Cayin A50t biasing problem
I have 2 meters so I don't think its the meter. There isn't a switch to select the pots so I can't figure this out 
Cayin A50t biasing problem
Hi Newbee....I rotated in three different quads including a new quad of SED winged c's and what I am getting is a maximum of about 20ma. Being in all four pots is puzzling. 
Cayin A50t biasing problem
To answer Williamredburry idea...I do have a very small reading of about 15-20 MW so I think I have a circuit connection...Newbee, you might have something but since I have a low reading, I think it may be a faulty bias circuit but it is kind of o... 
What is my power conditioner up to?
I use a passive preamp and battery powered Squeezebox, so what I am hearing has to be the Quintets effect on the power amps. I think after further listening that the filterd sound has better definition but lacks a measure of slam and weight in the...

I stream all types of files from my pc wirelessly to my 2 channel setup using a Logitech Squeezebox and they sound fine. Of course if you stream uncompressed files the sound will be better especially with high resolution playback equipment. 
replacement tubes for Cayin A50T
I use to have the Cayin TA 30 and it used the same tube complement your amp. I found that the 12ax7 position had a great effect on the sound. I always liked to replace that tube in other amps with the GE black plate 5751 but found that I lost low ... 
First tube roll: Which to change?
I am guessing you have an Onix sp3. I found also that the 12ax7 position has the most effect on you tonal balance and flavor of the sound. The sp 3 has enough gain to sub a 5751 in this position and some of these really sound nice. I really like t... 
EPOS ELS 3 with SET Amp?
I doubt the music will have any life to it. With the 4 ohm impedence, I would imagine the music will not have much drive. The vocals might sound very good but the frequency extremes would be missing in action. Epos speakers have a rep of needing p... 
Passive pre with class ''D'' power amps, issues ??
I use a Creek passive attenuator between my RWA modded SB2 that has about 1.25 v output at best and my Cayin TA30 with about 26-28 db gain and it works very well. 
Any audiophile who is on blood pressure medication
Hi David12..I am a US pharmacist and I agree with your treatment protocol completely. It is very perplexing to me the pervasive use of ARB's. It seems like we love to make things more complex and expensive than we have to. With the graying populat...
