Anyone have Supratek amplifier? I'm so happy with my Supra preamp that I am thinking of a Supratek 300B or EL34 amp. Any feedback would be appreciated

I tried Ingress rollerblocks under my Grange and heard some nice sonic improvements.  From what I understand they are similar to Symposium rollerblocks but at a fraction of the price. I might try them also under the Supra power supply unit. Ther...

Well, I finally received my Signature Grange preamp after about 6 month long wait. I initially had ordered the Cortese LCR but later upgraded my order to Signature Grange. Mick has been wonderful to deal with. Currently the Supratek preamp is m...

Little update on my Cortese LCR order that I had placed with Mick a while back. I decided to upgrade my order to the Signature Grange. Can’t wait to receive it from Mick. Hope I have done the right thing and hope the 16 tubes won't heat up my r...

@brownsfan @charles1dad And everyone else. Thanks for taking the time to respond and offer your valuable thoughts. I was worried about 92.5db/8ohm efficiency of the SVIIIs. I do listen around 70-80 db volume levels but once in a while like to c...

Pass Labs XA30.8
