| speaker shopping It seems I'm the only one here who truly CARES about people, so to the OP specifically, I have to say there are no speakers currently made that will work in the room described so, unfortunately, you’re out of luck. Otherwise, when you move into a ... | |
| KT88 tubes for Monos Never trust musicians who know about tubes…trust me…I've been a pro musician for around 5 decades and I'm utterly untrustworthy, a fact you can trust. Also, why doesn't a musician amp company (like Mesa) make a KT150 based bass amp? WHY NOT? What ... | |
| Affordable Turntable Options Typo..I meant "it's A great sounding table." Also, I can recommend a Sumiko Pearl cartridge as that's what a nearby Turntable Expert (works at a local high end gear joint) sold me a few years ago after I was whining about the shrill tone I was hea... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Try this. Leave the listening room and have somebody swap your Special Fuses out (or not) and replace them with un-special fuses like something from Littelfuse or maybe Bob's Discount Fuse House…come back and listen to your rig…do this again a few... | |
| 12au7 or 12ax7 The sockets came with my relatively inexpensive Jolida 502p so maybe they’re NOT gold plated…but if they are I now wonder if I should replace them…hmmm….soldering is what the young girl wants…also I have to wonder what "many tube changes" means as... | |
| speaker shopping Bassdude…are you a Wavetouch Audio dealer? | |
| 12au7 or 12ax7 Current version Gold Lion 12AX7s are great tubes, and after trying various new and NOS options in my amp I'm now sticking with 'em. Note that the driver tubes in my amp are 12AT7s and I found that NOS Mullards not only sound great but "flash" when... | |
| KT88 tubes for Monos I don't care if the blue glass JJs sound good or not, but NOW I just want a set of them because they look so cool (I think Jedinite used those when he was using the same amp I have and liked them)…I've used JJs in guitar amps and they're a great t... | |
| What are the smallest speakers that are clean and flat down to 20hz? Conversely, what are the largest speakers with little to no bass? Inquiring minds… | |
| Jolida Reliability Weird…I talked to the Jolida guys (including Mike Allen, the founder) at length before (and during…they gave me a great deal on my "factory upgrade") buying my amp a few years ago and they were patient and informative…no attitude at all. Maybe thi... | |
| Jolida Reliability Since my last post here I've changed to (new Russian) Gold Lion KT88s and I like 'em better than the 150s…or I've grown up, although that's not likely. Groovy "exploding on start-up" Kevin Deal sourced gold pin Mullard 6201s (12AT7), and new versi... | |
| For a quick good time, blankets... Baaaaa | |
| For a quick good time, blankets... Are the listeners being blocked by sheep? Or is there an attempt at some form of mirth control?...I think it was oregonpapa that described the technique he recommends when enjoying sheep…something to do with dangerous hillsides or cliffs causing t... | |
| Best divorce album? Is Harry Nilsson’s "You’re Breaking My Heart" a divorce song? Seriously…I can’t post the lyrics here, but I recommend looking ’em up to see why.http://www.metrolyrics.com/youre-breaking-my-heart-lyrics-harry-nilsson.html | |
| Looking for speaker ideas. Many speakers will not play rock music simply because they refuse to do it. They could easily do it of course, as music specific speakers aren't a thing…but they refuse, and that's just wrong. |
