I had the DIs and have since upgraded to the DI SEs, but I do not yet have a fully informed assessment of the differences because my SEs are still going through the break in process.Based on what I have heard so far, I think what you get with the ... | |
| Line Magnetic 508ia and the Elusive 805 Tube @slaw3 After doing a lot of reading on the excellent and very informative discussion on the Steve Hoffman website regarding tube rolling in the LM 508, I tried the EML XLS 300B tubes, which are excellent and definitely a step up from the stock tub... | |
| HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ??? Agree completely with everything grannyring said. Much more difficult to sell stuff than it was a few years ago. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Glad to see this discussion motoring right along. I want to echo david_ten's observations on break-in. It took my Double Impacts at least 300-400 hours to reach their peak, and I am finding that the SEs are taking just as long or longer. Unfortuna... | |
