| Joule Electra Amp Repair Try Signature Sound in Rochester. There is post saying they repaired a JE amp. | |
| Evaluation of the Coincident Statement Phono Stage From my reading and some limited experience, it appears that SUT selection is very cartridge specific and that interconnect effects are "multiplied" when you go that route. If you have the time, patience and $$ to make those determinations, then s... | |

| Goodbye ZYX Airy 3 I believe that if you run a search, you will see that Dougdeacon has posted his impressions of the Universe II, about which he thought highly enough to trade in his Uni. As far as pricing goes, IF the yen tracks the Euro, then the price increase c... | |
| Room correction - what device works best? "It is well documented that multiple subs can achieve better results than an equivalent single sub in appropriately sized rooms. Typically smoother frequency response from spreading room nodes and higher output/lower distortion from twice the woof... | |

| Tesla Tubes Hard to generalize. Gold pins are presumed better due to their corrosion resistance. Diamond stamp is AFAIK, refers to the mark molded into the bottom of Telefunken tubes. Not sure how it applies to Tesla tubes. Also be aware that many of the olde... | |
| Thinking about buying a different tube preamp... Glad to hear today has been a good one. I hope the smiles come more frequently than the tears as time goes on, but I imagine that's a very unpredictable and bumpy ride. | |
| Brass screws make a real difference on Dunlavy s ? Interesting. Just remember, the next step after nice and tight is really loose. | |
| Thinking about buying a different tube preamp... Abucktwoeighty- The Modwright is a very good unit. More toward the neutral side of the tubey vs. solid state spectrum. I still don't think that there is really any advantage to running a pre-amp into a PVC as a long term solution. Better to match ... | |
| Thinking about buying a different tube preamp... why a pre-amp and a PVC? |
