@pindac Dear PINDAC, may I ask where to buy D.U.C.C. bulk wires? Thank you.

How about simply using braided copper shield as ground wire for the power cable? I don't think it play a critic role other than protection. It meets the gauge requirement as well. Regards.

Dear Steve and mawe, Thank you for the inputs. AECO also have all-sivler RCA plugs with similar structure to ETI/KLEi. Not sure how good it is compared to KLEi Absolute harmony. Sincerely - Wayne    
Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling
Dear Steve,   Thank you very much for the quick response.   Another relevant question, if I have the choice to go with XLR or RCA interconnects within 2 meters (by buying or building custom-tailor (pre)amplifiers), will Helix XLR be a better c...

What a wonderful read! Thank you all for the sharing.   I have two questions that I cannot find a clear answer from Steve's site or in this thread.   1. For USB cable, is there significant improvement from AWG24 to AWG18? The USB type A and B ...

Hi, has anyone got the chance to compare Voxativ vs Cube top model? Or maybe a comparison between their top drivers directly? Thanks.  
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Hi, Dracule1, Glad it all works out for you. I am going through a long system upgrade/transit. After I am settled, I will try Elrog again. Cheers. 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Hi, Dracule1, we pm'ed about rectifier at another forum (I was not able to registered for the same user name). Anyhow, 5z4gy -> Cossor 53KU / WE422a -> WE274A/B & Takatsuki 274B. I am now using Takatsuki 274B and like it. No chance to co... 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Hi, Dracule1,I am glad it works out for you. I totally understand your absence. :pElrogs produce the lowest sound floor on Lampi compared to other tubes. And thus the details and transparency. Like I said, you don't even have to a/b to hear the di... 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Hello, Dracule1, have you solved the issue? What is your impression of the sound? I am eager to know, since I hope that they don't alter the tube too much for longer use, at the cost of sound. Like I said, I really miss them on my Lampi. :) 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Dracule1,Sorry for the bad news. Elrogs are supposed to be great even without breaking in. And their sound signature doesn't change much during burnt-in process. I am not sure if Elrog change the formula a little bit and cause the difference. WYAN 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
I was courageous enough to put the Takatsuki 300B on Lampi briefly. Well, the difference from Psvane WE101D 1:1 replica was very subtle if any. I guess I am really missing Elrog 300B's. They were the most resolving tubes on Lampizator.Maybe after ... 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Similar experience here. Good right out of box. :) 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Elrog 300B's were dead quite on my Lampizator big 7. I still missed their sound very much! Sigh.I do believe that Elrog and Takatsuki are the best current production 300B's. Takatsuki 300B's on Frankensteins and Voxativ reproduce the best treble t...
