| Preamp Deal of the Century One more thing. I got my NOS, NIB Sylvania 6F6G's yesterday. After leaving the SyrTese on for a couple of hours while we went out for oysters, it was time for some serious listening and drinking. The system was ready after leaving one of those lit... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Quick question: Are Cello and I the only ones with the 6c45pi tube in the phono stage? Vade was kind enough to email a link for new Reflektors, but the seller is in Europe, and his minimum order is $140. That's 13 tubes. SO' I'll make the order if... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? My cat, but if you read the thread under amps, you know it won't be there for long!! | |
| How do I keep my cats off my amplifier? I've got a dog, and a BB gun. The BB gun works better on the cat. I don't think the Airzooka packs enough punch. I must say, I like the "big stick, rusty nail" approach. Why do yuo people always do this to me when I'm drinking! | |
| Audionote Soro SE, or cheaper single-ended? Carl,Good point, but I disagree. And, I don't think they are overpriced at retail (sorta, read on). Given the state of quality tube integrateds that are out there now, I feel the Soro should be one of the major players. Plus the phono stage is ver... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century They are round plates. I actualy got them on ebay, and he has more, buy it now only, at $15 each. Here is the link to the ad:Ebay 6F6G His name is David. He has eight left, of different brands. I should have bought all of the ST shaped tubes, but ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Well, the pair of WE350b's went back for a refund, but the good news is I managed to find the Sylvania 6F6g for $35 a pair shipped. Here is a picture:I hope this is the right one. David, if you look at the pic and say it is, I will post a link whe... | |
| Power cable for Supratek Syrah? I don't know about power cords, but you need to shit-can those 6l6's. Trust me on this. EVERYTHING I've tried has sounded better. | |
| Cayin vs. Antique Sound Labs I'd agree. Once you start chasing the dragon, you'll never stop. And if you do treat your wife, she'll most likely look more favorably on future purchases! | |
| Audionote Soro SE, or cheaper single-ended? I understand your point, and yes I have heard it. I should have been more specific. I didn't compare the Waves or the Hurricanes. I only said "The ONLY ASL..." And I never said it was in any way deficient. But Crazy, you are correct, I was a littl... | |
| Budget MC Suggestions? Restock is right. In my overzealous pursuit of giving kudos to the 103r, I forgot that your arm has to be able to handle it! Like Dan I ordered a Shure also. SInce they are being discontinued, I figured why not. See what I mean, once you get start... | |
| Audionote Soro SE, or cheaper single-ended? I agree with Phil & Carl too. I also have the Soro SE Phono, and a pair of ASL Wave 8's. I like the Wave's a lot. I like the Soro a lot more. I know the Wave's are not the same as the Fox, but the only ASL amps I've heard that I like better th... | |
| Budget MC Suggestions? 1. No1a. See #11b. $400+ Denon 103r, about 250, & K&K step up, about 2002. Detail, detail , detail!Some would say that your Shure is a better setup than the Denon. I think they are both fine cartridges for the money, and use the 103r mysel... | |
| Who has the oldest speakers? I've got a mid-sixties pair of AR's, I think they are 3a's. Dad bought 'em new, and I've had them for 20 years. Shit, now I'll have to dig them out and see how they sound! | |
| Great buys on new blues vinyl Patrick,Nice link. I just spent about $200 there, damnit! And they are over 200 in vinyl now.Joe |
