Rectifier tubes? I have use both GZ37's and GZ34's in my amp. With the GZ34's the B+ is 425v and the amp has a very taught, muscular robust sound. With the GZ37's the B+ is 400v and the sound is more relaxed with more breath and ease but also slightly softer aroun... | |
Sophia Electric 91-01 and 91-5 300B I am very much enjoying my Sophia 91-05 output transformers and Sophia 300b mesh plates. | |
Speakers that do pianos really well Johnnyb53,Interesting response and most interesting that on my An-E's with my wife's very good ears we could pretty much tell it wasn't a Steinway. I think it is the attack on the 1981 Gould recording that gives it way. So many variables...wow. | |
Speakers that do pianos really well Wolf,Sounds like you have a cool gig. Every room sounds different which will effect the piano sound as well. | |
Speakers that do pianos really well To Marty's point--I have a ton of recorded piano music both jazz and classical and each recording sounds totally different. I have not felt it possible to come up with a standard reference recording. BTW my wife and I were listening to the 1981 Gl... | |
CALLING ALL YAMAMOTO A-O11 2A3 OWENERS / Charles 1,I listened to "Night Lights" on line. Very nice. Will put it on my list. I don't have much Art Farmer. | |
CALLING ALL YAMAMOTO A-O11 2A3 OWENERS / Totally agree with Charles 1 on his assessment of "Chet". I bought a vinyl copy a week ago and cannot get over how beautiful the trumpet sounds. It is as if Baker is somehow still breathing into his horn after he releases a note. Every phrase from... | |
CALLING ALL YAMAMOTO A-O11 2A3 OWENERS / 2nd "Chet" and would add "broken wing" both sound wonderful on Vinyl. | |
CALLING ALL YAMAMOTO A-O11 2A3 OWENERS / Thanks so much for your kind words Fortapache! I think most of the credit goes to my Audio Note speakers which I dearly love and come to respect more each day. They are on the warm side of neutral but as long a I taylor my electronics to complimen... | |
CALLING ALL YAMAMOTO A-O11 2A3 OWENERS / Charles,An interesting question and since our systems (speakers especially) are very different. Fortapache's Abbys/2a3 Yammamoto simply make music with immediacy and excellent pace with no embellishment. I was struck by agility of the 2a3/abby's. ... | |
CALLING ALL YAMAMOTO A-O11 2A3 OWENERS / Fortapache,It was my great pleasure to spend an afternoon with you and your lovely music making system. Thank you for turning me on to music that I had not heard before. Here's to Chet Baker!! Looking forward to seeing you this weekend in my home.... | |
Closest DAC to Vinyl Sound? Heyraz,The TeddyDAC or an Audio Note DAC would be choices generally thought to have the qualities you are looking for. What did you decide on? | |
DIY/Home Brew Taking A Risk I've had good luck with my home brew projects but have not ventured into trying to build box speakers. Too many variables and I don't have wood working skills enough to make beautiful cabinets. Open baffle speakers would be an easy DIY project to ... | |

Any Suggestions for SS Amp for Devore Nines? I heard the Nines/Pathos Twin Towers on serveral occations. Made beautiful music to my ears. You can get that amp used for under your price point. The amp is a Hybrid. Tubes on the front end. It gets very hot. Pure class A |
