| EL34 differences in air & stage depth? Gentlemen, Albert & Lloyd, - A sincere, "Thank You" for your input. First. I'm encouraged that the Shuguang tubes can be bettered! I've read many good things about NOS Mullards (sonics and longevity) and did understand the GoldLion KT77s refer... | |
| HiFi tuning fuses, some benefits help Jwong - Thanks for your reply. My response, probably a bit of an over-reaction, was not directed at your comments specifically. I have to say I was a bit surprised they made a difference in my system but that also applies to changing out interconn... | |
| HiFi tuning fuses, some benefits help Compared to the cost of so many other "audiophile" tweaks, $30 is pretty inexpensive and worth an experiment if nothing more. I tried the HiFi Tuning Fuse in my relatively low cost/entry level system. It made a difference in the JoLida 502B I was ... | |
| Music or Lyrics? If you are asking me to choose one over the other - it would be music vs lyrics - for sure. In general, I prefer instrumentals to songs, given the option. To my mind, words tend to anchor the song. Music without words....that's something magical. | |
| What music do you want to play really loud? Mountain "Missippi Queen"MC5 | |
| Best Outer Sleeves for LPs Hey Kurt_tank - happy someone picked up on my lame attempt at humor! | |
| Best Outer Sleeves for LPs ...I vote for "cubits" as a base-line unit of measure. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Hall & Oates - "Abandoned Luncheonette"....the whole thing but then, 'Everytime I Look at You' (the last track). F'ing A! can these cats sing!!! ("Baby it's goodbye!"). Wow. 36 year old vinyl. Amen to that. | |
| The Entire Band Gets Writing Credit Reading a book now, "According to the Rolling Stones". The perception that Jagger/Richards had a lock on songwriting credits is certainly warranted and rooted in their history. None the less, as per Ronnie Wood, with a lot of perserverance and dip... | |
| Anyone Tried TUNG-SOL EL34 REISSUES? Drrsutliff - Looking to upgrade some stock Chinese EL 34s, myself. Are you still using the SED "Winged Cs"? Improvements to air and soundstage are what I'm mainly looking for. Thanks in advance for your reply. | |

| Need help finding cause of hum Al, Thanks. I will look into shorting plugs. Dan, Hope you figure out what is going on with your system. In my case, the hum is there with the input on amp switched to CDP. I also hear it with the input at position 2 which is not occupied by any s... | |
| Need help finding cause of hum Al - Thanks for your reply. A lot to digest, but I'm thinking a ground loop isn't the cause. Wouldn't that cause hum in both channels? and at a higher volume? ALSO - I can hear the hum with only amp and speakers connected - no sources connected to... | |
| HELP - I Weird Hum or FeedBack Problem Having hum issues myself - but minor, I think, compared to yours. Are you running any kind of ground from the TT? Have you checked this ground connection?...also the effects of disconnecting it? | |
| Best current EL34 tubes I own a hybrid that right now has stock Chinese EL34s. I would like to upgrade. To that end, I found this post but I'd like to ask about the intent of Mrtennis 5-13-08 post. Not trying to be a provocateur but is that sarcasm? irony? The qualities ... |
