| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) Dang, typed a bunch of stuff and the site freaked out! Not going to spend more time trying to deal with the picture upload (archaic), but basically I get ~2/16th of a rotation for XLR from 0 to 68 dB at 15', and a a bit more than 3/16th for RCA. ... | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) @jaybe they might have changed the LR balance pots, mine clearly were labelled Honeywell and were designed for ATVs and crude motorized controls. Re the Alps, I doubt it looking at the Alps component catalog. If they still had the premium $100 ... | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) @immatthewj Good advice on the 5AR4s. As long as the power rectifier circuit was well designed any change of tube should have a minimal effect. At that point it should be noted that variations in tube production over the years might also have j... | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) @immatthewj It sounds like we have essentially the exact same unit (depressions and all), excepting the ultimate upgrade. I am curious, but the cost is definitely a factor. The mix and matching is truly the appeal, with the variety 6sn7s out t... | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) @immatthewj Hi there! Good point for the discussion, no mine does not. I bought it 2014 as well, it probably has around 7000 hours on it. The upgrade package reportedly has a complete capacitor overhaul, which could affect the SQ in a numbe... | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) I haven’t tried the Rothwells, so I cannot comment on those directly. In regards to attenuators, there are some things that should definitely be pointed out. First off, any attenuator that isn’t matched to output and impedance runs the risk of i... | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) Hello all, I thought it would be worthwhile to add to this thread as the unit does have a ton of gain that will severely limit use of the main volume pot. After reading through this thread and others, there has been some good information and some... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @tooblue there is a post in this thread closer to the beginning where the person had a buzzy tube on startup. The advice relayed was from Brent Jessen who has a procedure to try to resolve a similar problem. Orient a certain way, tap the tube g... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes The arcing is definitely concerning. Do you have another amp to verify that problem so you can say it is the amp or the tube? Regardless, I would contact Dennis Had (or however you purchased) for advice. Assuming it has a soft start feature, t... | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing @jjss49 Appreciate the post and replies! | |
| Qobuz Issue Interesting, I'm having the same issue of not being able to use a credit card. Different cards, different devices, subscription or purchase, nothing work. I figured I would look at the PayPal interface, though I haven't used that account in ~10 ... |
