I sold the Belles. They were definitely not compatible and were not powerful enough to drive my system.
The NuForce are much stronger, and they sound fabulous.

Question for tube aficionados
I have a vintage Conrad-Johnson PV 11 preamp.
I’ve always re-tubed it with the cheapest tubes from Tube Depot (e.g. Electro-Harmonix 12AU7 and 12AX7, Sovtek 5751 and the like.). I’ve been very happy with the sound.
My question is:
Would it be worthwhile to spend more money on more exotic tubes?
Would there be any appreciable difference in the sound?
I’m powering the system with NuForce Reference 9 V3 monoblocks.

Interesting. The figures in this review suggest an average-ish impedance curve. http://www.hifi-classic.net/review/dahlquist-dq-20-243.html Did the modifications make them harder to drive? |
