| Cooling fans for tube amp I'm far from an expert, but I experienced your same frustration a while back when trying to put a fan on my rack. After doing what you did, I found a very quiet 12v fan here. This is a 12v DC fan meaning it needs a 12v DC power converter like the ... | |
| ventilation fan vibration isolation help needed My suggestion is to start with the quietest fan you can get and I don't think Radio Shack fans are the best in that area. The quietest fan I have found is a fan by the name of Vantec Stealth available from nexfan.com. It comes in several sizes and... | |
| Subwoofer in my systemÂ… I'd give Roy a call at GMA. He was very helpful with my integration of a sub with my Callistos. I'm in no way an audio designer, but I don't believe frequencies below ~45Hz will mess with any of the Callisto's crossover sound. My sub begins at 45H... | |
| Best Acoustic Guitar Players Of All Time? I didn't see Kelly Joe Phelps on your list. Perhaps not the best, but one of the most enjoyable to. | |
| adding a fan to an enclosed cabinet I just added a fan to my rack to keep the shelf above my amps cooler. I researched computer case fans pretty heavily and found this fan . It is so quiet I can't hear it running from one foot away. It runs off of a 12 volt DC power supply which I h... | |

| Massive entertainment center replacement ideas? Here's a thought Bill... remove Gladys and see what happens to your sound. If you like the change, then pursue a new less obtrusive rack, if no change keep her. No guess work. Make sense? | |
| Built a Flexi-type rack? Leveling a rack of this type can only be done by varying the depth the threaded rods are threaded into the cones at the bottom. Example: all rods should be the same length, so, on a level floor, the last nuts on top would all be threaded evenly on... | |
| Speakers cables that are warm yet detailed........ My experience with cables, or equipment cahnges for that matter, is that my conscience must be clear with my choice. I have made changes in the past because of rave reviews or posts on this site regarding the certain component's "terrific-ness". I... | |
| Jolida JD 100 Display Dim? Owner's please reply Hmmm, I've owned this player twice and mine have not demonstrated that effect. Not normal if you ask me. | |
| A good 50-70 watts tube amplifier for $ 2000? In addition to what has already been discussed, take a look at the pair of AES (Cary) Sixpac mono amps listed here. Sweet EL34 tubes that have served me well for several years now. Point to point wiring with zero feedback and 50 watts of triode po... | |
| Anyone using Nuforce Ref 9 Mono Blocks? While I have never heard either of the amps you are considering, I highly recommend doing something similar to what Tvad is advising. Speaking from my experience, the only way to have peace of mind in my audio equipment decisions is to do A/B comp... | |
| Feedback wanted from Jolida JD100A owners I've owned this player twice now. As I see it (close to Pdreher)...Pro's: It makes me want to listen, smooth, great soundstage, nice build qualityCon's: Perhaps not the last word in dynamicsYou also have to be aware of what tubes people are using ... | |
| She's on to me Ecruz, my wife and I met in kindergarten and we've been married 20 years with three great kids. I loved your post! Have fun. | |
| Modwright SWL 9.0SE Preamplifier I'd hate for people to believe that the MW preamp is like a SS preamp. It absolutely is not. Sure, I agree it does not impart a large tube "bloom" like some, and, it is closer to a SS preamp than some, but make no mistake, you are getting accuracy... |
