| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles - absolutely. my system has went from a nice marantz receiver and oppo to now the LM502 and soon enough a SET phono. Surely more of a pure audio angle approach has been taken and I'm very happy, and am appreciative of the input, encourag... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 I have furthermore sold my designated digital playback/DAC component, my oppo 105, and have replaced it with the LM502ca DAC.. Rolled the 12AU7’s to NOS mullard C4003’s right out of the gate. Have had the DAC for a few days now and the sound is im... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 KR 300B’s have arrived. They look nice and have surely a durable and rugged feel to them as I’ve read the czech valves should.Sound impressions (compared to my prior Full Music 300B/n)-Certainly more extended into the lower frequencies beyond what... | |
| Difference between mesh vs. solid plate 300B? I’m sitting here and realize my current factory 300B’s are mesh plates lol. Full Music 300 B/n mesh plates. Sooo. The EML meshes may still be different? Or should I assume that this would mean that I can certainly run them if I desired? I only see... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 charles-just asked jac. will get back with the response on the matter! | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Almarg-there you are haha. Everything you said is from what I've also concluded, spot on. The functionality you describe keeps the 300b's from being pushed to their limits, further eliminating distortion and other things that may inhibit the sign... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles-spoke to jac from EML. He confirmed that before running 300B XLS or Mesh, that I need to confirm that my amp can supply 1.4 amps heater. This is what I was referring too I a few posts about, regarding them not being a direct plug and play... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles-I understand. If the 300 were being used as an output tube, then there might be a benefit of the XLS, but as a driver, likely not so. | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 charles-i am looking at a pair of EML XLS, or a pair of KR, not XLS. Am i going to want to stick with an XLS tube for its benefits? The KR is available to me at a much lower price vs the EML. Around half the price. You're two cents? ;) | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 lol. It's rather noisey and aggressive, generally more up tempo. A current act that could be labeled as so, would be Nails. As an example if you're really curious. | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles-After further reading, I think I'd like to stay with a Czech made tube like a KR or EML. Hand made, better materials and glass from what I understand. Taka's and Elrogs are over what im looking to spend otherwise of course, I know they are... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Paul-email me. The PM function on this site is odd. j.kull001@gmail.com. Thanks | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Pdreher-I am definitely considering you KR’s. they are a nice looking tube indeed. And I read they are constructed well. These are 300B , or the 300B XLS? I am looking to find your PM to re read it but do not see anywhere to do that on here. Maybe... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Migueca-Congrats on the 219ia. Great amp indeed. I am going to make one recommendation of grabbing a NOS pair of 12AX7's. Not too costly and yields a large benefit. I bought a pair of NOS matched code mullards, a pair of NOS long black plate RCA's... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Have to say. I’m all over with what 300B’s to go for. Just for the record, my amp is currently loaded with TJ Full Music 300B/n’s. So I want to know that I am getting a tube that will give me worthwhile improvement OVER those. My current research ... |
