| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements Regarding attempting to buy the tweeters through allicdata, my purchase seems to be in some kind of limbo. The sight is a bit strange in that you create an order, and they are supposed to get back to you with a quote. Although the amount for the... | |
| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements Either the music and/or the room was off in the demos I found (one video showed a wall of glass close to and directly behind the speakers). I tend to agree - for the Tantos but also for a lot of other audio gear. Online reviews of your speake... | |
| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements After reading multiple reviews of the Tanto V1 I tried to find a good sound demo, but only found bad ones. I'm not sure what you mean by a sound demo? Do you mean in-store, at a show, or online? I tend to think it's very difficult to find any... | |
| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements DeKay, thanks for the great explanation! I generally like the sound of the Tantos and have always believed that a large reason for their clarity is due to the lack of a crossover. I have no real experience in speaker design, though, so that has ... | |
| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements I just looked at the sensitivity spec of around 85dB @ 4 ohms. The low spec # is how the designer padded it down. Hi DeKay. What do you mean by "padded it down"? Sorry if this is a nooby question. | |
| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements @dekay, apologies, that does look like the correct replacement. Not sure about shipping from HK to US (or how reliable/trustworthy they are), but it may be something to look into so thanks for the link. I'm still interested, however, in hearing ... | |
| Q. re Gemme Tanto Tweeter Replacements Thanks for the replies. Though I wasn't able to find an exact replacement at allicdata.com - or anywhere else - Madisound may have a suitable replacement. I was hoping, however, that there may be some forum members who have actual experience wit... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Thanks, @danmar123, I appreciate your response! It would be interesting to hear any other feedback on the Linlai Global Es - especially comparisons with other tubes - and perhaps including thoughts on the bass region. | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @danmar123, thanks very much for reporting back. Can you describe any specific characteristics regarding the Linlai Globals in comparison to your other tubes? I realize everyone’s system and ears are different, but it may be helpful to know what a... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @danmar123, apologies, I'm not sure which post you mean. | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Thanks, @lowrider57! Please let us know if you hear back. This may make sense based on the info from @pindac on the last page. The Linlai Global website includes the following phrase describing the Global series: ...without exaggerating... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes I tried both the Linlai E-6sn7 and their less expensive Global Hi-Fi 6sn7 in my amps. I prefer the sound of the Global Hi-Fi version. The bass is better on that one and the overall tonal balance seemed to be more neutral. The E-6sn7's seemed to a... | |
| Grant Fidelity Treasure Globe 6SN7 SE We did a comparison and IMO they sounded very similar- and both excellent. However, the globe structure has a decided resonance that the Linlai does not. As long as you don't have microphonic problems its no worries, but any microphonics the tube... | |
| Grant Fidelity Treasure Globe 6SN7 SE I'm writing to "second" the question by the OP. I'm surprised no one has answered as I'm sure there are a lot of 6SN7 users out there and a Linlai 6SN7 thread discussing a similar tube is going like wildfire. Does anyone have any experience with... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Great thread. Has anyone compared the Linlai Elite E-6SN7 to Grant Fidelity's Treasure Globe 6SN7-SE?? These are the top two 6SN7 tubes Grant Fidelity offers and it would be great to hear any experiences comparing the two. I think I saw this qu... |
