| Top resistors I have been using Allen Bradley 2watt 1k for the Cathode resistor. (R6 on the Joe Roberts 91a Schematic).A friend lent me 2 watt AN tantalums. Wow the detail is addictive..really natural, warm and beautiful. The only problem in my particular syste... | |
| What is best way to learn to build own equipment? Build a Spud amp kit. Jerry Curtis offers one. This amp is distributed by Hawthorne Audio. You may enjoy reading about their open baffle speakers which could also be a nice DYI project. | |
| Hey Tube Rollers - Thoughts on Shanguang Psvane? Got Psvane 300b's from partsconnexion. They have 250 hours so far. Sound pretty good and making music, but missing some transparency. Good extended low/high frequency response. Not yet as enjoyable as my Sophia Mesh.The Psvanes probably need more ... | |
| Hookup wire for tube amplifier? Dracule1,Could you put into words what you mean by "Zing"?I listen to alot of classical and in the bow of the string I sometimes notice something that sounds sort of plastic. I should say, I notice it very infrequently. Larryi, Sounds like your pr... | |
| Hookup wire for tube amplifier? How do you like the Duelands? The TFTF V-caps sound good but sometimes I think I hear the teflon. (might be my imagination :)) May try AN copper caps. | |
| Hookup wire for tube amplifier? Dracule,Would love to see pictures of your amp and system. Bet is sounds wonderful. That Goldpoint attenuator was a good move. Nice that copper is working for you. I dont think there is a one way. I am conituing to add silver little by little. The... | |
| Hookup wire for tube amplifier? I have been voicing my homebrew 91a 300b amp for the past 10 months. I built the initial breadboard with Radio Shack 18 gauge solid core "mystery" wire and the amp sounded just fine. Now that the amp is kinda of finished I am still voicing it. The... | |
| Testing 845 tubes in the NYC area? Try Leeds radio in Brooklyn | |
| Shuguang Treasure and Psvane 300b tubes Thanks all.Ended up getting an on sale pair of the Psvane 300B-Ts at Parts Connexion. | |
| Favorite Pianists Evgeny Kissin playing Chopin. magic, poetry. | |
| Top resistors From what I have read it is a good practise to not use just one brand of resistor in your project. The result could start to sound too much like that resistor.A hint that a friend sent me about Alen-Bradley carbon resistors: bake them at 180 degre... | |
| amplification for devore fidelity nines ? Although I no longer own the Pathos TT, I really liked it driving the Devore Nines. Plenty of power to drive the woofers. Very deep soundstage. | |
| Almarro a318B and Audio Note ANe Speakers Thank you Janj1. I have breadboarded a WE91A 300b amp with Audio Note output transformers. Am enjoying listening to it drive the ANe's. The amp has good pace and a lovely smooth tone. Once I am through tinkering with the sound, will need to deside... | |
| Where to go after Devore Fidelity Super 8's Spent a considerable amount of time with the Nine's (wonderful speaker!!) before settling on the Audio Note AN-E. | |
| Almarro a318B and Audio Note ANe Speakers Thnaks all.Anyone out there have personal expirience with this combo? |
