Allnic h-3000 power supply issue
@pops I'll be on the hunt for one of those GZ34 big base mullards. I will definitely report back when I try out the stillpoints as well.   
Allnic h-3000 power supply issue
@pops thanks for the advice. I've definitely got a mixed bag of AQ and Shunyata cables. I guess I'll just dive in and go for it. I think I read Albert porter was a fan of the stillpoints so I'll be dipping my toe in that realm first. Also, which M... 
Allnic h-3000 power supply issue
I understand ya. Did you have any luck with any cables? Anything you did or did not like? I'm currently plugged into my Ps Audio P10 so I'll be experimenting with this and direct to the wall as wall.    Im currently using a NOS Brimar GZ32 and h... 
Allnic h-3000 power supply issue
@whart thanks for the guidance. I'm a bonehead and step 1 should have been to check the fuse. Blown. Replaced and back up and running. Testing out a Brimar 5V4G. I'll be following up on your H-3000 threads and guidance. I've heard stillpoints and ... 
Room Treaments - Where To Begin...
@grannyring I'm ok your heels at 3 months. My order was supposed to ship last week. Considering canceling as well. Be ready for delays with GIK.   
Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money?
@femoore12 I follow the thread on Reddit and it is an absolute cesspool. Cable deniers, clean power deniers all of it. It's really a place I choose not to even be involved in. It's like audioholics mixed with ASR with a bunch of 21 year old kids w... 
Selling off Tubes for Solid State, A Cooler Love Story?
@oldschool1948 thanks for the tips adding it to my wishlist.    @mglik AGD is added to my research list.   
Selling off Tubes for Solid State, A Cooler Love Story?
@jjss49 this is the anecdotal information I've been looking for. I have a very inexperienced interaction with anything but tubes so this is exactly what I was hoping for. So essentially I'd be able to lessen the heating of my room which is what I ... 
Selling off Tubes for Solid State, A Cooler Love Story?
@mulveling is the heat output that insufficient from Class A to say Class A/B? I'd imagine the fins on solid state amps tend to hold on to heat rather than dissipating it up into the air/surface. I use a portable air conditioner in the room in the... 
Selling off Tubes for Solid State, A Cooler Love Story?
@jjss49 this is exactly where I am at. Tubes are so fun, but on the power side of things the heat it generates is becoming too much. I would definitely keep my tubes if I wasn't in an upstairs room that gets sun all day.    @yogiboy I'll check o... 
Does Anyone Know What is Up with High Fidelity Cables?
I'm coming up on 3 months for GIK bass traps, ordered back in September. I'm guessing this is the law of the land for the next year of ordering products.   
Where the heck are all these manufacturers coming from!
@oldhvymec I work in the 925 area, I'm going to come see you sometime to check out your green thumb lol.   
Great experience with audio society and local tech
@oldhvymec this is exactly what I've been curious about. Im not sure if I can be dedicated enough to make a meet once a week and a few dealers I've done with in the Bay Area we're completely off-putting, so I could imagine how snoody groups could ... 
Is advice from a constant upgrader to be avoided
I'm an upgrader, but as a newbie I start at cheap or not knowing what in looking for so I buy something. Then I learn about what others like and what I'd like to move up to so I make the move. I'm glad I took the advice of others as my Musical Sur... 
Turntable and cartridge setup known for a marvelous bottom end.
I have personally moved from the Hana EH to the ML and if was a fantastic move. I also just recently moved the the Clearaudio Ovation from my Concept Wood and this was a fantastic move for bass and micro details. I can highly recommend these moves...
