| Low gain dac! To clarify, my Supratek is a dual design, was buying a Cabernet with 6SN7 output, but then Mick has designed a dual with 6SN7 and 300B output, on the 300B output I can adjust gain, but unfortunately I like the 6SN7 better for most music, unfortuna... | |
| Low gain dac! I am not a technical person. When I was in email with Mick at Supratek, I told him about my system and sent him a picture of the speck of the amp, he told me they were ideal for each other!!But still, my system sounds really great, that is not the... | |
| Low gain dac! Went on EBay and bought 1 pair of each (Harrison Labs and Rothwell) looking forward to try them out. | |
| Low gain dac! Thanks for the advice, but I like the sound of tubes, and just to be clear, my system got so much better when I got the Supratek, will never sell it I suspect, it makes the artists stand in my living room so to speak, my dac is good, but I suspect... | |
| Low gain dac! Thanks russ69 that’s good to know.elevick - I have a fantastic tube pre amp, just would like to have bigger volume range.cat_doorman - would prefer rca output (single ended), price? $2000-$3000c color? Not so important, but preferably black, input... | |
| Low gain dac! russ69 - I always heard that an attenuator would degrade the sound, but maybe that is just a tale !As to millercarbon - I know that where a volume knob is sitting isn’t really important, therefore writing from 6 o’clock to 8-9 o’clock would give y... | |
| Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ? https://youtu.be/abdmZbQPQtYThis guy has a very good channel, in one of the videos he talks about amp design and how many watts we really need, just bare in mind he is talking about European midsize room not US cathedrals 😜I must say I totally agr... | |
| Looking for a DAC under 2k cal3713 - I do understand the difference between bal and rca, was more thinking about the implementation.Even though I have balanced equipment, I am leaning to the camp that balanced is overkill in home Hi-Fi and that the money would be better spe... | |
| Looking for a DAC under 2k Is there a quality difference sound vise between balanced output and rca output on these dac’s ? | |
| Supratek Owners Thread It has, but only on the 300B output.That is the only small disappointment when buying, I had the understanding that both outputs could be adjusted or at least the 6SN7 output as that was the reason for buying the Cabernet and the 300B would be a b... | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? Thanks guys, the hiss does not bother me when music is playing although sometimes I think the blackness should be blacker so to speak, but maybe it’s my mind playing games with me after noticing the hiss, will try some things out, if no change, I ... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread Yes, it is both speakers, I will try some stuff out this weekend, unfortunately I at this moment do not have an other power amp or tubes to try, will try the 300b output first, I don’t mind some tube noise, but I just thought it sounding louder th... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread Hi, I posted this in the Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? thread, though I would post it here also.I got my Cabernet a few weeks ago now, very happy with the quality of construction and the sound is very good, one thing I have noticed is t... | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? I got my Cabernet a few weeks ago now, very happy with the quality of construction and the sound is very good, one thing I have noticed is that after a week or so I started noticing hiss from the woofer on my Graham Audio LS 6/9, I am sure it was ... | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? I one wants neutral tonality, why not go for a good solid state pre, maintenance free and no need for tube nervousness aka Nos Tubes😝 |
