Sonic Frontiers preamps tube eaters?? Joel, I perfer the Amperex over the tele for the critical positions. The tele are nice but just a tad laid back for me. Tubemonger has always provided good stuff and I have never had any problems with his tubes. AA FAQ page has some good info you ... | |
Sonic Frontiers preamps tube eaters?? Jolen1aub, Check out the Amperex US made PQ white lable 6922 E88cc tubes for the critical positions, a bit costly but have been my favorites. For a bit less cash the Mullard 6922/CV2493 low noise GT. Britain tubes are nice too. | |

What's under your Neuance platform Tvad, thanks for the info on sorbathane. I have some Audioquest sorothane feet that I don't use for anything so I'll give those a shot too. Any clue you have as to the softness (durometer) you would go with? | |
What's under your Neuance platform Jade, I like the bubble wrap idea, it looks like you use larger wrap than smaller, do you have a preference over larger vs smaller wrap? When inserting the Neuances it made a nice sonic improvement and I'm using four large brightstar iso-nods unde... | |
