Klyne 6PE: comments ?

Well, in these days I'm listening very much to vinyl (my CDP is getting jealous) and maybe it's not a roll off in the treble, maybe it's the Klyne's presence in the bass region that gave me that first sensation on the treble. My goodness, does the Klyne delivers bass !
Maybe I just have to reset my ears, or at least accustom them to such a strength in low frequencies. I searched for slam, well I've got it.
I know that could sound like an abrupt change of mind in only two days, but as I said before, the first days since I got the phono stage, it was more a struggle against hum (now won) than listening, so my latest post was just about my first "real" listening impressions.
And these are not my definitive impressions... I'll keep on listening.

Well again, the Klyne bass 'emphasis' is all in comparison to the ARC sound. As I said previously, I've owned a ARC Ref 3, and I have a friend who just bought a used ARC Ref 3 a few days ago. His first impression was "where did the bass go?" I told him that the Ref 3's bass is there, but it is very tight, which makes it seem anemic compared to most other audio gear. He's buying a new set of tubes, and hoping that will help with the lack of bass problems. I have a feeling he will be selling the Ref 3 in the not too distant future. The ARC sound is loved by many, but many also do not care for it.

I found the Klyne bass solid and powerful, but not as dynamic and powerful as other brands that I've heard, or even owned. I'm sure that it sounds very powerful compared to the ARC house sound though.

Maybe, but the ARC gear is still in my set up; the Klyne tool the place of an Electrocompaniet ECP-1.
So it's not exactly a comparison "before ARC - affer ARC", it's something more the Klyne adds, for good or not.
Well, these are still preliminary thoughts, I always need time to get to know well any new compoment that enters in my stereo.

Hello Daniele_g,

I appreciate you taking the time to tell us your impressions of the Klyne. I'm happy that you were able to sort out your hum issues! Take you time to get to know the Klyne. It's been some time since I've been able to hear one, but from my memory of it, it did more things right than not.

From what I remember, it had incredible micro dynamic shadings that really helped communicate the musical message. When listening to it, I wasn't thinking about whether it was tubed or solid state...it just played music.

I'd love to be able to spend some time with one again to see how I felt about them now.

Keep up posted as it continues to warm up and you become more accustomed to it.
