| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Almarg,Hi. PM'ed you with a couple of questions. Thanks! | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Mikorob,For interconnects, kind of a sad mishmash of budget Audioquest and Kimber. :-/For speaker cable, I use Supra Classic 6.0 I discovered it when I was looking for cabling for my Merlin TSM-mmi's. I was looking for something that conformed to ... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Almarg,Wow, those Signal Cable cords are very well priced. Thanks for the tip and I will see which one the proprietor recommends for my amp. | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... I emailed Pete at TWL to see if he has any used or demo cables to sell. And Silnote seems a good, relatively low cost option. If you guys are of the consensus that the the Pangea cords aren't worth the trouble, I'll suppose I'll save up for someth... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Charles,I know that speaker cables can make a difference because I have heard the differences myself. I will admit to having been a little skeptical about the whole power cord thing but I will certainly give it a try.By the way, do any of you guys... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Mikirob:Happy to share the info. It's this fellow. He just happens to be local to me.I think I'll stay put with the RCA tube I have now. My next upgrade will probably be one of the Pangea power cords from Audio Advisor. I'm still using a cord cann... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Joe,I'm so glad you posted.There's a local fellow who's selling off his tube collection, which must've been huge. I asked him about 6sn7's and he replied saying that he has the following to sell. I'm curious if any of these are worth picking up:RC... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... New post on the RCA 6SN7 tube is up on the blog! | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Charles,I feel the same way as John. I am SO happy with my Kit 1! It has taken me beyond fiddling with gear to enjoying musical performances. And I am shocked by how just replacing that one 6SN7 tube kicked the amp up to a higher level of musicali... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Sure, Dan:Steve's Audio Blog.Enjoy! | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Roxy,Warmed up the Kit 1 and played Buena Vista Social Club. Shut off the amp, removed the stock, Electro Harmonix (Russian) 6SN7 (wearing an oven mitt!!) and installed the RCA vintage (1940's!) tube. Played the same tracks.HOLY COW, JOHN!!!!!!! :... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Hey, Roxy,Just received it today in fact. Unboxing pics will be on the blog shortly! Musical impressions to follow next week, probably.:-DAlready gave you a shout out on the blog for making the suggestion to contact Andy... have a look. | |
| High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps JWM,Not so much hot as "steamy." Been getting a lot of rain here and it's been really humid. Good for us because we've been in a drought, but the mosquito situation this summer is going to be intense, I think. :-/ | |
| What's the greatest bargain in SET these days? Roxy,I'll let everyone know how it sounds. What Andy emphasized the most was the RCA invented this tube and that these tubes from the 40's are much more robust and durable than the newer stuff being manufactured today. I think he said you could ge... |
