| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? Again I feel you are missing my point. I am assuming you make amps, funnily enough I make records. So what I care about is musical engagement, this really has nothing to do with accuracy. Why I feel accuracy is anti musical is because you are focu... | |
| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? “It’s really about SETs being a musical instrument rather than a music reproducer. Fun, but it’s not at all accurate to the recording. That profound ever-lovin' 2nd harmonic gets a richness that isn't part of the original recording; that is why I ... | |
| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? Hey Atam, you’re entirely right, I have push pull amps too and love them. But that’s not my point. The 300b/2A3/45/50 tube world is a culture unto itself. And I find that huge fun to be a part of. Not only do they (or I should say, they can) s... | |
| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? Again don’t listen to anyone here, me included😂 With all due respect to others here, you don’t need a higher power amp, and a 2A3 amp is or is not better then a 300b, there is no such thing in this world as better. Every time you change your spea... | |
| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? It always bothers me when some asks about a lower power tube amp and someone chimes in with, get a higher powered amp. To me if you want a 300b, 2A3 or 45 amp get one. I have all three. I listen to music all day and at good volume and one room is ... | |
| Where does music come from that streams? Speaking as someone familiar with record companies, usually the master used for the cd is also supplied to the streamers. Some services, like Qobuz, request a higher bit rate file, in that case often the lp master is used, if a 24 bit lp master wa... | |
| Second-hand record stores in Tokyo There are a lot of used record stores in Tokyo, in Japan really. Many of them specialize. They’ll be a whole book in fact on used record stores and what their specialities are. One thing to keep in mind is, many of them are not in the first floor.... | |
| Lush and Romantic Tube Amps You’re not going to like this answer, hifi is of course very personal. I like a tubey sound, - not a sound that has tubes but wants to be closer to an integrated circuit profile. Which to me means using a low power amp, because the tubes that hav... | |
| Does streaming music equate to high concert ticket prices I think it’s partially the fact that most tickets for concerts go through one company, the fact that bands saw scalpers make off with huge payoffs and the fact, I feel most importantly, that your interested in older music that you listened to when... | |
| Tube stereo sounds -smaller- after being on Hi DeKay, I've been in Mississippi last week, so have done nothing. Someone suggested the rectifier tube which is a good suggestion. I don't think I have a spare. My EMT turntable however, needs a power converter so I can take that out of the syst... | |
| Tube stereo sounds -smaller- after being on Hey Mijostyn, everybody has their mindsets. Some people think the world is flat or the US never landed on the moon. I’ve been making records for the last 40 years, before cd and digital. I was around when cd’s were going to solve everything, and d... | |
| Tube stereo sounds -smaller- after being on Ok a couple of posts to unpack here. Pindec not to open a can of worms, but I’m more in the musical nirvana side of things as opposed to high fi nirvana. The system has a fault somewhere, so you’re right the equipment doesn’t need to be changed, I... | |

| Tube stereo sounds -smaller- after being on The mixer is a great sounding one hand built in Australia called a Condesa Lucia. | |
| Tube stereo sounds -smaller- after being on Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I only thought about the line voltage being an issue when I wrote the above post. The amp came with a Chinese made voltage regulator that doesn’t seem to be adjustable and shows 217 volt output on the led screen.... |
