Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Wow, makes a bigger difference then the caps!I'll have to order some, thanks.Sorry for going off topic but, did you change the resistors in your amps to run less voltage and if so did it change the sound?Best,Joe  
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Hi Charles,What size Red fuses did you use for the Franks?Joe 
Warm sounding power cord for for CD player to suppress digital glare on vocals.
A Sablon Audio Robusto PC will definitely do the trick. It's an older cord that you can pick up for little money. It's not as detailed and open as newer cords but the tone is beautiful. 
VPI Cartridge People: What next?
I have a VPI Classic 3 with a 3D arm. I used to run a Dyna xx2 mk.2 which was a nice balanced cartridge.Then I switched to a Lyra Kleos Sl and the Kleos is so much better in all areas. Faster, more dynamic, more open, bigger soundstage, with nice ... 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Charles, unfortunately one of my replacement Elrog tubes failed also. George is going to replace them once he gets a suitable pair in.  I'll be waiting for your opinion on the resistor replacement ,hopefully the sound won't be degraded. If it make...

Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Hi Dmarkov,I have my Taks almost 2 years. They are well broken in and the Elrogs had less then 100 hrs. They are both excellent tubes. The Elrogs give me a little more body to instruments, which I like.

Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Dracula1, To be clear the first set didn't fail. George took them back for a new set that better matched my Frank's higher voltages. George is great to work with and he stands behind his tubes!Here is his website: tubesusa.com 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Well after comparing the Elrogs to the Taks I can say the Elrogs are the better sounding tubes with my Franks. They have wonderful weight and fullness of tone without losing detail and transparency. They are very musical, with piano in the lower ... 
High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps
Grannyring, I think he purchased Omega Alnico monitors. The thread is on Audiocircle. 
Calling all Supratek owners.....
I have a Sauvignon and the toggle on mine is an A/V pass thru.I changed my volume control to a Dact. You get a nice improvement in openness but, you lose the remote control. My preamp is highly modded so don't really know how much it was the Dact.... 
Zu Definition 4 height?
With the powered subs they should be at least 1.5 in. off the floor.Glad it worked out for you.
