Zu speaker owners - do you have any gain issues? Hi Downunder,What Cary preamp do you have? If you have SLP-98 then that is the issue. I had one before and it made a lot of noise when I turned the volume past 10. I suggest you may try a preamp with an excellent attenuator either mono or duo. Tha... | |
Sun Audio SV-2A3:: Direct or not? Average price of a pair WE 417A right now on ebay is USD$60-80. Whereas top line of 6SN7s are sold with untoucheable price USD$150-200 like Mullard ECC33 or rare TungSol VT231 round plated. To me WE417A is best choice of input tubes for 2A3 and/or... | |
Sun Audio SV-2A3:: Direct or not? I use a custom built tube preamp with the Sun SV 2A3, which I also mod to replace 6SN7s with WE 417A tubes. They sound perfectly awesome with spatial, detailed and sweet. | |
What is the best DAC ever made? Siver Eagle Audio Signature DAC. The DAC is built with Black Gate Non-polar capacitors and two 6X5 rectifier tubes, 4x6J5 output tubes with special C-core output transformers and a new model DAC chip. The sound is unbelievable musical and detailed. | |
Getting SET I have the Sun Audio SV-2A3 and now I do have the modded Midwest Audio 2A3 since I love the sound of 2A3 tubes. Even though your SET amps are fully modded you should look for an excellent high efficient speakers to match with them. I have had a ch... | |
Sun Audio SV 2A3 stepped attenuators Thanks Billy for your information. | |
I need a quiet tube amp Hi Tomryan,I suggest you should listen to either Silver Eagle Audio 211 Signature or 211 parallel Reference monoblocks. They are well built with all top components. | |
Rectifier tubes? You should try out the U52 (same version as 5U4) Osram or BVA as I used two pairs for my Silver Eagle Audio Signature monoblocks. | |
SETs vs. Push/Pull You got to listen to Silver Eagle Audio 211 parallel monoblocks since they can beat easily a pair of ARC 300 or 600 mkII. | |

Review: Argent Audio Pursang Interconnect Anyone has any experience about the Pursang Digital? I am still looking for a detail, sweet, warm and oontrolled bass sound for my Acustic Art Driver 1 transport and Metronome DAC C20 Signature. Thanks. | |
Cary SLP-98 vs. other high end preamps--C-J, etc. I luckily got the Cary SLP98 with internal phono stage and oiled capacitors upgraded. I just bought the deHavilland Ultraverve preamp (also has one 6SN7 input but has a rectifier tube not diodes rectifiers) and would compare with Cary SLP98P. In m... | |
Best Power Conditioner For under $1000.00 I suggest you to get a bybee technologie signature model which I had before. I had used a lot of power conditioners but Bybee is a good one for the price (less than $500.00 used). Good luck. | |
Cary SLP-98 vs. other high end preamps--C-J, etc. I own Cary SLP-98P and CJ-16LS MKII. They have diffrent tastes of music. SLP-98 has more bottom end but less lush midrange whereas CJ-16LS MKII has an awesome sweet midrange when listening to vocals but lack of bottom end. I had CJ-17LS before but... | |
300B Tubes - Which is Best? I am using WE 300B in my 805 AEs amps(using 211 Amperex output) which make the sound way better than Sophia Mesh plate or Valve Art 300B. |
