Transport & tweaks for audio logic 24MXL
Rcprince's advice is spot on. As a long time AL owner, listen to his thoughts carefully. I am among the crowd of AL owners who have an earlier model, in my case the M34DSB. I use a CEC TL2 and the combination works very well. If you search the thr...

I have not had experience with the 12AU7 family in this amp, but I have had quite a bit of experience with the tube family. If you wish to read a long dissertation on many different 12AU7 variants, search on Audio Asylum for comments by Robert H. ... 
HELP - Electrical / Wiring with new build of home
Based upon my experience in recently installing a new 200A service in our home (yes, I abide by all of the rules and had it inspected multiple times) here is what I have observed:1: The service to the meter base will be provided by your local powe... 
That dreaded hum
As noted above, the Mondial device is still available, and there are other similar solutions. Before doing anything else, I would suggest to check to ensure that the installed cable connection coming into your house is grounded correctly. Many old...

I haven't. In all honesty, I don't recall anyone posting on AG regarding using them with AL. One other thing I will add regarding input connections. When I spoke with JO, I intentionally asked him about ST-Optical and he was not particularly posit...

I have an older unit, M34SB, so the balanced OUT is not an option for me. As for input, with all of the usual disclaimers, in my system, with my gear, for my tastes, etc, at one point I made a comparision using identical cables (brand, length, etc... 
The worlds ultimate toy

"Bedini Ultra Clarifier", does it really work??
Jim:Based upon your comments in other threads (like NOS tubes for SF Line 1) you have a clear head and a conscious mind. In the end, you are the only one you need to please. With that said, and IMO, and based upon my experience, I find that the Be...

Which Audiologic dac was the first to go 24 bit?
Pat and I have spoken a number of times regarding tubes in the M34, but I didn't want to steal his thunder. I have an M34DSB which, like Pat, I love and enjoy. As regards your question about tube placement in the 34, looking from the front, the 12...

NOS tubes for Sonic Frontiers Line 1
Jim: Please post your observations when you get the Herbie's Dampers. I am interested to hear how you like them and what changes you observe. Gary 
Anyone else feel left out?
Jw: Rsbeck makes a very valid suggestion. But in the more traditional approach, I would suggest that there is a middle ground that can be very satisfying. It takes patience, but attractive deals do come along. You must know what you are looking f... 
NOS tubes for Sonic Frontiers Line 1
Jim: Forgot one thing......based upon my experience I have found absolutely wonderful benefits with tubes using good isolation and dampers. I am currently using Townshend Seismic Sinks (need one more for my pre) and Herbie's Tube Dampers everywher...
