| What does Nominal Impedance mean? + another @milpai almarg is the one poster who could immediately answer any question! And I agree with @dweller nominal in this sense means average, | |
| Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k @charles1dad and @carlsbad2 excellent discussion I'll just say I found myself dissatisfied with tubes amps until I heard my first pushpull Class A triode wired amp, since then I've never wanted anything else. 😉 | |
| Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k Daedalus has been pairing with LTA at audio shows for several years now so it 's a natural match. I quite liked their Z10 integrated last time I heard it at CAF. As usual @charles1dad has some excellent suggestions the AN Oto in particular is a sw... | |
| Prospectives on Chi-Fi The column is not about east vs west it simply states that Chinese manufacturing pervades hifi and pretty much every other industry whether you like it or not. | |

| KT66s in place of KT88 tubes @weebeesdad what jjss49 said is essentially correct though I'd say the blurring and loss of transient speed is overstated. To me EL34s, KT66s and 77s just sound more like tubes, higher powered KT variants might as well be solid state. | |
