| Yamaha AS2000 - balanced input Not sure about the Modwright version, but the stock Transporter's balanced output is just slightly too hot... | |
| Yamaha AS2000 - balanced input Has anyone using this amp found a good balanced dac that has an output of 2.8v or less? I'd like to buy a nice dac and use the balanced outs on my unit, so I was wondering what people here were using. Any recommendations? Benchmark looks like it h... | |
| Review: Yamaha A S-2000 Amplifier I just received an A-S2000 yesterday and so far I'm impressed with the build and sound quality of the unit. One thing concerns me though, the included cord does not have a ground on it, it's just a plain old 2 prong plug. I know I'm showing major ... | |
| Almarro has poping sound, please help I've had an Almarro 318B for a few years now, and I've experienced popping on a number of occasions. Each time it ended up being a dying 6c33c tube...Ebay has decent prices, particularly when you buy a few at a time, but shipping to the US is pric... | |
| Speaker Choice for Almarro 318B OP here...I still have the Almarro 318B and I still love it! I've used three pairs of speakers with the amp, my original B&W speakers (which sounded very good btw), a pair of Almarro M33A (very nice, but didn't suit my listening tastes as well... | |
| zu essence? They look really nice and the reviews on both 6moons and ToneAudio sound good, but they are considerably more expensive than the Druids...definitely puts them out of my league, unfortunately. In this economy I wonder how they are selling compared ... | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me Well, I finally tracked down the culprit responsible for the random popping in my speakers...a bad 6C33C power tube. Thanks for all the assistance and suggestions, I should have just checked these first by swapping them to see if the popping sound... | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me The amp is an Almarro 318B, about 4 months old. I will try the tube swap, but I'm pretty sure its coming from both speakers. I could be wrong though as its tough to tell as I'm never ready for it when it happens!Thanks | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me I think it's both channels, but I'm not 100% sure yet, as the last two times I've heard it I've been next to the left speaker. I haven't tried to swap tubes as money is a little tight at the moment...I'll definitely have to bite the bullet soon th... | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me No, no, I'm not unplugging the ICs, just the power unit to my phono stage and I haven't done the plug/unplug thing with a source selected...the times I've heard the sound, the amp's source select switch has been in mute! I've tried tapping the tub... | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me First, thanks to everyone who has offered their help and expertise on this, I'm new to tubes and need all the help I can get. I played around a little bit last night and I could reproduce the pop when I plugged and unplugged my phono stage. The we... | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me Yes, the unit is definitely still under warranty, but I'd need to ship it back to Japan! I'd like to avoid that if at all possible for cost reasons, as well as wear and tear from shipping. Thanks, for the suggestion, I'll give it a shot. | |
| Random pop sounds in my system are scaring me If it is indeed a capacitor breaking down, is this something that has the risk of destroying the whole system if I keep listening?thanks! | |
| Speaker Choice for Almarro 318B After about five long months, I finally took delivery of my Almarro 318B last Saturday. Needless to say, I'm loving it, a great upgrade from my old Arcam amp. I'm still undecided on speakers, but it does sound good (to my ears anyway) with my B&am... |
