| Output Caps For Dehavilland Ultraverve Some 100 hours gets you most of the way. | |
| Output Caps For Dehavilland Ultraverve Another good choice if you don’t want to parallel caps is to go with the Jupiter copper foil caps, 600vdv. Get the 2.2uf value. Sonic Craft sells them for $140 each or so. They are spectacular. Right up there with a Duelund CAST in this position. ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I owned ASL amps before and had several issues with blowing tubes and resistors. They were different models like the Hurricane, but worth mentioning here. | |
| Output Caps For Dehavilland Ultraverve No issues at all going into my friends mklll. Very easy to do. When I say no problem, I mean fitting the Jupiter and Duelund bypass. The Duelund silver foils are very small and the Jupiter’s fit. The Duelund CAST is a great cap, but a 2.2uf value ... | |
| Question for cable/wire naysayers..... Naysayers naysay on a lot more topics than this particular one. Naysaying is built into their personality and it is as simple as that. Nothing wrong with that or them, but it must be understood. Beyond that what @geoffkait said above is certainly ... | |
| Member's recommendations for tube amplification Also consider these Audio Note monoblock amps for sale; 300b parallel SET monoblock amps. http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649306274-audio-note-300b-parallel-legend/Music Reference RM 10 would also be a sweet match with your DI speakers in my e... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Well said John and I agree 10000% based on my experience. | |
| Output Caps For Dehavilland Ultraverve Need the 600v Jupiter. 100v is for speaker crossovers. Expect the Duelund silver to improve everything top to bottom considerably. The impact they have is substantial improving the SQ of the output cap position by some 20%. | |
| Is there a better integrated amp than the Cary SI-300.2d for the money? The Lyngdorf 2170 is absolutely wonderful. It is far more than an integrated amp however. No need for a dac either. The room correction is state of the art and a game changer. I replaced $18,000 worth of top rated separates and wire with it. Sound... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @porcheracerA great SS preamp for reasonable money used, under $1000, is the Bel Canto Pre 3. Absolutely wonderful. Neutral in the best way and so smooth! ! For more money the Rowland Capri in it’s various versions is very good indeed. About $1800... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Just an update on the modifications I completed on the 300 and 150. Adding the DC blocking circuit did not bring about additional sound quality improvement. It did however quiet down the transformer in the 300 and the transformer in my integrated ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Yes we have several very good choices. The deHavilland UltraVerve 3 Preamplifier is a great 6sn7 choice. The First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk III Tube preamp for sale here is another 6sn7 great choice. It will sound better than the UltraVerve, but i... | |
| Output Caps For Dehavilland Ultraverve Ok here is what you do if you have the money. The total capacitance needed should be between 1.8uf - 2.8uf. Best option;1) Jupiter copper foil caps 2.2uf. $200 for both at Sonic Craft. Place the Duelund .01uf silver foil bypass caps in parallel. $... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @grey9hound Sorry, I knew you owned the DIs and had a brain fart. Read too fast. I would love to stop by and listen. I will contact you through Agon so we can determine a best day and time. Thank you so much!Bill | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @grey9hound I live in Franklin, TN and want the same opportunity! Want to split the cost on a new pair with each of us listening for a month? We can decide who keeps this pair and the other can decide if they want to buy a set after auditioning. J... |
