tube suggestion

Zonus- I have tried the Mullards, Teles', GE 5 Stars and Dutch Amperex in my CAL Alpha and the Amperex are what I stayed with.
Sean- It seems that Kevin Deal recommends Mullards for everything. He said the same thing to me when I asked for suggestions for my C-J PV11. Personally, I find Mullards too vailed.

I find the Mullards a bit veiled too. I also like the Amperex for a full bodied clean sound.

thanks for the advice. any thoughts on where i can score a couple of tubes? im thinking upscale audio or parts connection.

try the Tube Store - thetubestore.com or 1-877-570-0979.

Zonus: You will also want to research the 5751 tube (as well as 12AX7's) for this DAC. Recommendations for both may be obtained by searching the tube and digital forums @ (audioasylum.com). From the descriptions there you will be able to limit the possible choices, (being dependent on what type of sound it is that you are looking for).
