Anybody rolled tubes on their Aesthetix Rhea?


Just curious if anyone has tried replacing the factory tubes. Please share your thoughts. Thanks

Hi Eddie....weren't you experiencing some tube rush before? And I believe it was getting a bit worse??? Has it been remedied?
I have a Calypso. Purchased with mullard tubes from Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio. Have not done any tube rolling but will report on it when I do. I have about 150 hours on it right now. It is a fabulous sounding pre. Like clear water. Break-in made a huge difference. Started out with a lot of sibilence on female vocals, but mellowed out to perfection around 80-100 hours of use. Using it with AES Sixpac EL34 monoblocks.
Hey RWD....

Yes, was having a tube rush problem. Was getting really bad on the left channel. It's was using all Mullard's that seem to have caused it. Once Jared at Upscale Audio installed some Tungsram tubes the Rhea's noise floor dropped like a rock! It's extremely quiet now and the sound is still incredible!
