| DACed and Confused here... @charles1dad I knew the user name SETBliss had to be you and I am sure the new owner will enjoy your Yamamoto for many years to come. | |
| DACed and Confused here... If you are willing to buy used I cannot recommend highly enough the Yamamoto YDA-1 the Dac I'm listening to right now. Here is one on Audiomart below your price range and I do believe the seller may be our own @charles1dad judging by the Dueland c... | |
| What news in 2023 struck you? +1 @viridian Fremer to TAS seemed sacrilegious lol. And @roxy54 I didn't know Salk retired sad news. I'd say the sale of ARC was a big one and I am personally curious about the recent sale of Roon to Harman though I am not a Roon user. | |
| "Diminishing Returns" Kenny you've hit on one of the secrets of audio, older great sounding gear still sounds great! The only pieces younger than 10 years in my system are my streamer and my speakers. And needless to say it sounds fantastic! | |
| Do people tire of audio forums? I've been on this forum for gulp 24 years now and it's totally a part of my life I can't quit.😋 | |
| She loves me she loves me not! My speakers don't come with grills so I have nothing to lose so to speak. 😄I also generally prefer the off look. | |
| Has anyboyd used this amp, your thoughts on it @jasonbourne71 I was merely reading back what the description was on Ebay, a total hatchet job. | |
| Has anyboyd used this amp, your thoughts on it I'd avoid it first it's an SET amp but it's class AB that's just weird, also at an output of 16wpc they are pushing those two EL34 tubes pretty hard. Not good for tube life or amp life. | |
| Sunfire Classic Tube Pre-Amp According to the manual link you posted with phono if I'm reading this right there would be 9 tubes?! Tube type and location Phono Board V1 6DJ8 or 6922 MC amp V2 6DJ8 or 6922 MC amp V3 6DJ8 or 6922 MC amp V4 12AX7 MM amp V5 12AX7 MM amp V6 6DJ8 ... | |
| What was the first power cable that you noticed a difference in the sound? For me it was a Cerious Technology cord one of the early ones I forget the exact model. | |
| Sonus Faber Damped Apex Dome Coming Loose Are you speaking of this piece of what I assume is metal in front of the tweeter? I would assume that would be a pretty easy fix maybe reach out to SF or a local dealer for instructions? Â | |
| Amp first approach to build a system. Anyone did it ? inna I did the same thing pretty much back when I started I was obsessed about tube amps so focused on amps first and speakers later. I now would do that totally backwards and was fortunate to end up with a well balanced system. | |
| Red Rose R3 Speakers jacytoy no comment on your findings but wanted to say you have quite the collection of speakers and gear in general! | |
| How long does it take your tube amp to warm up? My amps are SETs and a very simple low parts circuit and sound good right out of the box. It's possible they start to sound better after 30 mins or so but wouldn't want to bet my life on it. |
