| Does it make sense to use 6k$ Nos tube with 5K$ tube amplifier? shkong78, I see, I didn't get this part. I thought your question was more general - is it worth spending $6k on those tubes ?I have no experience but I read that there was no real substitute for those original tubes.

| Who makes great active preamps ? Tube or solid state or hybrid. No, not always, but it will cost in any case. | |
| Does it make sense to use 6k$ Nos tube with 5K$ tube amplifier?

| ZL Technologies Cables from Korea, from the lead designer of Allnic Audio Labs. Overpriced, I heard. | |
| Phono preamp suggestions I like Sutherland. The least expensive is $900 new. I don't know about "dramatically" and it can be subjective but it should be significantly better. Should match well with Pass too. Good cables and power cord are important, as always. | |
| Who makes great active preamps ? Tube or solid state or hybrid. Big performance. Big money usually follows. | |

| Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated. Believe it or not, I have Purist Aquila cord, designed for digital, on PS Audio regenerator and it works real good there. And the previous owner used it with his Studer A810 open reel deck with great success ! Interesting cord, I would say. | |

| Do you have any concern for the environment when keeping your equipment 24/7 ? Yeah, sealed environment for Elizabeth. | |
| How often do you have to service your Studer or Otari deck ? Home not pro environment. Ralph, thank you, but I think I'll go with Studer A810 or A807 or Otari when the time is right. Do Studers actually record and sound better than Otari 5050 ? Otari also usually have quarter track reproduction head, this may or may not be helpful i... | |
| Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated. Yes, I am aware of the Ypsilon, and it is definitely one more top brand to consider. However, I prefer this deep powerful slightly on the dark side of neutral sophisticated and dynamic sound created by Flemming Rasmussen. Besides, Ypsilon Phaethon... | |
| Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated. fsmithjack, thank you, I appreciate your offer. Unfortunately, I am not quite financially prepared for the Gryphon at the moment. I also consider used Gryphon separates for the future, even if 20 years old ones. Now that would be incredible. I am ... | |
