| Why no tube loaner/testdrives--It's hard being an audiophile Wow, I have a lot of tubes laying around. My last amp used KT66 and 6922. Now my new preamp and amp. Use EL34's, 12AX7, 12AT7, 6SN7 and 12AU7's. Oh well just have to but more tubes. Like another here my new preamp can use either 6SN7 or 12SN7 tube... | |
| Advice using electrostats with tube amp. I have tried quite a few different amps with my JansZen hybrid electrostats. They are 87db sensitive and it's been dificult finding the right amp to mate with them until I tried the Linear Tube Audio ZOTL40. No impedance problem here. The beauty o... | |
| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio I've talked to him before. He can be a real Dick. | |
| If NOS pre or power tubes became unavailable altogether, what new tubes would you buy? The Gold Lion KT 77's sound great in my ZOTL40, only NOS Mullard EL34 are better. | |
| Please help! - Buy VPI Classic or keep Technics 1200 I recently purchased the Technics SL1200 GAE and sold my VPI Scout as fast as I could. This is my last stop TT. If there were any weaknesses with the original 1200 those problems have been solved. So if you have 4K to spend the SL1200G is available. | |
| Three way shootout... I can only speak about the DS DAC (not Jr.) and being able to run Ethernet cable from the server in another room is an advantage for me not to mention the sound is awesome. I have 3 systems, one on each floor using the same server source and Ether... | |
| Specific Pre-Amp advice I have the Micro ZOTL and the newer MZ2-S pre. This is a world class preamp with a real world price. I can't even explain how good it is but if you read up on David Berning's designs you will begin to understand. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Mac, how far away from the wall is optimal? I think my current Monitor Audio speakers are about 2' away. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts mac48025, I am interested in your impressions of these speakers with your new LTA gear when it comes. I agree with others posters here that the Linear Tube Audio MZ2-S and ZOTL40 are great bang for the buck products and are also world class amps a... | |
| I've decided to try Tubes I'm in a perpetual state of cookie popping | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables I too get tired of the trolling. I would love it if ptss would share his audio system with us. I see nothing on his page. Mom won't let you have a big boy stereo in the basement? Perhaps he can share a bio since he tries to sound intelligent. Perh... | |
| I've decided to try Tubes After hearing a Linear Tube Audio amp, I sold all of my Decware gear and rebuilt 2 systems. This LTA stuff is incredible. | |
| Specific Pre-Amp advice Linear tube Audio MZ2-S. I just got one. I ordered it with remote and 3 inputs. Comes with a very good linear power supply. Biggest bang for the buck I've ever seen. | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables I agree with mac48025. I just got a another pair of the speaker cables for a second system and I love what I hear. The best cables in my system ever and I've tried a few. I don't care if the cables are made of fairy dust although some people will ... | |
| My personal experience with Direct Drive versus Belt Drive I absolutely love my new SL1200GAE. I got another head shell and installed my old Zepher cart that I was using with my Scout 1.1 so I could make a better comparison. The SL1200 sounds superior in every way I can think of, superior PRAT and the DD ... |
