| Splitter tube in ASL Hurricanes DT MK2 Scan the schematic and send an image to me at jeffreybenr@cox.net and I'll opine.The three-6SN7s 'Canes used the two sections of the outer 'N7s as a phase splitter and then cathode follower, the latter apparently necessary to drive all those '88s.. | |

| Review: McCormack DNA-250 Amplifier carja, your response to your '250 is about the same as mine to my '750s....'musical and muscular' indeed. What the '750s have is a sense of ease...effortlessness...that I had not heard before. Here's my story about my '750s.http://www.audiocircle.... | |
| Can I bridge Rotel RB 1080 Toddmorr, FWIW, I do not hear the slight softening of treble energy that Moncrieff wrote about, but probably he has better hearing than I.The sound thru the '750s has a natural, musical bloom that I've never heard before except from Monarchy SE160... | |
| Best replacement tubes for my CJ PV14L have M8080 I have an MET1; it uses 6 M8080s. The US version is indeed the 6C4, but that tube apparently was NOT designed for audio the way the M8080 is; the vast majority of 6C4s I bought, often by the half-dozens or dozens, were VERY microfonic and I tossed... | |
| best used multichannel amp for the money...? .I'm sure they have their fans, from whom I'll catch hell for this, but I want true-high-end-quality sound from my multichannel* (MC) poweramp, and I stay away from Rotel, Parasound, and ATI. I know nothing about Emotive and little about Sunfire, ... | |
| Can I bridge Rotel RB 1080 Toddmore, I also feel that your speakers need and 'deserve' MUCH-higher-quality amps. I have a pair of Vandersteen 5As, also rather power hungry, and I would have never believed the overall improvements in SQ by going with a higher-quality, much-h... | |
| Cary SLP-05 Output Capacitor Question M, understand that all the tubed circuits with coupling caps that I've seen have a shunt resistor following the cap, and that value is in parallel with the input impedance of the device the preamp's driving. Be careful to include that value in you... | |
| Interconnects for SACD multi-channel Pdn, I use Audioquest Niagara for the front-L/R channels, AQ Panther for center, and AQ Copperhead for Surrounds, all half-meter lengths...from an Oppo '95 to a c-j MET1 tubed preamp. They all sound quite good and I have NO plans to replace them. ... | |
| What are the best amps for B&W N802's? McCormack DNA-750s, 650-Watt monoamps. The best I've ever heard, and I too didn't think I needed that much power.. | |
| Tape Loop Testing On A Preamp? "If it's working you will not hear anything - the music will keep on playing." Those are opposites, New. If the loop is working, Licorice will indeed hear something, since the music will continue playing.. | |
| Fuses that matter. Russe41: "I have some that were conditioned under the northern lights(very transparent) and there only $199 a piece if your interested?"Only if you learn to spell the abbrevations for 'they are' and 'you are' and stop ending sentences with a quest... | |
