| Black glass KenRad 6SN7s take the cake Asa, the characteristics you're describing seem very much like the differences I hear between Sylvania VT-231s and the clear glass Ken-Rad VT-231s I'm currently comparing. Are you saying that the black glass Ken-Rads have even more of what you're ... | |
| Have you had buyers/sellers back out of a deal? I closed a deal to purchase a subwoofer here on Audiogon Oct. 9th and sent my payment information immediately. On Oct. 28th I canceled the deal because three promised shipment dates had been missed and the sub still hadn't been sent. I told the se... | |
| Black glass KenRad 6SN7s take the cake Well, I've had some clear glass Ken-Rad VT-231s burning in my system since Wednesday, and had my first listen this Saturday morning.In my system they do indeed sound big, lush and not dark at all. They don't have the top end detail of the Sylvania... | |
| Subwoofer recommendations for this system? I have my concerns with plate amps as well, that's why I've decided to build a pair of stereo subs and run them off my Bryston 4B. | |
| The "coolest" looking system? Warrenh, I think Viggen has the coolest speaker platforms. Most informative too. Take a look at his virtual system. :Â)http://cgim.audiogon.com/i/vs/s/f/1033881648.jpg | |
| Bruce Moore Tube Amps Thanks for the info Smerkle. As I get deeper into this hobby I'm starting to find that I like resolution and detail, but not at the price of musicality. It sounds like the Bruce Moore line might be a direction I may be taking. Once I get the cash.... | |
| Black glass KenRad 6SN7s take the cake Dennis, my impression of the NOS Tung-Sols and Sylvania VT-231s mirrors yours in my Blue Circle BC21. Early this past spring when I was buying up tubes on Audiogon, I managed to snag three NOS US Navy Ken-Rad VT-231s dated January and February 194... | |
| Subwoofer recommendations for this system? Yeah, I forgot about the ACI line of subwoofers like the Force, Titan and Titan II. Many people have compared them favorably to RELs and some of them actually will fit within your budget brand new. | |
| Subwoofer recommendations for this system? Without ever hearing one myself, the first sub I'd recommend for your application would be the REL Strata III. I think for your power and musical requirements it would be very tough to beat. Hopefully some people that own the Strata III and have a... | |
| Compatible Multichannel Amp for NHT's?? I'm not much of a home theater person, but I've been using my NHT SuperOnes and SuperZeros with an ATI 1505 [5x150 watts] for the last four and a half years and have enjoyed this combo immensely. Probably a little more power than I need, but what ... | |
| I just installed NOS tubes? My experience with tubes isn't as extensive as other A'Goners, but I've noticed with both my Blue Circle BC21 and Kora Hermes that whenever I changed the stock tubes to NOS to varying degrees I could always hear an immediate difference.Tubes don't... | |
| Bruce Moore Tube Amps Thanks for the info Twl, I managed to find RB Audio through the search engines. I was really impressed by what I read at Home Theater & Hi Fi about the Dual 70 and Companion IIc, especially in regards to the midrange reproduction.I've been ver... | |
| Virtual Dynamics -- what has it beaten? Hey guys, while my system has been all VD Audition for the last six months, I did recently change my digital cable to a Nite. That's the only place I'll probably be able to afford to upgrade for awhile. The area that the VDs have been much better ... | |
| Bruce Moore Tube Amps Smerkle, I noticed that the Dual 70 uses four 6922s and four KT88s, how does the amp sound with it's stock tubes and what if any NOS tubes have you tried with it? | |
| Bruce Moore Tube Amps Does Bruce Moore sell direct or through dealers? |
