| Which REL sub, R528 or B2 As a fellow C1 owner I have been very happy with my Rel B3. I did at first think it was slow but that was because I didn't have the phasing/timing right. I had to move it about 3" back to finally get it right. Also on a whim I bought a Nordost Bas... | |

| Alternate Power Tubes for a Cary V12R I've done some tube rolling but with an Octave integrated. First - I can't think of any output tubes at $50-60 a pair. Most current production output tubes are closer to 50-60 each. That being said you may want to try some Genalex KT77's. My perso... | |
| Dynaudio C1 II vs Focal Micro BE vs Harbeth SHL5 I've never compared the V70 and V80 side by side but have heard the V80 many times. The V80 has even better transformers and a different topology. The V70 has a 12ax7 input and the V80 uses a 12at7. V70 uses 12at7 drivers and the V80 uses the 12au... | |
| Dynaudio C1 II vs Focal Micro BE vs Harbeth SHL5 Sounds great but now that I have about 25 hrs on it the KT120's are sounding very forward. I want to get at least 100 hrs on them before making a judgement. Just before I traded in the V70SE I had the Ei KT90's in with the stock drivers (Rca 12at7... | |
| Dynaudio C1 II vs Focal Micro BE vs Harbeth SHL5 D160 - What tubes do you have the V70? Are they biased properly? I've done some tube rolling and certain combo's can sound pretty bad. I wouldn't think lack of power would cause harshness. If anything the harshness may be a tube going bad or a bia... | |
| Interconnects that offer a mid-bass lift Kiwi....If you have a Nordost dealer near by ask if you could borrow some of the new Tyr2 cables. I recently upgraded my Frey Ic to the Tyr2 and I hear what you're asking for. I had the demo case and the Sc's made a bigger difference than the Ic's... | |
| Int amp and Dynaudios Srz888 Forgot to mention Dyn's like and sound best with good clean current - not necessarily watts. | |
| Int amp and Dynaudios Srz888 I started with the original C1's being driven with a Bryston B100sst and thought it sounded great. Then one day my dealer brought over an Octave V70SE. The tubes weren't even warmed yet and I was convinced how much better it sounded. Even t... | |
| What causes some transports to oscillate? Thanks for correcting me Al. Guess I had it backwardsGeorge | |
| What causes some transports to oscillate? Actually the disc rotates the slowest with the first track because it is closest to the center. The information is more compressed there. The disc will speed up as it moves outward to the end tracks (less compression).That being said I've never he... | |
| Anyone try KT 120 Tubes in Primaluna Dialogue? Mikirob - Are you looking for a sound quality or more power than a 6550/KT88 or KT90? I ask because most people think they will get more power by dropping a KT120 in place of a KT88. I asked that question because my thoughts were without having hi... | |
| about the kt 120 tube I think the KT 120 has a very reasonable price. I wonder if this is true?http://www.hificomponents.ru/publ/news_new_power_vacuum_tube_kt150/1-1-0-33 | |
