McCormack DNA-1 runs hot I have a DNA-1 Deluxe with Silver plus upgrades. The amp is running Magnestand MG-12s. I just checked the temp while idle and got 100 degrees. The amp is on 24/7.What is the temp of your amp at idle? Why do you think your amp runs hot?Mike | |

ShengYa CD-10 I had that same player. The best tubes I found were 70s era Amperex 6DJ8s with the dimple getter. They gave me exactly what you describe you're looking for. | |

Tube rolling in TAD 150 and Jolida 100cd Sorry that should read JHS-12AT7WA | |
Tube rolling in TAD 150 and Jolida 100cd I got great sound using 1957 Sylvania JHS-12TX7WA tubes.They were recommended to me as the "Bing Crosby" of the 12AT7 family. If you're interested in trying them I have many leftover from my TAD-150. | |
So, what DON'T you spend money on? I spent my money on booze,drugs and hookers. The rest I wasted!! | |
Mapletree 4SE vs. TAD 150 signature best sound??? The Mapletree wins by more than a little. The TAD is a very nice sounding pre,and the remote is handy. The Mapletree is a fantastic sounding pre,but you get no remote. I believe the difference is the use of octal tubes in the 4A SE,point to point ... | |

I added some brass 10g scale weights on Herbies dots.I'm extremely happy with the pre and have no trouble recommend... | |
Good tube preamp for McCormack DNA 500??? I have a DNA-1 coupled with a custom Line 2A SE pre from Mapletree Audio Designs(uses a pair of 6SN7s and a 6X5 rectifier). Sounds fantastic and was only $1200.00 See it here http://hollowstate.netfirms.com/ |
