| Best caps for updating my VTL 225 mono's ? Marty, as always, beat me to the punch. When it comes to value for money, go with the surplus Russian military PIO caps.I first found out about these several years ago from my buddy, who happens to be that anonymous author of the widely quoted Cap... | |
| Best caps for updating my VTL 225 mono's ? Rodman99999, "Jensen copper foils are inexpensive."God bless you. I wish a lot of us could also say those prices are inexpensive. | |
| Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic Tbg, it's sad to see a person write so many words, yet not say anything. Just sheer BS. No matter how much you twist and try to spin things, some will not forget.BTW, no interest, financial or otherwise, in gold or ANY cable product. | |
| Anyone compare Jadis JA 30 amps with JA 80s? Echoing Russ' post, I have two Jadis integrateds which are somewhat analogous, the DA30 and DA60. As he said, the difference in power is noticeable. And, I would put a whole lot of additional emphasis on that statement. | |
| Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic Tbg, "Trelja, I will let others decide whether there was any ethical issue in my wanting to do a review on these speakers but the importer's unwillingness to put a pair out for review and my buying them after being very impressed with them at the ... | |
| Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic Tbg, "Give me examples of what you mean by mine with some documentation rather than snide remarks."I'd say that Tidal speaker review you dangled out there post RMAF2009 was enough to score a ZERO in a class or have one's career taken away from the... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Tbg, I laughed out loud at your post on the reasons behind your firing. Thanks for that!On the one hand, you warn people about taking reviewers seriously. While on the other, even in admitting to being relieved at your being thrown out, give the i... | |
| Need Expert Opinions On An Old System I'd guess the difference you hear is the difference in the rooms. Works through that and a lot of your complaint will likely diminish.Also, I'd take a turn at doing away with the power conditioner, and plug things directly into the wall or a decen... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? The slobs like me use Leviton electrical products, the snobs buy Levitron. By the way, it is quite difficult to buy any decent cheater plug for below $30k and there are many above $100k. | |
| Shuguang black treasure 2a3-z... I've tried Sovtek and EH 2A3 tubes in the past, and both were incredibly disappointing, sounding just as you had described.I would expect the Black Treasure tubes to improve a whole lot from what you heard after 30 minutes. Usually, a tube really ... | |
| dual volume controls? Dual volume controls have nothing to do with a dual mono design.Agree that it usually (unless the stops are detented, as you cannot "fine tune" nearly as much) offers a better form of balance control. | |
| The Hub: History of Dynaco part 1 Yet again, another stellar thread. Thank you!!!David Hafler may have been Bud Fried's best friend. Bud took David's passing especially hard. And, like so many other real life relationships, when one of them is taken from us, the second goes not lo... | |
| "Crack" sound in left speaker tube amp Agree that it very well might be a tube. Swapping tubes will tell you in very quick manner.However, if you find out that isn't the problem, another possibility is that it's actually the tube socket. I've seen this many times. Today's tube sockets ... | |
| Tube failure -- what would happen in worst case? As has been said, a fire is the worst thing that can happen.Apart from that, I've seen amps take a transformer (power or output) out. That's a repair you don't want to get into. | |
| Inactive audio members that you miss Nostalgia ain't what it used to be...Maybe I'm getting old, but I really miss those guys. The discussion used to be a lot more interesting, in-depth, and lively back then. Or, maybe it's just me? I have a personal affection for many of the others ... |
