| How much hum is normal from a new tube amp I run Kt150s in my Vac amps and they are dead quiet. Agree with return | |
| Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁 Like many others, I too can attest to outstanding customer service Mark provides. Best service EVER. During my Puron "shopping" phase he promptly answered all my questions and at times seemed like my personal Puron concierge. The best part thoug... | |
| Looking for high power warming sounding tube amps @fleschler I'm not as fortunate as you in terms of listening time per week, probably on the lines of 6-8 hours weekly, so your tube life is likely to be less than mine in terms of time. Like your system, my room does get a little toasty after a f... | |
| Looking for high power warming sounding tube amps @fleschler I checked with Kevin (owner and president) at VAC before doing even demoing the KT 150's. Kevin, by the way is awesome to deal with -enthusiastic, engaging, and available. No problem at all according to him. No modification necessary.... | |
| Looking for high power warming sounding tube amps I have VAC signature 200 IQ monoblocks with KT150's. It can be run in stereo with 100 wpc. This should be close to your price point. When I purchased these 5-6 years ago, I did a side by side comparison with what I recall was a Pass 350. With ... | |
| Ultrasonic record cleaners @antinn and @whart thanks again for your contributions on getting the best out of our vinyl. I can say unequivocally that adding ultrasonic cleaning to a mechanical regimen such as a vpi has merit. Best is to use both, as they work differently a... | |
| Off axis cloud placement So I struck out on trying to find my disc copy of "Boys". How wide should the table cloth banner be? | |
| Off axis cloud placement @williewonka Have adjusted VTA both up and down from neutral. Lowering VTA didn't fix it and made low end a little boomy. Pretty sure I have it optimized. Tracking force is per manufacturer, and I adjusted it with VTA changes. I do have a digi... | |
| Off axis cloud placement @williewonka What a simply elegant test. I will definitely try that. It may take some time due to work and social commitments-don't usually get home until after 7 p.m. I will let you know. Just curious-ifI don't see an improvement is that a pl... | |
| Off axis cloud placement @williewonka That is a solution I would never have come up with. Do you have contact info for the company? That seems like a real easy fix. Thanks Steve! | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 @steakster , I have found that nano-flo adds both. Huge improvement over TC. It's like a 3-d conditioner. Listening to albums I am quite familiar with shows a greater sound stage, but more impressively, the sound and separation of instruments ... | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 I too can affirm that the new kid is killer. Just applied it to the power cords only. Took the TC off, which I thought was great. Holy Moly!! What a HUGE difference. I really can't wait to treat the rest of the system. By far and away the bes... | |
| I’m in trouble @larryro2 Larry, see Mike at Suncoast Audio in Sarasota. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a nice showroom to audition. I believe he carries some of the brands you are looking at. Good luck. | |
| Aren't you sorry you missed out on this one? It's already sold out! LOL @curiousjimTThe only problem with playing Hendrix on this table is you have to turn it upside down | |
| Record Cleaning Machines @oldaudiophile years ago when I was looking at a 40khz unit (which I bought) I scoured the internet regarding the safety of ultrasonic cleaning. I read a report of an audiophile who took a record he didn't care for and cleaned it ultrasonically o... |
