| Optimizing the Prima Luna Premium Integrated amp I love the sound of my recently acquired NOS Mullard 4024s (replaced my JAN Philips 12At7s due to one failing)...and they seem reasonably priced. | |
| Need speaker advice Alan Yun is a nice dude and I'm sure he would remedy the issue if you allow him...tweeters don't cost anywhere near the price you were quoted so I'd be very suspicious of your "dealer." You can look up some prices of Dynaudio Esotec tweeters in ab... | |
| Jolida 502 KT120 tube swapping Yeah...I had heard about Mullard Flashing and also was calmed when I looked up specific information about it. It adds a dramatic moment to amp start-up that otherwise would be a non-dramatic event. Maybe my threshold of entertainment is too low. | |
| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test Interestingly, or not, the "pods" under my speakers isolate them somewhat from floor vibration from the front firing (older) REL sub that is has small felt skid pads under it...right behind one of the main speakers. That may be part of what's maki... | |
| Rate my rig Relly...it's the spelling errors. | |
| Rate my rig Does anybody realize the level of innanity revealed in this thread? After seeing more relevant and intelligently addressed threads shut down (a D'Aostino reliability discussion was shut down by the board monitors after the beloved Dan responded...... | |
| Who makes the highest quality tube amps? I have a Jolida that sounds great and has worked perfectly for over a year. | |
| Rate my rig "The dumb little punk faggots come over here from someone else's post. They never have nothing intelligent to say just come around and act like punk ass kids. In fact I think I will file a complaint on them." Perhaps the most entertaining post I'v... | |
| Tube upgrades for Jolida 502B? According to the 502P manual (or I would never have known) you're supposed to turn the bias screw all the way down when changing power tubes...I wondered what would happen if I didn't, but thanks to Jeninite24 I now know! I also bias the 120s to t... | |
| Tube upgrades for Jolida 502B? It has to do with the current supplied from the transformer for the tube "heater" or "filament" elements in the 120s...100mA to 300mA more than KT88s. Walter is simply wrong about this, and based on all the discussion about it in this forum, I'm s... | |
| Jolida 502 KT120 tube swapping Follow up: The Mullard 12at7s sound great. And the frightening glow explosion flash when the amp powers up is a beautiful thing. | |
| PrimaLuna Prologue 5 and tube upgrades After one of my JAN Philips 12at7s decided to commit Hari Kari it was suggested by Thetubestore I try the Mullards, and they're on the way. | |
| Switching preamps in and out Salectric and I live as brave rebels unafraid to dare the electrons around us...go ahead obscure grounding issue...make my day. | |
| NEED AUDIOQUEST TYPE 8 OR CV-8, PLEASE HELP. I've tried a LOT of connectors and now I use various AQ spade and banana (gold screw CF variants) connectors and they're extremely easy to install, look cool, and are built very well. Nobody seems to make a better screw-on spade or banana. I use s... | |
