| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Charles,A simple note on the Coincident Dynamo 34SE: as I suspected from the start that this little amp would respond well to upgrades, I must say it has exceeded my expectations. The Dynamo has responded to every tube or wire change in a signific... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Hello Charles,I feel extremely fortunate to have scored the older NOS Mullard High Wycombe CV378 "Fat Bottle". I spoke with Israel about this tube as well as "skinny bottle"; he was very enthusiastic about this tube plus liked the slow start. I re... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Hi Brownsfan,Here is the link to Belden 8402 interconnect: http://btpa.com/IC8402-XX.htmlRemember, you must order a minimum of ten (10) feet of cable, for example, one six foot pair terminated; have them terminated with Switchcraft 3502AAU RCA. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Charles/Jetrexpro,I have a pair of High Wycomb Fat Bottle CV378 that I am saving for the big Franks...but In the meantime my Coincident Dynamo is really sounding superb, especially with the WE16ga and Belden 8402, RCA Red Base 5691, Shuguang Black... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Brownsfan,Glad that you purchased some WE16ga. I believe you will like it. Buy a couple meters of the Belden 8402as well. Very simpatico with the WE. I'm also very happy to see you pop up here and I truly hope your move, selling your house is goin... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Justubes2,Most of the WE16ga has been bought off eBay from seller tajacobs. No, it is not the solid core, but WE16ga stranded tinned copper, about 25 strands. Unfortunately for now, the legitimate best seller of the WE is almost out of it, apparen... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Grannyring,Yes, it is almost gone, looks like only end of rolls. I've personally been scouting the world for spools of the WE16ga with no luck although I know smaller amounts exist in Japan and Taiwan. I agree with you, this is the best wire I hav... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Agree on Dudley musical tastes and choices. I've always enjoyed his writing since subscribing to Listener over twenty years ago. If I wasn't moving in the direction I am I might go Shindo like Dudley. I likely agree with you on the political stuff... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Hello Charles,I thought it useful to reprint Jeff Day's "Listening Bias" since he articulates it so succinctly, matches exactly how I listen, plus, if you read Yazaki-san's own words about how he came to find his own sound, the pursuit of "Real So... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Hi Charles,No, not really, I'd prefer to purchase one of Yazaki-San Western Electric DA30 SET amps. Now, I have't heard either of these amps yet. But let's say they sound nearly identical, I'd still go for the tube unit. Why? Complex answer that I... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Volleyguy1,Jeff did have his Mac's Capacitor and resistor brand changed to Arizona green and blue capacitors, resistors to Ohmite Brown Devils. You should read his latest blogs on all that change. A wonderful Japanese designer, Shirokazu Yazaki-sa... | |

| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Jeff Day wired his Dueland Cast with the WE16ga with great success. You can read about his use of the WE here: jeffplace@me.com. | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price Thanks Grannyring!!!I'll likely go with the Jupiter Flat stacked aluminum. I have every expectation this will make a good speaker much, much better. I like the idea that these caps are organic sounding with a touch of warmth; full of body and weig... | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price Jetrexpro,Yeah, my father-in-law is a do everything DIY kind of guy; only problem is is he is a huge procrastinator with everything always half done. Leeds helped my wife though, she has fond memories, remembers the odor well, gave her a big chuck... |
