| EL34 vs. KT66 output tubes Trelja,FYI, I should clarify that I'm using only vintage gears because I prefer the sound from vintage gears much more than the modern gear.I do agree that the modern EL34 amps sold a lot more than the modern 6L6 variants because no manufacture ma... | |
| Best phono DIN/RCA cable I really enjoy the XLO signature phono 3.1 and 3.2 cables.They're great!Big smooth transparent open sound without harshness.Much better imaging than the Cardas Golden Reference in my setup. | |
| EL34 vs. KT66 output tubes For Push and Pull application,I got great results replacing KT66s with NOS 7027A for my application.The 6L6GCs lacks control in lower frequency when compared to 7027A. Some might like the rounder and fuzzier sound of the famous black plate 6L6GCs.... | |
| Best 70+ Watt Tube amp 2nd to vintage MC275s.However, there are something more affordable but not as beautiful. | |
| EL34 vs. KT66 output tubes "Most people, me among them, prefer the EL34 over the KT66 (and 6L6/5881)"Trelja, I wouldn't say most.9 out 10 audiophiles I know around NYC prefer the KT66 ( none chinese nor Russian ) over the EL34 ( all types )Amp has a lot more to do with the ... | |
| EL34 vs. KT66 output tubes For Push and Pull tube amps,I always prefer 7027, KT66, 7591 and EL84 over EL34.The vocal always sound richer over all than EL34.The bass on EL34 is not neccessary better. It really depends on which brand/type of the tube and the amp you installed... | |
| WBT vs Eichmann I agree with Tvad. It really depends on how one make the cable and terminate the cable properly. I prefer Eichmann Silver Bullet over the copper version because it sounded more open, smoother overall and less harsh in the high frequency. As far as... | |
| Volume Level Try to swap the L and R channel phono cable and see if the sound is consistantly lower on one side. It can then help you determine of it is from source or your phono section. | |
| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables Wc65mustang, Why do you claim that Stealth Indra is the best while you switched to copper? Isn't that kind of ironic?As far as Bose 901s.. I don't have them.. Used them back in the DJ days in the late 80s. | |
| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables Gold made everything sound golden with glow.Lack of attack and resolution but added mellow made it soothing and sleepy. | |
| High impedance Speakers The older Altec alinco drivers from the 60s were 32 Ohm with over 100db. That's even easier to drive with less than 1 watt of juice. : ) | |
| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables Wc65mustang, what happen ever happened to your Steath "bomber" Indra cables? What's wrong with "the best" cable you ever heard? | |
| Classe Audio DR6 Not too crazy about DR6 preamp. Although it is only 25W/ch class-A operation, the DR3-HV amps is one of the best product made my them.Get Klyne if you are into SS preamp. | |
| New speakers and excessive midrange switch to some US or European 300B amps probably would resolve this issue.Many of the Chinese amps are not very refined and clean.That's why there is no high and lows because it is not capable of reproducing it correctly. | |
| New speakers and excessive midrange "excessive midrange" might came from your Dared VP-300B SET Monoblocks and Dared SL-2000 Preamp combo and not the speakers themselves. |
