6922 tube recommendations Please look at the tubes being sold by member "Tcscata"6H23 are perfect for 6922. I use them in my tube buffer and they sound fantastic! I mean better than $200/pr tubes for much much less. Just check them out before you buy. | |
Lively and Dynamic SS Preamp... Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE fits all your needs | |
Do better ingredients make a better Ground Wire? Ozzy, where do you place them as both leads are hot, only 180 degrees out of phase from each other?John | |

Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Since the resistor changes with the amount of light, could I open the case and use a light bulb with a remote dimmer to change the volume? | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? George,Are you, or could you, consider making a fully balanced version with some sort of remote volume function? | |
Anyone listening to 24/196? All the time. I download them from HD Tracks and play them on my Blacknote DSS which accepts the format. |
