| Preamp Deal of the Century Problem solved. My Tung-Sols VT-231 were the cause of all that noise. Back to stock tubes and got pure silence. Thanks to all of you who tryed to help. Best, Lisbon. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks for answering. I am turning on the system exactly as I always did. CD on. Preamp on. Power amp on. The power amp takes about ten seconds to go AND after that it stays automatically muted for security reasons. Nice. Then I unmute the power a... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Hi to allLong time has passed since ny last post. Why? Beacuse, ever since I got my Supratek (Chardonnay), I stopped worrying with audio improvement. Yes, it is that good! The problem now is that every time I switch on the preamp extremely loud no... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Supratek ownwers, please take a look at this thread: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1100096116&read&3&4&Thanks. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century JazzdudeTalked to Mick a couple of weeks ago and yes, you can use a learning universal remote. I think I'll do that. The TV plastic remote is looks ugly and cheap. Anyone aware of a learning universal remote with a minimalist (just a few buttons) ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Hi again guysAcording to the previous messages it seems that the 6F6G influences bass more than everything else. It gets deeper and stronger - correct? Well, I really do not need MORE bass. But TIGHTER bass would be much apreciated. Can you be a m... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thank you Eccletique for sharing some more tecnhnical information with us. I do feel safer now and I will try a pair 6F6G in my Chardonnay. For those who already tried the 6F6G I would like to know a bit more as for sound. How do they compare with... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Fiddler has a point. Did some research on 6F6G and also found nothing saying that these could replace the 5881/KT-66/(...). Also the supratek "manual" does not mention the 6F6G as a possible substitute for the stock tubes (while other types are re... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century First, the Tung-Sols: I am not an expert (far from that) on NOS tubes. Started with the stock tubes, then the Sylvanias VT-231 and now (since today!) the Tung-Sols Round Plates. The Sylvanias were airy (nice) but sounded lean and clinical in my Ch... | |
| Corroded tube pins - need help I am using scotch-brite instead of sand paper. But the metal plate is turning a bit yellow. I guess I am loosing the metal plate, actually - am I? Or should I use something else after the scotch-brite? | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Hi guysI am getting VERY curious with this 6F6g thing. I am willing to try a pair in my Chardonnay. But what about the brands? Any suggestion? Tung-Sol, Ken-Rad, Sylvania... Best,Lisbon | |
| Jadis Defy 7: need advice So how do I know if it's the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th version? Which are the recognizable signs for each one of these versions?Thank you. | |
| Proac 3.8 or Sonus Faber Cremona Caro .ptOuvi ambas na Delmax. Com amplificação krell. As Proac, como seria de esperar, soaram um pouco clínicas por comparação com as Cremona. Tecnicamente, nada a apontar. Apenas se revelaram (as Proac) menos capazes de envolver o ouvinte. São, n... | |
| Supratek tuning Ok. I have the chance to try (to bid on) a pair of new in box Sylvanias VT-231. Are you aware of the fair price for these? | |
| Supratek tuning Yes, same thing within my system: more or less gain; more or less freedom with the volume knob. That's it. Nevertheless, Mick states that tuning the gain switches has sonic effects and I suppose this might happen to other Supratek owners, with oth... |
