| dc10audio use Duelund CAST capacitor ? The Clarity MR is a fantastic capacitor and in my opinion represents a tremendous value. In my experience it was bested only by the Duelund VSF-Cu and CAST-Cu capacitors. | |
| MY REVIEW: Merlin TSM MMM BME I don't care for the sound of Merlin speakers but think BP's efforts to help his customers when he can is good. However, his entering into opinion driven discussions regarding his product, such as this thread, has always seemed unnecessary and lik... | |
| MY REVIEW: Merlin TSM MMM BME I think it was the several insults more than the gushing review that prompted the tone of several of the replies. | |
| MY REVIEW: Merlin TSM MMM BME Chayro and Tubegroover: I was going to add another entry to this thread but you both expressed very eloquently what I had wanted to say. | |
| MY REVIEW: Merlin TSM MMM BME I briefly owned Merlin speakers and didn't like them so I punted them from my system. I've heard newer models in audio shops that I liked even less than the ones I owned. I can only conclude that the other speakers you owned in your five years in ... | |
| question about jolida amps The Jolida JD 707A was a nice amp. It was offered only briefly but was a very nice, musical amp. If you find one on the used market you might consider it if it's 40wpc suits your needs. | |

| Octave vs Ayon integrateds I don't have any experience with the Octave but own an Ayon Triton 1 and am very happy with it. It's a very musical beast. I also have a friend that owns a Spirit 1 and he loves it.I went to the Octave website and poked around only briefly, but ca... | |
| Replace 12AU7 with 6SN7 ? Amiglick,I'm just curious, but since you said that you are using the Triton as an amp only, already driving it with a 6SN7 based pre-amp, is your motivation to reduce your system's footprint by eliminating the separate pre-amp?You are fortunate to... | |
| Primaluna-TungSol KT120s in triode mode My very brief experience with the KT120s in my Rogue M180s in triode mode found them to be the antithesis of tubes that could be described as possessing "open, airy, natural detail." I went back to the Gold Lion KT88s quickly. | |
| Replace 12AU7 with 6SN7 ? Amiglick,I own a Triton 1 and if you don't mind me asking, I'm curious about what is your goal for considering this change?Also, what 12AU7s are you presently running in the amp? | |
