Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR I have a pair of these http://app.audiogon.com/listings/456096It's really pity that the seller didn't follow the advice of Jac from jacmusic, who clearly describes about AVVT tubes. They need to be treated with kind of wake up procedure, before yo... | |
Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR I wrote Jeff, who is a very nice gentleman by the way, my thoughts, after I read his. His response was more than enough for me to get extra prove that tubes perform not equally in differ amps. His system is out of my range and simply great, but I ... | |
Almarro A318B/Cary 300 SE Signature Amps I own Cary CAD300 sei and replaced Sophia's 6SN7 right away for many NOS, which are, imo, way better in many ways.On the other hand, lots of folks swear by them, but to me, Chinese made tubes aren't even close to an good NOS, especially at the pri... | |
Any Caviar Fans Here? There are several types I tried:- Sturgeon Asetra Russia- Beluga Russia - Iranian AsetraAll of them are excellent ( I believe Iranian were the best quality ) with their own flavor and if you want to try, just do it, cos soon it will be over and th... | |

Tannoy Kensington Se vs. Sonus Faber Cremona M Man, at that price range the dealers must come over and install either of them for couple of days in your home, why dont you call?SF and Tannoy's arent the same, but both are worth to try out, before you make your mind, cos, you never know what yo... | |

Upgrading Fuses As far as I know, not every equipment benefits highly from high quality fuses and that's what happened in my system to, however partially. I bought one Furutech for my Cary 300B and it changed things in the good way. The sound become bit warmer/sm... | |
Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor "Minimum" Power? Sonus Faber have warmish signature, at least the one I tried, which are Auditor M and Electa Amators. Try them with your own system and in your room, before buying, cos they will be very differ sounding with differ amps and sources, well, which sp... |
