musica bella tube preamp Based on another 6922 thread just dropped in some Matsushita / National 7DJ8's in my preamp and they sound fantastic. Got them from Upscale Audio $35 each for Platinum Grade. The thread I'm referencing is here:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussio... | |
musica bella tube preamp kedoades congrats on your new preamp! And people always say they hear new things because they do! Or at least imagine it :) As far as tube rolling goes good advice to hang in for a while let your tubes burn in a bit and get used to the sound. Wha... | |
6922 Tubes! Got my tubes today thanks Upscale and USPS for super fast shipping and delivery! Installed and fired them up about 45 minutes ago, right off the bat I'm getting greater transparency, a bit more airy high frequencies without brightness, and a touch... | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables jeffrey75 thanks for coming back and clearing that up and I read your post before you deleted it and thought it was fine. But I understand your reluctance to mix it up being new. Bob stop replying to this thread and make more cables! Faster! :p | |
Useful $20 gadget alert mapman thanks for the tip looks like just what I need for my old car radio just ordered one! | |
anyone stream using livephish app or youtube into their main rig? Listening to last night in Mexico right now solid not great show but so freaking jealous of my friends who are there! | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Bob congratulations and I wish much happiness to you and your lovely new wife! Enjoy your well deserved time off! | |
Luxman SQ-N100 noise If the line direct button bypasses the preamp tubes and sounds fine then yes it is very likely a failing preamp tube or tubes. The tube types you need are easy to find and can be replaced fairly cheaply I would recommend replacing them. | |
6922 Tubes! Just ordered 6 of the National Matsushita 7DJ8 platinums from Upscale should be here next Tuesday. Excited to see how they sound! | |
Looking for a Speaker Recommnedation Here's a slightly outside the box rec, Audio Note AN/e's, fantastic sounding, full range, fairly sensitive, easy to place in a room of almost any size. Prices range from $5000 to as high as you can imagine prices changing based on internal compone... | |
Which is better Coax or Optical cables @thankful If this is your setup as you listed it: Oppo 105DPrimaluna Dialogue Premium IntegratedEmerald Physics KC II Pro speakers I don’t see how you would need a digital cable at all, your integrated doesn’t have a built in Dac nor do you mentio... | |
What do I Need in Order to Stream digital content and Store & Play CD's ? @donjr If you are asking me I have an Auralic Aries Mini which streams wirelessly from my NAS drive and also streams Tidal. Its connected to my dac with an spdif rca cable. I control it using their remote app Lightning DS on my ipad mini. Very si... | |
What do I Need in Order to Stream digital content and Store & Play CD's ? You can simply add a streaming device and I don't understand you saying your dac has no digital inputs? A quick google shows it has 5 inputs you can certainly run an spdif rca cable or toslink from most streaming devices right to your Classe Dac. ... | |
Far Cheaper than a $3000 Music Server Yes you can do this but you've put aside a number of issues, besides streaming radio. Your own files, other streaming services, sound quality etc. There are many ways to approach this Erik's rec is certainly valid, being less computer savvy I went... | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables @ozzy On the subject of banana connectors versus spades you may want to reconsider, I went all banana connectors on my speaker cables despite Bob strongly recommending spades. Sure enough a banana sheared off from the weight of the cables on the s... |
