Jolida 502B upgrading to Accuphase E206
Hi RattosecondWhen I had the Jolida 502P and the Accuphase E-202 together in a system the Jolida had a tube complement of Penta Labs KT-88SC, Preferred 7025s and Penta 12AT7s. They were powering a pair of KEF Q300s. I would say the Accuphase E202 ... 
Jolida 502B upgrading to Accuphase E206
Here is a video I found on the Accuphase E206.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwZr7YUGC7gI own a Jolida 502P amp but only have vintage Accuphase gear. An E202 Integrated to be exact which is a lot older than the E206 or the Jolida.To me it is like ... 
Review: Nordost Red Dawn Interconnect
Would factory terminated Nordost Red Dawn Interconnects be good from a phono preamp to preamp? I was thinking about connecting a Hagerman Bugle phono preamp to my Accuphase C200 preamp with the Red Dawn ICs. Thanks 
Anyone ever purchased tubes from gstube.com?
Thanks Joe for the lead. I've bookmarked the site for future reference. The tubes are a lot more expensive than ordering from gstube or rutubes dot com but the peace of mind from buying from UpScale is an added bonus. 
A question on a B&W high pass filter
Hi EleeI'll work on the original and then save up the money to upgrade the parts after listening to it for a bit. From the pictures on the Ken Rockwell site the box seems small and really tight space for a novice like me to work with.I have seen t... 
Anyone ever purchased tubes from gstube.com?
I was researching 6C33C tubes and found this older thread. GStube is still around and was wondering if anyone had any dealings with them recently? In all these years has anyone purchased tubes from GStube? If so what were your thoughts on the tube... 
A question on a B&W high pass filter
Hi EleeThanks for the input. I'm following your suggestion. I wonder if I do get the variable version if I should pay to have the parts upgraded. From pictures I've seen of the interior it doesn't look so bad. The power supply I couldn't tell thou... 
Turn table
I'd also check out NeedleDoctor. The staff there is very helpful with thoughts and recommendations on gear they have for sale vs what you have. 
A question on a B&W high pass filter
I found this thread via google when I was researching a question about these filters. I was able to get a B&W 801 high pass filter. This one doesn't have the dip switches to set the filter to a specific 800 series speaker. It is preset for the... 
Anyone tried the original Playstation 1 for CD?
My PS1 CDP has thinner inch long brass footers and I believe they helped since my PS1 vibrates a lot to me. I just don't remember what my results were before the brass footers were installed. I too agree with KBuzz's sonic views on the PS1. 
Clear Day cables vs. Morrow Audio Cables
Also as an FYI. Morrow Audio is having another 25% off sale this week on new cables. I may check out some .5 meter interconnects. I have the MA 1.1 and am happy with them. 
MFY Tungsol 6550 tube old versions
Have you tried contacting Brent Jessee or Jim McShane? Those are to NOS tube experts. They should be able to help you. 
Tube dampers/coolers effect on preamp sound?
Hi RmcfeeI would say it would depend on a lot of things. What was the piece of equipment the dampers were used in? What kind of damper was employed? There are many kinds now. From silicone rings to brass rings with a ground wire.I've used silicone... 
Anyone tried the original Playstation 1 for CD?
I have a slightly modified PS1 as a CDP. I leave it on all the time and it is a fine player. For me in my set-up the sound of the PS-1 is a lot more of a laid back vs. other players. That isn't a bad thing, just different. I compared the PS-1 to a... 
Cones under a suspended table?
Hi SyntaxI thought for Direct Drive turntables softer isolation was to be used and for suspended turntables cones, blocks more rigid isolation was to be used. I'm stumped yet again.
