| Best 845 tube out there? The WE845 is the best tube I heard in my system. It is clear, organic, warm, fast and dynamic. I hear no negatives with this tube. It is worth every penny considering original RCA's go for 800-1200 a pop. I would not give these up for and old RCA ... | |
| Best 845 tube out there? Tcscata your review is spot on. I hear the exact things that you do. These are much better than the original RCA tubes. | |
| Sadly missed manufacturers Yankee ribon Was this speaker ever made and did he ever sell one? I doubt it. VMPS, Altis Audio (Howard Mandel), Timbre Technology (David Goldstein), MFA tube amps (Scott Frankland & Bruce Moore), Electron Kinetics Eagle Amplifier, Forsel, Ara... | |
| Ocellia cables IC why not much talk? Just heard Charles1dad Ocellia Ref. Digital cable between my Lampizator Dac and PS Audio Transport. This cable gave me the best sound I ever had in my home. I kid you not. Huge soundstage, air, natural tonality, warmth and imaging. I have a WyWire... | |
| Best 845 tube out there? Goldeneraguy I heard the Elrog in the Absolare amps at CES 2013 and they sounded fantastic. I heard they are not the most reliable tube and of course very expensive. I have not compared them directly to the WE845, but I bet it would give them a go... | |
| Best 845 tube out there? Tcscata I'm glad you like the WE845 tubes. They are so clear and quiet its startling. They make your system sound their best. If your system is towards the lean side it won't hide it. The original RCA tubes are much more colored and remind me of t... | |
| Another DAC bits and Hz question Steve you should put your synchro-mesh converter in the Offramp 5 as well. People could then use it with their cd transports for reclocking and also use it for higher bit downloads. They wouldn't have to buy both boxes. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Audiolabyrinth I agree with you 100%. When I first got into analog I did not have a turntable and a phono stage. So what did I do? I bought tons and tons of records. I probably did not hear any of them for at least a year. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house I was thinking of the apprentice stands. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house My good friend Charles1dad brought over his digital cable that he does not use anymore. The rca cable transformed my system and I'm am now getting the best sound I ever had at my place. It took away a very slight edge and added bass weight and bea... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Goopher is right the Big 6 uses the 16 bit phillips chip. I did not want to go with that chip as I wanted to be able to play 24/192 files as well. | |
| Why aren't new vacuum tubes as good as old ones? Yes of course the RCA's sound different than the Sylvania's. I don't know why that should be the case since factories know the specs on how the tubes should be made. It may be slight differences in materials or tolerance in the parts. | |
| Why aren't new vacuum tubes as good as old ones? All these new tubes are basically 845,300B, etc. If your looking at signal tubes like 12ax7,12au7,6922,6SN7, etc. the new old stock from the 40-60's sound way better than any tube from China or Russia in my opinion. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Good Lord I just got my Big 5 with Dueland caps today and after one hour I am getting the best digital sound I ever had. What can I expect with 200 hours or when it is fully broken in. I wonder if I even need to try new old stock tubes for the out... | |
