. For the type of music you listen to, and your integrated that you are using. The Vandersteen speakers have a frequency ran... | |
| Most significant upgrade I think Mezmo is right, your system looks pretty good as is . To get a real "upgrade" you are going to have to spend a bit of coin. The one thing that may not cost you much but give some good results would be to sell the speakers and get a pair of... | |
| Where R U????? Northwestern burbs of Detroit here. | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? What an interesting thread this is, I have followed this one from the beginning. Some excellent points have been brought up, mapmans last post is spot on IMO. As for my speakers I own a pair of Gedlee Abbey 12A speakers that use a waveguide along ... | |
| Could this be the next Frank Sinatra? No I certainly think not, and wouldn't it be nice if people just stopped with the, could this be the next "you fill in the blank". There will never be another Frank Sinatra, he was a legend and will always be with me. I hear this all the time in s... | |
| Anyone with W4S amps and preamp I am running a ST-500 into a pair of Earl Geddes Abbey 12As, and it sounds great. I use a RHB Sound Dezign modified CJ PV-14L for a preamp, which means I have no choice but to use single ended cables. I am completely happy with the sound of this c... | |
| Anyone have experience with new Jolida power amp? I haven't had either piece you mention but I do have the JD-1000P now and had the 1000 integrated a few years back. I have also used the 302s as amps before. As you can tell I like the Jolida equipment, I think it is very good equipment at the pri... | |
| Best undiscovered speakers on the market today ? Another vote for the GedLee speakers. | |
| How much power is needed for Martin Logan Ascents? Also Pal you didn't mention what your budget is, that will make a rather large difference in your possible choices. I will say that I just picked up a Wyred 4 Sound ST-500 250wpc class d amp and am totally impressed with this amps sound. It should... | |
| How much power is needed for Martin Logan Ascents? I owned a pair of Ascent i Logans for 2 years and powered them with a number of different amps from original atma-sphere MA-1s with speltz auto formers to 2 Rotel 1090s (too bright) to Jolida 300A monos to a Mesa Baron which was the best amp I had... | |
| Wyred 4 Sound.....Anyone????? Well I believe I am going to try one of the MAC cords also. Until I get the Mac I have some different "entry" level cords to compare Signal Magic Power and Element Cable P.C. anyone with further input feel free to respond.Dan | |
| Wyred 4 Sound.....Anyone????? Nice systems Rhljazz, and thanks for the input on the power cords. Let me get this clarified, are the stock cord and the P-1 cord that wyred sells on their site the same cord?? I am assuming they are not but if they are I don't want to order a P-1... | |
| Wyred 4 Sound.....Anyone????? OK fellas I am taking the class D plunge here. I have a ST-500 that I picked up used arriving at the end of the week. A little background I really like tube equipment and have been using a tube amp since I received my current speakers (Geddes Abbe... |
