Rays Tubes @milpai I have the Mazda's too, but haven't tried them in the Backert. Thanks for the info. | |
Rays Tubes I don’t have a lot of experience rolling tubes, but I recently replaced a pair of NOS 12au7’s (BugleBoys) with PSVane Horizon’s in my Backert Labs preamp. I am very pleased with the results. | |
Small speaker advice Plenty of good suggestions so far. These might be a bit of a squeeze in a small room due to the necessary offset from the front wall, but the LRS+ are incredible speakers when paired with great electronics like you have. They are not as imposing ... | |
Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC @drvinyl01 Ha ha! +1 | |
Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC @teajay Thanks! | |
Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC @teajay I haven’t seen any mention of the Rockna Wavelight in this thread. Are you familiar enough with it to make a comparison with the Aero? It is another I am considering to replace my DSD Mk2. | |
Borresen X3 vs Harbeth 40.2 -- my impressions Years ago, like 40 of them, a friend referred to a pair of standpoint speakers that I had at the time as "screaming bricks". Eli (bless his ears) is gone now, as are those speakers. But that was exactly what came to mind when I heard the X3's at C... | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread @ampus What is your preamp? Mine is a Backert Labs Rhythm 1.3+ (has the brass plate). I will add that this is with only a few hours on them so far, but hope it doesn't change. @alightronics Thanks! | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread I have to say these Horizon 12au7’s are really nice! More full bodied than the Amperex BB’s I had in there. Given the rest of my system (now using LRS+) the increase in warmth and pace is welcome. Really nice. The previous tubes were kinda thread ... | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread Do tubes ‘burn in’? Can’t say I’ve noticed a change in any tube over time, but what do I know. | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread Got my 12au7’s today. Same bubble bag as above. But they were undamaged. Listening now. They sound great! | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread @alightronics Thanks for the reply. I ordered a pair of 12au7's instead. Looking forward to hear how they compare to the bugle boys I am listening to now. | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread @alightronics Any plans for producing 12sn7 GTA? | |
The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Well mine is for sale. It is a good amp, but for my ears the AGD Tempo and AtmaSphere D mono amps have a more transparent, dimensional, and liquid midrange with better control over the low frequencies and better rendering of textures. The S5.5 get... | |
Magnepan LRS plus & Atma-Sphere digital amps I recently received my LRS + and I am completely blown away. Driving them with my little AGD Tempo Mk3 (200w > 4ohm). An amazing combination. I'm selling my Coda, KEF Reference, and Fynes. Also using a KEF KC92 subwoofer and it integrated seam... |
