Amir,Taking note that the DC condition is present when you say the power is cleanest yet Pure Power does not help leads one to want to investigate a high current DC blocker BEFORE the PP. Its possible that heavy DC could effect the PP in some way. Mo...

I built my "Ultimate Turntable" and did the long bearing approach. It is 8" long and .750" diameter. I have had a love hate relationship with the long bearing. While it is VERY stable it is extremely difficult to setup. The long length absolutely...

I'm sure it will purrrr. You are using the top of the heap tubes here. No bad apples here, just different aroma.the VT25 and 316a are the cleanest, nicest sound I know of. I have a bunch too. Fun Fun FunLife is good! ...

…they say: “The 4Volt technique gives best ratio between diameter and length of the filaments”. It does not sound very credible to me, in fact is sound more like marketing BS.
This is true. It co...

I prefer the 2A3C. A single plate unit to the Bi-Plate ones.RCA NOS have a balanced sound too.Sofia are TJ...

Go for a split bobbin unit for each tube. I would say that you will be very pleased when you dedicate a trans to the tube you choose. Less RF and strange coupling effects.I didn't notice the implementation earlier but can easily see some issues creep...

Romy if you feel that you are not loading the tubes enough put a 16ohm power resistor in parallel w the S2. this will cut the load line in half. It should be less wiry and stronger more weighty sound. Obviously you might experiment w values to find t...

FWIW I have found that best results are from dedicated transformers for each filiament. I would not even think of using a multiple secondary trans for DHT's.I use a split bobbin type only.The split bobbin gives very poof HF coupling in audio but is ...

So I am aasuming that you are referring the very low level capability of your driver or amps? The subtle nuances?What other drivers did you find did well beside the Vitavox. I always felt that most comperssion drivers are a little tightand need to...
|
|
Honestly there is not enough info here to make a usefull recommendation. If the drivers are going to be used from the 95hz crossover point up then you might not even have to worry about it if the Fs is well below that. I would not do it anyway since ...
|
|
The first thing that comes to mind is what is the range that the drivers will cover and what is the Fs of the drivers.
Another thing to consider is the loading type on the bass units you have.
I take it that they are sealed ? If so I would not con...

yes unfortunately smoking shortens the life of rubber in suspensions. How much is too much? I don't know that but it does have a life shortening effect. I was looking over your post and saw you mentioned that pops and surface noise was higher.That is...

RomyHaving worked in a high end shop and doing lots of carts I will lend my experiences.Suspensions either harden or soften. When they soften you will notice that your VTA starts to go, you have to lift the rear of the cart and they go quite rapidly....

Gosh I would have thought that those tube space heaters would be welcome in that frigid Boston climate.It was 107 here 2 weeks ago. I leave most of my system on 24-7, you should have seen my August electric bill.FWIW I rarely have to use the he...

We now call those modeling lamps in our big stobes. I think that the analogy is even better considering your intentions.I personally feel strongly that high sensitivity is the correct path and that small ported woofers in a MTM box will fall short of...

In reading this thread I am compelled to ask the simple question about the rest of the room. In my experience moving furniture and room treatments also make a huge impact and must certainly inffluence the perfect lcation for any room as specifically ...

dream big. Yeah it is wishfull thinking about a wavelab inspired player but heck if we don't have dreams them what do we have to look forward to. I was very excited about a PC based server at first. After 4 or so weeks of trying to figure it al...

Well we know that Steinberg who created Wavelab is also behind ASIO. The Ottachan ASIO notes state that Wavelab was the sonic standard for compiling the plugin. It is possible to get very close to the Wavelab sonic standard with some players an...
