Jolida jd-502p
Thanks for the tip Ghosthouse. I hadn't heard of tubemonger. I checked out the site and they have quite a bit of NOS tubes that are a bit different than what I saw on other sites. I shot them an e-mail about my JoLida 502P and the power tubes I'm ... 
rip mca, beastie boys rapper
I just listened to Paul's Boutique this morning. What a record. I had forgotten what an awesome album it was. To Onhwy61's point the Beastie Boys were slapped with a lawsuit regarding samples used on their albums around the time MCA had passed awa... 
So I just bought an Accuphase C-200
The Hosa power cord mentioned above isn't a direct fit with the Accuphase C200 or even the E202 Integrated. The IEC C9 end of the cord isn't wide enough.

R.I.P. MCA. He will be missed. I'm really saddened by this. I've always enjoyed the Beastie Boys music through the years. One of my favorites is MCA's bass playing on Sabotage. 
Jolida jd-502p
Hi JohnsonwuAgain my posts are never as funny as Wolf's but here goes. Thanks for posting the information you did. You saved me at least $100 on vintage 12AX7 and 12AT7 tubes. (More money for records now!) Even if I read the 12AX7 specs I never wo... 
Jolida jd-502p
Just an FYII contacted some tube sellers regarding 12AX7 alternatives for the Jolida JD-502P. Here is what they told me. I'm just sharing info. suggestions from Brent Jesee:12AX7 Mullard UK made OEM labels, 1960s12DF7 industrial low noise 12AX7, W... 
KT120 transformer failures
Hey WolfI got the KT-120s but my 502p is @ my local Jolida dealer getting upgraded. The guy is a tube expert so I trust him with modding the amp. In another couple of weeks I'll be able to enjoy the music as well as the buring smell you mention fr... 
Audiogon sellers, please stop and read this thread
Great response Operatenore. I hope someone can explain what is going on here. I kind of wish A'gon addressed this issue and then did something about it. They did want more ads to appear throughout the site with the upgrade.THolt also brings up som... 
McCormack DNA 0.5 vs. Parasound HCA 2003
Hi IrishTimYou can't message members anymore since the Audiogon website upgrade. Check out the SMc Audio website and the Contact Us tab on the left.http://www.smcaudio.com/Kris or Steve will get back to you quickly. I've contacted SMc this way man... 
DAC for 300-400 $
I think you should try a Grant Fidelity Tube DAC-11 or an older DAC-09 with a Western Electric tube in place of the stock one. It can power the Sennheiser HD-650 with no problem and is a great sounding combination IMO. 
Oppo BDP83SE vs Oppo BDP95
Hi Larry7When you compared the BDP83SE with the Oppo BDP95 were you using the unbalanced connections on both during your listening sessions?Thanks for posting your thoughts. 
Audiogon sellers, please stop and read this thread
I guess I'm the minority in thinking that in addition to sellers being on alert for these kinds of scams that Audiogon should be on the hook for policing these kinds of fraudulent sellers and keeping them out. I sold a bit of gear (but not big dol... 
KT120 transformer failures
Hi JohnsonwuI shall offer my reasoning for posting multiple questions about TCtubes throughout the forum here. It is not as funny as Wolf's though. When trying to price out places that sold the Tung Sol KT-120 and found that they offered a service... 
Audiogon sellers, please stop and read this thread
I've seen something like this on local classified listing sitess well. Besides sellers reporting these types of scams what else can be done to stop these thieves? Audiogon has all sorts of gear for sale. Some really big dollar. 
A quick sense of the kt120 tube
Hi JallenThanks for sharing your thoughts about th KT-120s. Good to know about the slight loss of top-end detail. I like a bit of detail in my music but sometimes I've been hit with a bit of harshness fro the highs with some of my previous systems...
