Amp for new Meadowlark Krestel 2's ?

Hello Beernut. Firstly, congrats on your new tube amp. It would be a good idea to follow the astute advice of Unsound. All dimmer switches will cause some hum in an audio system and have no place in a room with a good high resolution audio system that employs vacuum tubes. If you can live without it, a standard switch should eliminate your problem. You may want to try a cheater plug as well. Best of luck.

Thanks guys, I will heed your well received advise.

Beernut,

Simply replace the dimmer with a higher quality unit from Lowes or Home Depot. Chances are the dimmer was installed orginial construction on your home and is probably the cheapest thing on the shelf the builder could find.

Go with a high quality Lutron dimmer. I use one in my dedicated listen room mainly for mood lightly and I get ZERO hum with my Cary SLI-80. Dead Quiet.

I posted the link to the dimmer used in my listening room below for you.
