Cayin TA-30 thoughts... Glad to hear you are enjoying the ta-30.Having had mine for several months now, all I can say is it keeps getting better.I have only one real problem with the amp. After a late night of listening and having been completely melted into the sofa- it... | |
Regarding people selling equipment to U.S.A. only You would think so.I just sold an amp on e-bay to an overseas buyer. When he found it would cost 250 US to ship he backed out and left me stuck. | |
Best Bike to ride before a good listening session I live in Reno. The DS is blue. Your team SC must be a nice ride. The Rex is gorgeous- I should ride it more often. | |
Best Bike to ride before a good listening session I really like my Della Santa road bike. Then again the Steve Rex is pretty nice too. On the other hand I love how the ol' Schwinn Paramount handles. Wait, the fixed gear is great fun... oh, and the recumbent is like riding a low rider. I need to g... | |
Cayin T30 Degabe,I think it will depend on the speaker you are using, the music you listen to and the spl you require. With the right setup I would be certain of it's ability. I wish my room were larger...at least a higher ceiling.I find the Cayin to have a... | |
jolida 302a + totem arro / pre-out for sub? Ditch the Y connector pronto. It seems to destroy the stereo image from the amp. If your sub has any other inputs besides rca check your manual or call Dr. Hsu. | |
Cayin T30 Velo-I have only used the stock tubes to this point, so I can't comment on your kt-88's. Did you try the el-34? I am unsure how the kt-88 would effect the character.I am using an unported sub to uphold the bass foundation of some small Dynaudio sp... | |
Cayin T30 Mine did too at first. The odor was a sweet moth ball sort of smell. It has been a month and almost completely gone away. The sound just gets better-enjoy! | |
jolida 302a + totem arro / pre-out for sub? My sub has two inputs. Low level rca type and high level spkr terminal type with a special connector. The sub has a BK electronics amplifier. I guess not all subs have that capacity, but I should think that most do. I just wire it up and go. Sound... | |
jolida 302a + totem arro / pre-out for sub? I also have the Cayin ta-30. My advice on the sub preouts- it robs from the volume pot and reduces gain to the main spkrs. I ended up wiring direct to the spkr outs and that solved the problem. | |
Image and Power Thanks Sean for your enlightening response.I had removed the cover of the SS to see if there were any adjustments that I might give a whack at. I saw nothing that would tempt me, and let it be. I like your example by Atkinson. The more I dig at Go... | |
My, My...what a nice sound this amp has ... Hey thanks Tubegroover.Wanna hear something funny? I must have been having a senior moment or some kind of brain fart. Ella and Basie has no strings to speak of. Dream a little Dream of Me has a pretty cool Hammond organ tho. I was listening to a ... | |
My, My...what a nice sound this amp has ... Thanks, Marilee sure could sing. Her husband Neil played sax on that song. Do you remember the one huge flat note he made on it? Oddly, I always found that attractive ;-)and wondered if he intended it. | |
For Cayin TA-30:"The Horn" or Fostex/Voight Pipe? Shirasagi,What difference did you notice with the Mullard over the stock tubes?RW | |
I'm going back to tubes... a question for y'all Thanks, I appreciate your input. |
