| Bragging rights..... Good for you @mapman !I would like to go simpler also,but our WIFI here is not reliable enough to go that route. Enjoy:-) | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @aricaudio no big deal. I don't have a very memorable moniker:-) I do have a small update regarding using the Herbies dampers on the input tube. They usually don't have a positive effect IME.One exception was with a CJ preamp that I owned long ag... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today I don't have DWs but do have Omen Defs.No one ever speaks of them though,lol!Reading about DWs and other Zu products is always of interest though.Which components compliment their sound,positioning in peoples rooms, etc.I was completely smitten w... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @aricaudio it's not exactly new,lol.I've had it for a few years now. It's the star of my system.I'll take both yours and danmar's advice and get another tube.I've already ordered a couple of larger size dampers to fool around with.Thanks for your ... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Has anyone tried tube dampers on the shouldered tube?I tried a Herbies damper on the top of the tube - no change. Then the next day tried it on the bottom glass just above the base.The vocals improved immensely and lost the hashiness that had beg... | |

| Audiophile Jargon Demonstrated The terms can be demonstrated. You'll know it when you hear it.Take PRaT for instance. One system will have you tapping your toes and really feeling the rhythm and another will have all the right notes but lack the livleyness - no PRaT. | |
| Schiit's solid-state 6SN7 But why? | |
| Sternklang Cables I'm a big fan of ribbon cables, having tried four different brands over the years. I try other types but end up going back to them. I have ZenWave currently. Some are a better match than others,but what they all have in common is an organic sound. | |
| Looking for good recordings of female vocals I have not yet tried... Joan Baez -Ring Them Bells (Live) Joni Mitchell - no faves Janis Ian - Breaking Silence Shawn Colvin - no faves Mary Chapin Carpenter - no faves (sort of country) | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes So I finally ordered and received today one Linlia high (shouldered) for the input of my Aric Audio Transcend PP.Very impressive! Delicate and refined was my first impression. The separation of instruments is a little better and the soundstage a l... | |
| How can I find out more about Zu Audio Omen Def Supreme @atanarjuat99 I live in a very small town also, so I get it.Something large that is a royal pain to ship back if it's not right for you is cause for anxiety. Good luck as you're making a decision :-) | |
| Jude-not Julian Lennon You've spoken to them to tell us the facts? Ok.I always thought Brown Sugar was about a woman. Specifically about one of the Stone's back up singers that he had a relationship with for a while. | |
| Speaker Questions Polks are good for HT not so much for music. The Polks twenty plus years ago were pretty darn good but now they cater to car audio and HT. | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? A really excellent thread!I purchased my first high efficiency speakers a year ago and will never go back.The "lit from within" observation previously mentioned is addictive. |
