| TRL Dude or Joule 150 MKII for Major Pre Upgrade The Dude as an output impedance of around 5k ohms. I am having the same noise problem in my system with an Aesthetix Atlas hybrid amp and my Dude preamp. The Atlas has both xlr and RCA inputs however. I get a buzz with both the Dude and a passive ... | |
| TRL Dude Dilemna No, someday I would love to listen and perhaps own one of Paul's amps. A little out of my $ league right now. My Atlas is used and I paid about one half of retail. | |
| TRL Dude or Joule 150 MKII for Major Pre Upgrade I would ask Paul if he would build you one like that. Only he can answer that question. | |
| TRL Dude Dilemna Ya, I love the Dude with the Aesthetix Atlas. Best combo yet for me. I don't need all the power of the Atlas, but boy does it sing with the Dude on my speakers!Tellefsen, the Atlas responds well to tube rolling over stock tubes. You can get more o... | |
| Frustrated with the sound of my system Ok Spaz I will bite. I have heard a great system in an untreated room. I have heard a great system in a room treated with very little. I have heard very expensive systems in treated rooms that I hated. I threw out 80% of my room treatments and my ... | |

| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? It stays the same if all I do is turn off the amp and then turn back on. I may bring another speaker down to test as the problem only surfaced when a new speaker came into the system. Could it be a speaker issue? I know it is passive, but..... | |
| TRL Dude Dilemna ...or like most of us gets tangled up in the tech talk lingo of the day. | |
| TRL Dude Dilemna Direct coupled with transformers is one way to go, but according to the builder of the Dude it has sonic disadvantages - and certainly in his design. Most amps have ample input impedance and only a few can cause some rolling off at the extremes. A... | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? Ok , here is what I found. With the ic's connected to the direct inputs (RCA) on the amp no matter which input I chose on the selector the buzz was there. Did not matter as long as the ic's were connected. When I connected the ic's into the crosso... | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? My experience with hooking up ic's to an amp and leaving them open on the other end is a very loud and seemingly dangerous noise through the speakers. I don't think I will try that.... Right Al? | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? With the pre's ic's hooked up and the unit unplugged the buzz still lives. | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? Yes Sam. Chasing a buzz. The preamp need only be in the system and not turned on. Just the ic's hooked up to it.I ran a wire from the chassis of the pre to the chassis of the amp and still a buzz. | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? Well I once again removed all from the amp except the speakers. Turned the amp on and no buzz. I do get some tube rush from the tweeter in one speaker, but that must be my input tube in that channel. Just a tube hiss, not a buzz through the highs ... | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? I shorted pins 1 and 3 and still the same old buzz. I appreciate your help on this Al. |
