| Help What is this Mystery Old Tube Amp Looks like it could just be a power supply... no output trannies visible. Probably voltage regulator tubes (?)... hard to say. -Ed | |

| Info Needed on ADS L1530s Yes, if not using the C2000 or PA1 setup (or another factory ADS setup) you'd need some other sort of line level crossover (Bryston 10B, etc). Frankly I'd suspect the C2000 would beat up on anything from Sonic Frontiers, esp. given that it is desi... | |
| Review: Shuguang/SuperTNT 845B tube Tweak The 845B is a new model, no analog to previous Shuguang 845s. B just differentiates it from the normal 845 that they also make. I don't believe there is any such thing as 845A from them. | |
| Info Needed on ADS L1530s Interestingly, I saw someone recently selling off some ADS stuff from NYC area. I think in that, they had a C2000 system. They definitely had a pair of PA1s, which are the factory biamp modules that screw into the back of the L1290/1590 and I thin... | |
| Info Needed on ADS L1530s leave them as-is. Anything you do is only going to make things worse most likely, and ruin any long-term value they would have. They are not very common. They were set up for bi-Amping (with external crossover) which has far more merit as an idea,... | |
| has anyone else heard of him?? Jamie Cullum (sp?) of the UK is worth a listen too, if you are into this type of music. -Ed | |
| Mullard xf3 codes yes | |
| good phono amp under 1000? The best is the Wright WPP100c. Tubed, very nice sound, well made, not expensive. $825 new, used for maybe $600. IMHO, kicks the ass of the EAR 834P. (heard both in the same environment). -Ed | |
| Rectifier tubes flashing that would be my guess too, esp. if cap input filter into the PS. -Ed | |
| Audiogon Music News June "you know his mind is not for rent... "LOLSaw Rush on their last tour, a year or so ago. They still kicked ass. Opened with that song, actually. -Ed | |
| SACD - Dying already? The format will, of course, survive. All of the above is just postulating, which at best is an educated guess and at worse just opinionated speculation. 3 things will ensure it's survival (if not others): 1) Sony has yet to ever give up on a forma... | |
| Amplification with Harbeth Loudspeakers I'd go with the Bryston out of those two.they are an easy load and work with many things, tubes from 15w and up, or of course SS. -Ed | |
| Audiogon Music News June Here's another slip:"small tit bits"heh. small is ok. So is big. -Ed | |
| Tube Amp Hum try floating a ground on a power cable to see if it's a ground loop hum. swap tubes side to side to see if it follows a partiuclar tube. Check the outputs with a multimeter to see if any DC is getting passed in somehow. many possibilities, search ... |
