| 5751 Triple Mica - really that good? No experience with 5751s, but Amperex Bugle Boys 1959-1962 LARGE ROUND HALO GETTER presented a huge 3D soundstage, nice clear top end and good detail. Very musical, which I'm not sure the 5751s are.Check archives for 5751. | |

| Bass leaves after amp warms up? It's too bad this thread ended on a sour note. These 10 pages are full of well intentioned good advice. So many concerned Agoners willing to do research such as checking specs, reading white papers and the like. With such a perplexing problem the ... | |
| References available on real life room "tuning"? Since it's a living room and you wouldn't want acoustic panels on the walls, hang a tapestry on the rear wall behind the listening position. Worked great for me.Plus, definitely drapes and rugs. | |
| Need advice: Turntable Output Voltage Have u looked to see if there is a MM/MC switch on the phono section of the Yamaha? It might be on the back panel. You are using a Moving Magnet cart. The switch should be set to MM. MC is for moving coil.Hope the problem is this simple. | |
