| Top resistors Bigkidz,That rotary switch is great idea and thus provides instant results. Nice! I will have to try the Shinkoh's when I begin to "voice" my newly built phono pre.It's good to keep in mind that I/all of us have different ears and listening priori... | |
| Top resistors After a month with the TX2757 in the 6C6 cathode position, including bypassing them with Black Gate Caps I decided to pull these resistors. They did not provide the richness and room filling sound that the A-B's and the older AN Tantalum did. A fe... | |
| Classical Record Labels and Recording Engineers... Wow, what an amazing post!! Thanks to all. | |
| Top resistors Every time I have changed the 6C6 cathode resistor I have heard a sonic difference and it is not subtle. This is a single ended amp with a low parts count. When I pulled the bypass capacitor that made made a dramatic difference in sound as well as... | |
| Sound is DARK / FORWARD / TRANSPARENT? Sound and the way people hear it is a very individual thing just like the way people experience wine. Putting these sensuous stimuli into absolute terminology will always fall short. Wine descriptions crack me up. For example when trying to descri... | |
| Sound is DARK / FORWARD / TRANSPARENT? These terms are relative to ones experience. If you visit an audio shop or a friends house and hear their systems you will form an opinion of the sonic characteristics of that particular system and hopefully retain a sonic memory of that system. ... | |
| Top resistors After 60 hours the the Vishay TX2575 are starting to sound really nice. That crispness that the AN Tants had in the hi frequenies that was bothering me is not present in the Vishays. The high end seems very natural. So far there is richness, natur... | |
| Top resistors The Vishays arrived and I installed them in the 6C6 cathode position. Will report back in a week after some burn in time | |

| Top resistors Prcinka, Cant find much info on how the Amtrans AMRG sound. Can you shed some light? | |
| Top resistors The AN Tants I borrowed are the previous version of the AN type; Audio Note is now making a newer version with non-magnetic copper end caps.I am going to get the TX2575 and be mindful that if I hear too much hi end emphasis there may be something ... | |
| Top resistors And perhaps I have been over compensating for the warm A-B's by doing things like removing the grid caps. I will check with the guy who lent me the Tants to see how old they are. I do know they were fully broken in since he had been using them in ... | |
| The Lawyers Have Taken Over Audio Whart,I agree. Here in Brooklyn, There is a sort of vinyl renaissance going on. A smart hi fi shop would be all over this with just the kinds of things you are talking about. In Living Stereo recently had a listening night featuring the Beatles re... | |
| Top resistors Salectric,I put the A-B's back in after trying the tants. I dont understand it either but the high frequency emphasis was undeniable. That is why I mentioned in my post that it could be something peculiar in my system. For instance, I pulled the c... | |
| The Lawyers Have Taken Over Audio My thought turns to spending time with my sister over Christmas and her plans to make a dedicated listening room. Imagine my excitement that I could help her "upgrade" a few components to increase her listening enjoyment. So we go upstairs and tur... |
