| Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough? @atmasphere My tech said this about the ST-35 mods we're discussing: "The datasheet lists a 10k plate-to-plate load for the tubes in triode mode and 8k plate-to-plate in ultra linear, so it's not that far off. Per the Mullard datasheet, power dr... | |
| Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough? @atmasphere Here's what Mike said: "It will almost certainty raise both the harmonic and intermodulation distortion in triode mode and drastically reduce the power, but it may be pleasant distortion." It will be switchable, so if it doesn't sound... | |
| Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough? @atmasphere I'll convey that to Mike and see what he says. Thank you. | |
| Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough? Brief update on my ST-35 -- my tech and I will be adding a switch so it can run in triode mode. If anyone has done this and has advice, we'd be happy to hear it. | |

| Moderator(s) Such a slippery line. This is a site about buying things. Buying things involves economics. Economics brings in policies about economics. That's politics. The idea that "politics is bad" is, I think, a bit crude. It's how discussion is carried ... | |
| DIY Speaker Kits, a good idea? Only two kinds of people in this world, those who assert that choices are binary, and those who assert they're non-binary. | |

| LessLoss "Stellar" Speaker Cables @foggyus91 "Douche canoes"? Um, because we are skeptical of over the top marketing blather? Clearly, you’re the credulous type. I have some land to sell you in Florida -- and your canoe. DM me and I’ll be glad to take your money. (No charge for ... | |

| LessLoss "Stellar" Speaker Cables I find the OP to be a bit hyperbolic. I tried to express that satirically and the moderator took down the post. For some reason, satire is off-limits. | |

| Is More Better? Unless you’re setup is in an aircraft hanger, that’s crazy overkill, but you do you. This too-clever-by-half comment is not that clever. It reflects a misunderstanding of why multiple subs are helpful. It’s about the room’s acoustics. It depend... |
