| Shotgun speaker cables I tried various combos over the many years at this tweakery and settled on single (very pure copper) solid core as my preferred cable. I have my amps close to the speakers as short runs are preferable. Stranded or paralleled cables seem to introdu... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Ry Cooder sounded better on the Raven. The music was more coherent. The Victor was brighter but it was a mess.Dire Straits however was the opposite. Dull and plodding on the Raven, lively and musical on the Victor. | |

One pair is a full rebuild with fixed bias and 3 chokes, PIO caps, Mullard GZ34, Psvane Globe 6SN7 ($375 a pair but amazingly detailed), TS 7581A and it sounds better than many amps costing a LOT more. | |
| Denon Turntable DP 15F runs backwards ! Lift off the platter and clean the head and inner platter magnetic stripe with alcohol. | |
| Newb..pls help. What Millercarbon said. Also when reviewers say things like a little warm, they mean rolled off and dull. When they say a little bright, they mean searing highs.You are not old, dude. Treat yourself to a tube integrated and have some fun. Then a b... | |
| Really...My favorite power tube is reissue that's not widely popular I'd love to hear the GE and TS side by side. I run the TS in EICO HF35. | |

| Marantz 6300 horrible buzzing noise + no audio! Nah, how do you get a capacitor switch-out wrong? My guess is open circuit ground somewhere in the rewired signal path. Overheated solder joints?You should have held on to the Technics! |
