| Supratek Owners Thread @rms456 excellent to hear about your new arrival🤣. Once it breaks in and if you have an interest in upgrading your tubes I have several suggestions that made a definite improvement. I have rolled many 6sn7’s, 6f8g’s , 6l6’s as well as 5V rectifier... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread @jslateiv question for you on my 6 month old Cab volume control. Whenever I use the remote volume up or down I get a crackling sound. If I turn the volume knob up and down a few times it goes away but returns next time it’s turned on. Should th... | |
| Tidal or Qobuz Recently switched from Tidal to Qobuz after Tidal shut down their discounted annual subscription. Can’t distinguish a real sound difference between them…both are great. I do miss Tidal’s much better music selection in Blues, Folk, Bluegrass, Roc... | |
| Jolida JD-9 Upgrade @armstrod Burson V5i sounds interesting. Does the JD-9 take single or dual version? Thanks | |
| Jolida JD-9 Upgrade Can’t comment on wear and tear. I updated my JD-9 with new V-Caps ODAM, Tele tubes, Burr Brown OPAMPS, damping foam pads and transformer shield. Made a considerable improvement after cap break in. Sad part is that I stream 95% of my listening. ... | |
| Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please @lcherepkai Neurosis 🤣 that it is! Yes I told Mark I was interested in his new Rhodium sluggo. Not sure if the pigtail cord or box causes a slight change. Might be break-in or just me. Some folks feel the silver is a little extended on the edg... | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" @jmfinney i have been using the Swiss fuse box with Golden State Silver 4ga on my Supratek tube preamp for 2 days. I find it definitely sounds the best (over 100% copper and copper gold immersion) and I have not experienced distortion. Sounds fa... | |
| Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please @lcherepkai Ok here’s my update on initial results with the Swiss fuse box on my Supratek Cab preamp. Great quality product. Sound is excellent but just a tad less satisfying than when playing Sluggo’s without the protection. Just a little softe... | |
| Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please @lcherepkai my speakers aren’t bi-amped they have the 1200w class D subs built into the towers. Sound-wise: Tighter, clearer bass, slightly more volume, improved soundstage depth and more defined hi’s without brightness. Just overall improvemen... | |
| Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please @lcherepkai added silver slugs to my GE Tritan towers with active subs. Another Wow. Really appreciate you suggesting the silver slugs, they really make a difference. I also ordered a Swiss fusebox for extra protection on my Supratek preamp an... | |
| What is meant exactly by the description 'more musical'? Enlightening discussion on “Musical” in terms of amplifiers 🤔. Yikes…if I could only figure out Liquid, Bloom, Veiled, and Rolled-off😳 | |
| Have you asked yourself this question? Yes all the time. There is an emotional attachment to my years growing up with lp’s.. Already sold all my CD’s, CD transport and most of my lp’s. Only getting a few dollars each. Problem is for the few hundred dollars I would get for my turnta... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread Very nice to hear another happy Supratek owner. Its the best stereo system decision I have made. I am blown away how good my speakers sound. I had no idea they had it in them. 🤣 My wife walked by my chrome Cabernet and said “That is a really ... |
