| Manley Amp is humming - troubleshoot :( thanks for the help! I opened it up , didnt seeing any glaring issues , I'll check more closely... | |
| Blown tube issue Yes...I know how to set bias and have done it periodically like Manley suggests ...I just completely re-tubed in October 2020 so one blew from previous owner set (expected) and one blew from the new set (unexpected) | |

| Allnic 1201 replacement tubes? @francoziI would contact Albert Porter on that , he's the expert...good luck! | |
| Allnic 1201 replacement tubes? @lewm pretty sure its a cold solder joint in my Manley preamp , it seems to have gone away for the time being ...I've swapped tubes L/R , its really intermittent ... | |
| Allnic 1201 replacement tubes? @francozi I’d come contact Albert Porter , he’s your man . Hooked me up with new Allnic 1202 , great guy . Good luck ! | |
| Tekton Double Impacts vs the competition.... @arcticdethTekton’s are great ....I really think it depends on what amp is driving them...I had a Lyngdorf 2170 , but when I switched to Manley 100w Snapper Mono blocks the difference was quite staggering in the bottom. I currently own the Tekton ... | |
| One Channel Down in Preamp Help @jetter thanks , mulling over all options , appreciate it ... | |
| One Channel Down in Preamp Help I choose to just have 2 of everything! I hate sending in gear & being down for a month ...My buddy who has dealt with Manley for years said "They will kick you to the back of the line, it'll take a long time" 😞 | |
| Genalex Gold Lion 12AX7 - different grades? @charan : I decided to just go with Manley's advice & just redo the Tung Sol EL34B. Since I retubed both snappers ....one of the tubes on the left is intermittent noisy , tap it , fine 😑. I think I'll try the Gold Lion's next up. | |
| Allnic 1201 replacement tubes? @pops I found the tool , it is very difficult to pull tubes , you’re right ! What a hassle . On top of that , now my left side is acting up , low volume and not as full , like a cold solder joint , 😫 even changed tubes , same result . | |
| Allnic 1201 replacement tubes? @tooblue I did ask Albert , he didn't know anything other than standard warranty replaces tubes within a year for free... 🤷🏻♂️ thanks | |
| Allnic 1201 replacement tubes? thanks guys ...Albert Porter also explained about the gel platform ...I bought this used and don’t think I have the tube puller . Albert recommended something wood of plastic to pry So I don’t get a voltage shock from built up caps . Thanks | |
| Purple Heart = Purple Rain? @tablejockey thanks so much , this helps...I have had my eye on the AT ART-9 for quite a while ...and I'm hesitant to do a trade in deal with Ortofon due to the Quintet Black crapping out after 23 months...I noticed Audio Technica original ART-9 d... | |
| Purple Heart = Purple Rain? @big_greg :Kron doesn't offer much of a warranty other than if you have a problem come back to me & 100% won't cover any stylus issue because you can always point to user error , so thats a big gamble for me. I wish there was a way to audition... |
