| Cap change advise for a Symphonies V2 preamp? Rodman99999,The values I have are as follows: output caps .22uF 450v, coupling caps 1uF 450v, and the wima caps 1uF 450v. These are the values from the TNT review but they are for the first version. I still believe nothing has changed for my versi... | |
| Cap change advise for a Symphonies V2 preamp? I thank you for the links and info. I'll do some shopping for the best price. I recently thought about selling but I'm a tweaker at heart Rodman99999 so stay tuned. | |
| Cap change advise for a Symphonies V2 preamp? Hey Rodman99999,As always I thank you for your info. My problem is two of the three pairs have values but the output caps don't. TNT did mention the values so I may have to do some research. Perhaps changing one pair at a time? BTW lots of room bu... | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes No worries Rodman99999. Not to change the subject but I posted a thread in reference to a cap upgrade for my symphonies pre. Any suggestions? | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes Hi Rodman99999,After I posted my question to you I checked on the 6201 tubes and did find the comaprison to the 12AT7. I went back to the Tungsol 12AX7's made for my pre and was pleased with what I heard. Though I thought the Tungsram 12AT7's had ... | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes Hi Rodman99999,Thanks for your added comments. As stated I have replaced a pair of AX for a pair of AT's with no ill effects other than the lower gain. Tell me more about the 6201 tubes as I don't have knowledge about them. Will they work in place... | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes I beg to differ. The links given do state that these tubes are interchangable. I have done this as mentioned in my setup with no ill effects. Of course Sebrof the decision is your call. Good listening. | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes Sebrof let us know what you think when you get them installed. | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes A follow up with the 12at7 tubes: I have a pair of Tungsram tubes that I brought for a VTL pre that was sold. I kept the tubes so hence the post. Installed them this afternoon (replaced a pair of Tungsol) and WOW. No difference in gain to my ears ... | |
| 12at7 with 12ax7 tubes My thanks to all. I guess my question then is what Gmuffley is stating. I don't want to change components and don't want any damage to boot. I'll check the links given by Rodman99999 and go from there. | |
| has lead shot surpassed cold I second Mcfarland's suggestion. I did change stands from Target to Atacama which have the ability to add more sand. Good move for my Triangle Stellas. | |
| Tubes for Modulus 3A Have you tried a pair of Mullards? Though a little pricey there are bargains around. The Modulus pieces are hard on tubes from what I read. | |
| Need info on a Ken-Rad 5z4-MG tube Hi Al,Thanks for your response. I wish I had a way to test it for shorts etc. It sounds like something is loose when turned upside down. Even with the holes it's hard to see the inside. Perhaps I'll find someone that can take a look see.Regards an... | |
| 10k or 100k stepped pot---how do I test? Thanks Magnumpi205,I opened the BEZ today but didn't find any values. I guess I'll need those magnifying glasses. Perhaps someone familiar with the BEZ line could steer me in the right direction. |
