| High end Audio for ladies? Check this out Interesting marketing. Most women don't want to spend this kind of money on a stereo system - certainly not $70K on speakers alone. A niche market perhaps for successful career women who love home stereo or have husbands/boyfriends who are the one... | |
| Experience bringing older gear up to date ARC, CJ Bill Thalman @ Music Technology did a super job with my ARC D-79 including upgrading the large capacitor bank with new caps from ARC.He's the best. | |
| Simon Yorke new table.... Kurt_tank - Mike Fremer reviewed the S9, not the new S10 in Stereophile. The S9 is a stripped down version of the S7. I have seen no reviews of the S10 yet. | |

| Cary SLP-05 - rectifier tube questions Joey_v - Check out the website I gave you. You can buy online. The WZ68 is basically a double GZ34(5AR4). Works great in my Bob Latino ST-70 and Fi monoblock 300B's. | |

| Graham Phantom B-44 "Custom vs SME mount" Ted - I use a Phantom with SME mount along with an SME V on my 30/2. Each has its own armboard so swapping is quick, easy, and accurate. | |
| 12AX7 vs 12AT7 Bobgates is right. If you want to tailor the sound, get the best NOS 12AT7 you can afford or have a knowledgable technician change the resistors so that the circuit is optimized for a 12AX7 if you really want to go that route. | |

| Question About Biasing KT66 Tubes The KT-66 is rated at 25W, the operating range being from 12-18W. You need to know the plate voltage. A Compu-Bias would greatly help. Mcdonald43 is correct. Check with the amp's manufacturer about the bias setting but also ask him where in the po... | |
| Tube Rolling on BAT Preamplifiers Check out the thread - 'NOS 6H30Tube?' - started 2/07/08. Dgarretson compared some DR tubes with only 2500 hours on them with some new EH 6H30Pi tubes. Given what he found, he does not think the DR tubes are worth the money, whether $300 or even $... |
