| Mullard Reissue KT88 Some people may prefer the 88 sound and it's affordability over the higher priced tubes as they can get rather pricey but I see your point. | |
| 50 hours of research = 1 amp for Totem Sttaf The PL will have no problem driving the Totum and other speakers with less efficiency unless it's very inefficient. The power supply is huge for a 35w tube amp. It's all in what you want when it comes to tubes or solid state. Some nice SS recom... | |
| 50 hours of research = 1 amp for Totem Sttaf I haven't heard them but do a Google search. I'm sure you'll find plenty of material on each. But I would be willing to bet the PL would sound better than the Cary. | |
| 50 hours of research = 1 amp for Totem Sttaf The Premium version is just that. Premium parts are used throughout the unit which results in better sound and reliability. Have you researched the PrimaLuna and Rogue extensively or read reviews? I own a Dialogue Premium and looked at the upgrad... | |
| 50 hours of research = 1 amp for Totem Sttaf Rogue is very nice however,, I would choose Primaluna over the Rogue. Check the build quality of the PL and read reviews. Also call Kevin Deal and chat with him or one of his staff and Upscale will explain the advantages of the PL line. | |
| For the Primaluna amp owners .... I really like mine a lot. Now I just want to find the right tube combo. I inserted some EH KT90 in tonight and while they are decent tubes they are not cutting it overall. Nice sounding and very smooth but overall not dynamic enough. They do soun... | |
| For the Primaluna amp owners .... Ditto learsfool but I've only tried triode once and I liked what I heard. However it's been my experience that in triode the bass impact isn't as great but the midrange is so very sweet :) | |
| Questions on KT150 tubes If anyone is interested I may sell my matched quad of 120's from Kevin Deal. At the most they probably have no more than 40-50 hrs. | |
| Questions on KT150 tubes Excellent post and very informative. I totally agree with your assessment on the KT 120. I find them too digital sounding also. | |
| Questions on KT150 tubes Wolf me too lol. :) Happy Holidays. | |
| Marantz 1060 vs. Mac 1700/1900 Might want to also consider the single digit models like Model 8. The build quality is second to none. | |
| Questions on KT150 tubes I assume you are answering my post Wolf? If so, all I'm saying and another poster here has the same opinion (doesn't mean its always right) before dropping $400 I would proceed with caution unless you KNOW the 150 is a much better tube. Also there... | |
| Primaluna - Rolling pre tubes question... Maybe what he is saying if you change out 1 pair it changes the sound significantly to the characteristics of that tube and the rest doesn't have quite that much of an effect. Make sense? | |
| Primaluna - Rolling pre tubes question... Oh my bad I overlooked the fact it was a preamp only. I've been so focused on my integrated so I am not sure. Have you Googled or searched Audiogon in the meantime? | |
| Primaluna - Rolling pre tubes question... The 2 front tubes are all you need to replace. They have the most affect on the sound. |
