Best 300b single-ended Tube amp. for the $ I think you are making very good choises, I heard the Zu sounding very good, maybe at it's best, and thought it a great speaker at any price. I also agree that cable distinctions become much more pronounced as eff increases. | |
Favorite H H Scott Tube Integrated Amplifier Just picked up a 222c, needs filter caps, I'll boost them by at least 100% tightens up the bass, keeps the mids clear as the volume goes up. I'll probably go with auracaps for coupling caps- this has worked wonders on other Scotts I've moded. May ... | |
300b, x45, 211, etc. Very interesting Biomimetic, the Rocket uses some dc bias in the out put transformers, just as in single ended-the ONLY push-pull design to my knowledge that does so . BTW I've heard the paradigms and couln'd agree more, just on low powered SETs I... | |

EL34 Integrated One other possibility: Harmon -Kardon MKV , uses 5881 , or EL34's with Huge output transformers, sound similar ( if not indentical) to the famous Citation II's . I found a working amp in Ann Arbor , MI for $175. For my money by far the best buy, b... | |
I need HELP with my LP12 based system I can tell you about 5 years ago I went FINAL turntable shopping. Listened to SOTA, VPI, and last, becuase I never thought I would buy it , Linn. The LP 12 didn't do anything for me , but when I put my test LP ( Miles and Monk at Newport) on an LP... | |
EL84M tube rolling? You might try NOS 7189's as they were meant to handle more power than 6BG5's (EL84). I've never had a problem with them in any amp. Good listening, and best of luckRichard |
