| Tube rolling newbie- how to choose NOS tubes @kennyc Read the descriptions at the top of Brent Jessee's page. | |
| Need advice with clicking noise from my tube amp Any wireless devices in the home such as alarm system, Alexa, etc? | |
| Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2 He had a niche market, the wealthy audiophiles. Covid shut him down and then he had to close due to supply chain shortages. He needed rare earth metals and fabricating equipment. | |
| Tube rolling newbie- how to choose NOS tubes Be warned...new production Mullards are not the real Mullards. A major manufacturer of tubes in Russia bought the name. They have no semblance to the sonics of NOS Mullards which were manufactured in UK or by their parent company Philips, Holland.... | |
| More Cowbell It never gets old. I saw BOC 5 or 6 times in the 70's, they needed more cowbell. | |
| Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2 @knownothing HF Cables is out of business. The owner and designer was Rick Schultz who was a high-end cable maker for various companies. He offered cables and power conditioning, I own 5 of his plug-in conditioning modules. His concept of using ... | |
| Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2 That's a great way to get better power. I'm using a C7 PC from Cullen Cables which is dramatically better SQ than stock. I also have Cat8 wired from my router which is plugged into a Brick Wall power conditioner with RFI/EMI filtering. | |
| Audiogon site acting weird. The forum has been crashing the past few days on my Android. It seems to happen when viewing a posted image or video. After the crash it says Reload Tab. | |
| Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2 @knownothing Great to hear you're pleased with Swagman, I'm also using an SE. Cables really matter, I've read good user reviews about the DH Labs digital cable. I'm using a High Fidelity Cables SPDIF coax. I must say that the Node2i is a good e... | |
| Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2 I concur regarding the use of an aftermarket power supply. I'm using a Swagman Labs LPS connected to my iFi iPurifier2. Results are opening up the soundstage, better quality bass, and an overall smoothness to the music. IMO, the Node2i doesn't h... | |

| Dedicated power circuits @ditusa Thanks for the detailed explanation. I'm using two identical runs from 20A breakers, one for analogue and one digital. Tube amp plugged into wall. Audio system is only 20' from panel so I used 12/2 Romex. No ground loop, no RFI (tested w... | |
| I was almost 14 yrs old when Burn was released, thankfully I think I have aged well. Loved Mk 1 DP with Rod Evans, and of course Mk II with Ian Gillan, but I lost interest when Hughes and Coverdale came in. But I know a lot of people loved that lineup, too.... But Mk II came back. It was the 80s and they had a more accessible ... | |
| Dedicated power circuits @ditusa Please explain why MC Galvanized Steel Metal Clad Cable. A metal conduit is not required to meet code in this situation. And cost will be higher than Romex 10/2. | |
| I was almost 14 yrs old when Burn was released, thankfully I think I have aged well. I'm sure most fans consider Ian Gillan as the "voice" of Deep Purple. But, IMHO, Burn was a fantastic album and the addition of Coverdale and Hughes was a seamless transition. But these two artists were only band members for three years (3 albums)... |
