| Halcyonics under my tt. Wow No. I end an email to Herzan asking about the retail for TS-140, but never got any reply.BTW - does Micro 40 has auto leveling feature ? The Silencer has to be readjusted every time you put a different component on it (for different weight). | |

| ANYONE heard the old 1957 ge 6550,s I have had much success with original 1950s NOS TunSol Black Plate 6550 tube that I fitted into my ARC Ref 3 power supply. So I'm also a convert, so to speak.Too bad Black Plates run upwards $500 for a single tube nowadays ! | |
| Audio Research REF 3 Arcl60 - you should go an extra mile and get NOS TungSol Black Plate 6550 tube. The improvement is not trivial, and much, much greater than what can be acheived by putting DR tubes (I have both DRs and NOS 6550 in my Ref 3).We discussed it over he... | |
