Supratek Owners Thread @jslateiv many thanks for the excellent explanation. All good…the Cab only makes noise using the remote. | |
Tidal or Qobuz Sad to say but if you really value library content and HiRes you need both… | |
Any other Pipe And Slippers Audiophiles out there? That’s just like my Grand Dad…I really appreciate this thread making me feel young hanging out with my parents gen🤣 | |
what should I get to replace what I am planning to try @freediver +100%. 🤣LMAO!, | |
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😳 |
