| To Aesthetix users Hello, PatrickYou may be getting close. Definitely swap the front end tubes from channel to channel. Make sure you mark them V1A, V2A, V1B,V2B etc to keep things straight. You may have to work through the whole tube complement to find a culprit.Bo... | |
| To Aesthetix users Hello,A couple of other thoughts:* You obviously do not have a continuous ground through to the receptcle. If you unscrew the receptcle from the box and leave it in free space then your ratshack tester will show a missing ground. I don't know your... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Have not read through every thread here...but... I used to own a unipivot Lurne arm from France that had this arrangement built into a hollow tube that was fitted perpindicular to the arm tube toward the rear. The tube contained two weights that y... | |
| To Aesthetix users Hi, I have the Io Sig w/VC and 2 supplies. I live in a very RF rich environment near a hospital. On one occassion when trying different ICs I did discover some RF bleed through.No hum with the IO or subsequent RF problems. Your IC's must be very w... | |

| Thinking about a tube roll to Brimar or Telefunken Albert,I thought that might be the case as I've tried numerous 6SN7 types in my IO sig w/vc and I agreed with your orginal comments on the RCA red base working well..Alas my IO is down with one bad power supply (should be back this week I hope) an... | |
| Thinking about a tube roll to Brimar or Telefunken Albert,In your post above you comment on the Aesthetix gear ( I presume the IO and Callisto) not responding well to the RCA 5692. Did I miss something? There was a informative thread by you some time ago ... praising the RCA red base 5692. Have yo... | |

| Calling all Aesthetix Callisto / Io Owners JaFox, John,I'm going to clarify in suggesting that the Io supply should not be used with a different pinout...it's an assumption on my part. However, I do know for certain that modifications must be done to the main unit and the power supplies in... | |
| Calling all Aesthetix Callisto / Io Owners Hi,Do not try the Callisto PS on the Io.. if it is pinned diffently. Additionaly, you must make changes to the Io main unit (installation of jumpers) and changes to the 1st power supply internals for the Io to work with two power supplies.I know b... | |
| Berning ZH270 Synergy I've just ordered a new ZH270 with the wire mod...so it will be a while before I can chime in. I'll be using the Berning on Quad ESL 57s and USA monitors. | |
| ? cartridge should match vintage marantz reciever Hello,Your Shure should work just fine with the 2325 (I'm assuming it's in good shape). If you do not get better results by experimenting with the Height of the tone arm (VTA), or set up of the cartridge as your turntable allows...then I would sus... |
