| V-Cap Odam or Miflix output caps In preamp Welllll, I went with the audyn true copper max. They were calling to me. Damn that's a big cap, barely got it in there. So far they sound absolutely incredible, except vocals are really quite muddy. I've read that's what these sound like as th... | |
| Sonido Field Coil Driver Speaker I also am using almost all duelund. They definitely will sound better with break in, they can be pretty aweful to start. I agree they seem like a good match, I'm playing around with sizes right now, going to try 16ga with 12ga and see how that sou... | |
| Sonido Field Coil Driver Speaker It's a lovely driver with all the nuance and detail I was looking for in a field coil driver. I'm using mine open baffle and am getting a midbass from Istvan, since open baffle needs helpers, generally. | |
| V-Cap Odam or Miflix output caps In preamp @grannyring appreciate that. I wish the odam were available in canada but I'll probably stick to ordering from parts connexion.The mundorf were where I was leaning but a tad bit concerned it would be too much - I'm used to looking for warmth and ... | |
| V-Cap Odam or Miflix output caps In preamp Old thread but Google brought me here so may as well jump in and see if I get any opinions. Looking to choose a coupling cap for my tube preamp. Very happy with my system, but one thing I am looking to tweak towards is greater detail and transpa... | |
| Duelund cap break in time So I opened it back up and...I had made a very stupid mistake. I'm good at paying lots of attention until I get to the part that seems routine and then I mess that up (this time biasing). Sounding great now. Well not great great but definitely th... | |
| Duelund cap break in time Yeah 500-1000 is dumb to say I’m just grasping. I did lose the volume on my woofers (it has a mkdbass and woofer in a 3 way open baffle) and that certainly makes it listenable. Had to turn it down by about 50% though which seems pretty nuts...I ca... | |
| Duelund cap break in time Yes I did them all at the same time, balance between preferring to do one at a time and getting stuff done while I'm in there. Same values used for everything. I'll try to basically ignore it and let it play as much as possible over the weekend ... | |
| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? Good news man, good job figuring it out. | |
| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? Hey - I would send you a msg but I can't. I have the same username in the other place though. I think mine is the prototype for the mono blocks, that's my guess, it's a dual mono stereo amp which is the only one made, and it was made just before ... | |
| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? Sorry, just read your last post...I'm sure the triode sounds amazing, sucks about the remote situation though. I just suggested the Pre1, which I actually have paired with a triode labs parallel 2a3. Sounds fantastic together. I've decided to sel... | |
| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? Lab12 Pre1. Absolutely wonderful preamp and can get much cheaper than $2k. If you have any interest in mods, it makes a great platform for that. | |
| Tonearm paralysis by analysis Yeah, that a solution, but I have a hankering for something different. Time for a change. | |
| Reviewing the fabulous Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables I really loved those cables but unfortunately my kitten chewed them up. A bummer as they seemed very transparent. | |
| Lab12 Integre4 review from new owner I thought I would chime in here, older thread I know. I'm shopping for a tube dac and intended to buy the lab12 but got a bit sidetracked by some negative reviews or people saying it was only good for acoustic music. I tried the melto and didn't ... |
