| CLAYTON SHAW - CALADAN - JULY SHIPMENT LIST ....unless yours is a name on that list. Then those people have an idea that theirs is getting built and possibly shipped this month. | |
| Changing a speaker color I'm no painter so I would find a local auto body guy to do it for me. I'd just remove the drivers, speaker terminals, etc. and drop them off. | |
| Starting Over and I need your help I'd try some tube rolling first. That can change the sound of a tube amp enough to make you happy. I have a similar power-level tube amp for my home office and with my 90dB speakers, it sounds great and I have enough power for the room, IMO. ... | |
| Tube Amp recommendation for Thiel CS1.6 under $2k Are you open to new and used? | |
| Need some treble Depending on your speakers and placement, you might be able to get a bit more perceived treble from just toeing them in more towards your listening position. It's an easy and free adjustment. | |
| subwoofers What is the model of subwoofer? | |
| Best Subwoofer Connection for Music It sounds like you could connect both subwoofers using the speaker-level inputs. I prefer to not use the speaker-level outputs on the subs to feed the mains running through the subwoofer amp, relying on the subs internal crossover. I prefer to j... | |
| Electric bill any high A streamer and a DAC shouldn't double an electric bill, unless your bill was $1/ month to begin with. My 80wpc tube amp only costs about $3/month to run daily. There's probably something else drawing power such as your A/C, faulty refrigerator(s... | |

| Decware Sarah 300B Amp? I don't think anyone looking at or owning 300B SET amps are looking for huge power. | |
| Decware Sarah 300B Amp? As a Decware owner, not the Sarah, they do make some fantastic sounding amplifiers. Their waitlist is crazy-long now, but occasionally used pieces come up for sale. Due to that, the secondary market prices are basically the same as new prices. Th... | |
| Cary SLI-80 tweaks and improvements? I found the plate voltage for mine. Measured it at 588v. So for future reference, there it is. | |
| Cary SLI-80 tweaks and improvements? Cary informed me that the hexfreds just replace the existing diodes and the tube rectifiers stay. Also, does anybody know the plate voltage in these? I can't find a stated value any where. It would be helpful for trying different tubes. |
