Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁 🤣 5 , 10, can we hear 15? Great to hear the big boys really getting behind Puron. I have 2 each on my HT system and 2 channel systems and love the sound and picture quality improvements. Not subtle at all. And Mark is such a great guy to discu... | |
Cable elevators Yep made some from scrap maple for a fun experiment. Used them to lift and separate my speaker’s built in sub power cords and speaker cables off the wood floor. After several hours of comparison listening I have to say the experiment was a succe... | |

DAC Under $3000 +1 Lab 12 reference DAC (bought Mint 6 mo used $1800) with 1960 French Phillips (Mazda, RT, Dario Miniwatt) e188cc tubes is fantastic. +1 Also have a Black Ice Audio DSD Glass DAC with 1950 Rca 12AX7 Blackplate It is really good and plays way ab... | |
Lab12 Integre 4 MKII - user review 👍👍 well done! Thanks for sharing. | |
Fritz Speakers Best speaker value that I can imagine! Super Quality drivers, well matched crossovers and beautiful classic wood cabinets. I feel like a criminal for stealing my Rev 5 SE’s on the used market for $1200 shipped to my door. Best purchase decision... | |

New video review of Fritz Carbon 7 SE Mk. II "Punches above its weight" Thanks for sharing the Fritz video. Such a great person to talk to and these speakers continually amaze me. I have the runt of the family in the Rev 5 SE’s. Couldn’t be happier and these special speakers. They do it all and I can’t get over the... | |
Revisiting Chinese Knockoff Cables Agree the Odin 2 and gold cables are an exceptional value. Would like to add the flat Audiocrast (identical to the Valhalla ones) speaker cables are as well. Better than the Odin 2 silver in my systems. These cables are the best cables I have h... | |
Revisiting Chinese Knockoff Cables Curious…which Valhalla cables (reg or II, speaker or other?) and which Audience style did you compare? Also, what’s the price of the cables? Thanks | |
Can’t buy output tubes anywhere except from manufacturers at high prices. @hiendmmoe For what it is worth I purchased some Russian preamp tubes that were advertised as New, NOS and Matched. When they arrived they were not new. The boxes had testing results that were not anywhere close to being matched. When I tested th... | |
Audio Hungaray Qualiton A50i vs LTA Z40+ Integrated I bought a 6 month old LTA z40+ with NOS Mullard and Gold Lion EL34 and did not care for the sound and sadly resold it in less than a month. It sounded very SS with hollow bass compared to my Raven Tube Amp. The clarity, instrument separation an... | |
Supratek Owners Thread @isaacc7 Oh well I think I will start out with traditional 6sn7 tubes. I really don’t want to mess around with adapters starting out. Mick included a 40-50’s Radiotron 6SN7gt pair made in Australia. I have pairs of Rca grey glass 6SN7gt’s, Rca ... | |
Supratek Owners Thread @isaacc7 Thank you for your helpful tube expertise. I am not familiar with many of these tube types. Which types would be direct drop in’s for the 6v cabernet without using adapters? Much appreciated! | |
Revisiting Chinese Knockoff Cables @reimarc what did your DIY cables end up setting you back? |
