| tube recommendations for audio research LS-16? I believe ls16 has Infinity caps I had an amp long ago with those caps. They can sometimes be a little on the cool side in certain systems. You could add a bypass cap if you can solder. Remove it when you sell it and add it to next amp or your spe... | |
| Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today Boxer what is the weight of your preamp and which pucks did you purchase. My Preamp only weighs 15 pounds and I found it sounds better with 3 mini pucks which is rated at 6 pounds each. Seem like I'm pushing it to the limits. Maybe I'll try 4 puck... | |
| Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today I'm going to put pucks back in and see if they settle in and leave them in for a week or so. I don't want to give up on them yet, I have 30 days. I'm putting them under a Bruce Moore Preamp with Jupiter copper foil signal caps and Duelund bypass ... | |
| Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today I placed the puck minis under tube Preamp it does sound like noise floor goes down maybe images a little better. I also feel like it loses a little air an slows things down a little too much. Loses a little jump factor. I haven't had time to let ... | |
| tube recommendations for audio research LS-16? Give your tubes 200 hours just to be safe. Did the person you bought tubes have a return policy. Brent will answer phone and will let you return tubes with a small restocking fee after so many days. He will guide you to the right tube not the high... | |
| Isoacoustic puck mini's or orea bronze for 12 pound tube preamp I had chance to put isoacoustic puck minis in and spend a small amount of time with them. I left DH Cones under CD player and placed pucks under Preamp, then later tried other set of pucks under phono pre. 3 pucks sound different than 4. I'm goin... | |
| tube recommendations for audio research LS-16? I think you may like a Valvo, can be a goldylocks tube with right amp, it's a little on warm side but not as much as a mullard. My Preamp is tubey and warm it likes the bugle boys best,more than other expensive 6922 type. I have the amprex gold pi... | |
| Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today I have Baltic birch layer sitting on old audioquest sorbathane Q's which sits on top of 3 inch maple. Next layer of Baltic birch sits on spikes with CD player on top with jumbo DH cones. Can I just buy springs at an industrial supply just curious ... | |
| Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today I find that interesting, that is why I left cones under CD player it is very clear and lively with out being bright in the slightest since I adjusted cone placement. Very enjoyable to listen to and don't want to remove them. Pucks will be in Frida... | |

| Isoacoustic puck mini's or orea bronze for 12 pound tube preamp Thank you that helps knowing they do work on components and are close to Orea. I think I'll try the mini's first, there cheap and get 8 feet. I wonder if they will beat out DH Cones I really like them. I'll give them a shot see what happens. | |
| Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today So I should remove the paper off base of cone. Why were they put there and what is sonic improvement? Can they be put back on if I prefer paper on. Cones are on maple platforms. | |
| TRL WON'T GIVE ME MY AMP Tonykay it's a little hard to buy the gear you want used locally. I'm vey trusting and before PayPal was popular I was sending large sums of money with USPS money orders buying off Audiogon. Luckily I never got burned, there are good people out th... | |
