An interesting experience with power cable. @boomerbillone Thank you. I'm gonna say something related. I have known the BMC audio brand for less than a month and I have massive respect for the brands and the products they make. I own their amp. Their USB1 (active) cable is also highly prais... | |
An interesting experience with power cable. @jond I agree, that's what I suspected too. @macg19 I bought these. Super affordable. | |
An interesting experience with power cable. @williewonka Thanks for the plate of knowledge and the effort you gave. I've saved Audio Envy into my audio log book. | |
An interesting experience with power cable. @carlsbad Those tube amps can draw a lot of power don't they. I believe mine is 8 gauge, not sure. it says "8AG" idk what that is. @audphile1 I've never heard the difference with cable break-in but I don't refute the idea. Mine is probably ... | |
An interesting experience with power cable. @carlsbad That is possible. I do have a monster of an amp in terms of size. 90 lbs and it has a 2,000 watts toroidal transformer in the supply or something like that. I suppose that’s a lot. One thing I have to note is with the new cable into the... | |
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing Finally I finish reading this thread. Thank you to Ralph and the others that contributed positively. | |
Wiggle kt170 base Long story short. The culprit is actually 1 of the nos preamp 717A tube I bought last month in pair. I've reversed those 2 tubes and the hissing has migrated to the left channel. I've taken those tubes out entirely and replace with something else ... | |
Wiggle kt170 base Hi fellas, That orange/red base at the very bottom is very slightly wiggly from the metal part. I've tried to adjust all the tubes randomly and the hiss/static is still there but very low db now. Like those old tvs when the channel has no sign... | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @elliottbnewcombjr I think you were talking to me about my speaker/amp and location? I live in Boston. It's an unlikely trek from NJ but if opportunity arises, I'd to have you over and talk some audios and listening to whatever songs come to min... | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS Thank you everyone. @mm1tt77 I’ve seriously considered the Coda 8 (whichever the new version is) at used price. One of the well hidden gem, lesser known in America. With the very limited information about the Tyr as of now, The Tyrs are on th... | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @decooney You misunderstand me. I'm very happy with the sound of my system. That comment about the bmr midrange being too neutral is just a concern I have when looking at SS pairing. It's just that reading the reviews of these fantastic SS amps m... | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @lowtubes Ty for the thorough insights. Really. =) | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @headphonedreams Yea the Tyrs are in my top 3. DVA M225 + Tyrs + Gato 150 @lloydc The good ol' plug and unplug. Physically. I'm a big believer of less is more. Regarding Kt170s, I honestly don't know if the transformers are big enough but th... | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @hilde45 Yea, the bmr are excellent values. Low sensitivity (86) but easy to drive, mild impedance curves. @mesch You made a great point and it relates to my question. I love tubes but I don’t require that sound for music. I also love the st... | |
Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @knotscott The 2 owners are friends, Dennis and Jim Salk. Quite a history between the 2 men. Some years ago Dennis made speakers and sold them for so cheap (high quality) but he made no money, actually lost money and overworked eventually he had ... |
