| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? Jesus - Thanks for your input...it may help others considering EL34 tube changes.Albert - The Classic Tubes site helped me further appreciate the ways in which "not all NOS is created equal". After reviewing the info there, I felt more confident s... | |
| Groove Tubes GT-6CA7-GE vs NO GE and NOS Sylvania The numbers relate to how soon breakup occurs (a guitar amp issue). You want the highest number for 2 channel apps. (i.e., late breakup). Visit Doug's Tubes. | |
| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? To all who replied...Thanks for your input. For various reasons (not just cost)...I decided to go with SED Winged C EL34s. If these don't get the job done, I'll give further consideration to the Siemens NOS option. What I've leared that complicate... | |
| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? Thanks, Bj...I can say for sure, votes for current production EL34 favor Winged SED heavily. I'm with you on $ expenditure for NOS. The Siemens are within reach but even here I'm a bit confused and seeing pricing that seems to vary from $225 - $30... | |
| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? Joe - Thanks for the input. Albert did mention SED Winged Cs as the best of current production EL34s. I'd also seen many positive comments on these. I do appreciate your input on the EH and the GT Mullard clone in particular. The concept behind th... | |
| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? Thanks, Facten - Yup, been checking out Kevin Deal's site a good bit lately. Saw the Siemens there. A little unsure about their fit in my system based on the customer mini-review at the bottom of the page. | |
| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? Gentlemen, Albert & Lloyd, - A sincere, "Thank You" for your input. First. I'm encouraged that the Shuguang tubes can be bettered! I've read many good things about NOS Mullards (sonics and longevity) and did understand the GoldLion KT77s refer... | |
| HiFi tuning fuses, some benefits help Jwong - Thanks for your reply. My response, probably a bit of an over-reaction, was not directed at your comments specifically. I have to say I was a bit surprised they made a difference in my system but that also applies to changing out interconn... | |
| HiFi tuning fuses, some benefits help Compared to the cost of so many other "audiophile" tweaks, $30 is pretty inexpensive and worth an experiment if nothing more. I tried the HiFi Tuning Fuse in my relatively low cost/entry level system. It made a difference in the JoLida 502B I was ... | |
| Music or Lyrics? If you are asking me to choose one over the other - it would be music vs lyrics - for sure. In general, I prefer instrumentals to songs, given the option. To my mind, words tend to anchor the song. Music without words....that's something magical. | |
| What music do you want to play really loud? Mountain "Missippi Queen"MC5 | |
| Best Outer Sleeves for LPs Hey Kurt_tank - happy someone picked up on my lame attempt at humor! | |
| Best Outer Sleeves for LPs ...I vote for "cubits" as a base-line unit of measure. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Hall & Oates - "Abandoned Luncheonette"....the whole thing but then, 'Everytime I Look at You' (the last track). F'ing A! can these cats sing!!! ("Baby it's goodbye!"). Wow. 36 year old vinyl. Amen to that. | |
| The Entire Band Gets Writing Credit Reading a book now, "According to the Rolling Stones". The perception that Jagger/Richards had a lock on songwriting credits is certainly warranted and rooted in their history. None the less, as per Ronnie Wood, with a lot of perserverance and dip... |
