Has anyone tried the Coincident Dynamo 34SE

Thanks, and good luck.

Well, finally got the Emotiva CMX, but the hum is exactly the same. Nothing I've tried has made any difference. So, it's back to Coincident in Canada for service. Hopefully, they'll be able to diagnose the issue quickly and get it back to me relatively soon. Shipping took three weeks to get here (Oregon), so at that rate it will probably be a couple of months before I get the unit back. I guess I'll just pretend that I like my solid state amp in the meantime :)

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions. I'll let you know when I get it back and how it works out.

Best, Scott

Here is a bit of helpful information.this is a exceptional Amplifier.
There is no amplifier I know of with this build quality for even 2x the cost.
The build the only thing build overseas is the very well finished
Stainless steel case work ,made in Hong Kong. The most critical
Part of any Vacuum tube amp is the transformers .these transformers
Are made in Japan with 6-9s Copper usually called 0-crystal Copper
I no of any Company doing this at anywhere near this price.
The Tubes get rid off -China regular grade,and put good current made Or NOS tubes .
A huge jump in performance .Everything else is sourced mostly from
North America or Europe.i switched Rectifier to the classic Mullared 5ar4
Indirect triode.no flash on startup .direct heater does.
The current made Soviet Mullard EL-34 tubes very good.
6SL7 driver tubes NOS Tungsol or red base RCA are great. Or even current are good. Buy a good power cord over $200 if possible you will be rewarded. Also a 3 A slow 20 mm Hifi tuning Supreme to top off the sonics.
8wpc SET power sounds much much more powerful and excellent 3 d imaging and resolution with solid Bass. Use a powered sub Xover high around 90 then you can can use with many speakers at least 88db.
Also this is point to point wired using the Excellent star grounding methods.
Any hum chances are it is in your system down stream.

Audioman 58,
Couldn't agree more. This is one great amp. I had my mind blown again
today listening to it. I bought, on Jeff Day recommendation via his Blog,
NOS Western Electric 16ga speaker wire (almost impossible to get
worldwide today) and Belden 8402 Microphone cable as interconnect
terminated with Switchcraft 3502AAU RCAs. The cost was a remarkable
$1.15 per foot for the WE 16ga and about $2.75 for the Belden. These are
both stranded tin copper wires. Jeff Day was alerted to these speaker and
interconnects by a Japanese builder of the SPEC amps, Yazaki-San, while
doing a review of the SPEC integrated for Positive Feedback. Yazaki-San
uses these wires as his reference; he stated they have the sound signature
of the WE 274B from the 40s with the old etch code, not any of the newer
models. YaZaki-San calls the WE 16ga an "artistic" speaker
wire, transparent, warm, natural, organic, full of color texture, right-sized
instruments and more. Day compared them to his Sablon $$$ cables, equal
but different. I couldn't agree more. Yazaki-San also builds some great
300B amps according to Day. My PS Audio Statments, various Goertz
99.99% Silver and Kimber are going to be sidelined. Really special stuff.

My Coincident Dynamo has Red Base, Shuguang Black Treasure 6CA7s,
Mullard 5AR4s from about '67, plus I swap in 274B at various times. It is
Killer good. Going for Triode Wire Labs power cables next.

Hi Rob,
I had the chance to use a well broken in Triode Wire Lab(TWL)in my system for a while. A kind audiogon member loaned me the TWL and his Hi Diamond P3 cords(he was just curious to know my impression of them). The Hi Diamond was good but I preferred the TWL in my system. I believe you're going to be very pleased with this natural sounding power cord given what I know(or think I know) of your taste.
Charles,
