| Tekton Double Impacts Dj,I'll echo what Corelli and lancelock said as my room is only about 13.5'x17.5'. The SE's/DI's sound great at low or high volume levels and will work in any sized room they can physically fit into. Brian,Thanks to you ordering the Motherlode I w... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts It is interesting Charles. I believe that both of us utilizing 300B's and having similar DAC's along with speakers that are very transparent has given us very similar sounds. It will be interesting to hear what the EML 300B's sound like in my syst... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I’m not daring enough to upgrade the caps myself Corelli, I’ll leave that to Aric. He put the same caps in the Motherlode preamp he made for Brian. You’re more than welcome to stop by should you ever be on this side of the state......just bring so... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thanks Charles, your impressions are quite valuable to me as it was your systems sound that I was trying to emulate. While none of our components are the same the overall sound signature is very similar......which makes me very happy. I'm using th... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Corelli, yes, the Aric gear is all I could have hoped for.....and more. Glad to hear I was helpful in you coming to your decision on the DI's. They really are amazing speakers.I had a great time listening to some great music with Charles. He seeme... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts While I've been away from the site for a while it's great to see how civil, impartial and informative this thread has stayed. While I've been reveling in the sound my SE's with Aric Audio's Linestage and 300B amp is providing I enjoy reading other... | |
| Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts? Yes, five year warranty, for real. I had to revisit their site to make sure I had it right. | |
| Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts? Thanks Charles. The WE re-issue tubes are very intriguing to me. The tubes will be built in their brand new, state of the art tube production facility yet using their "secret sauce " metallurgy from the 1930's. They won't be cheap at $1299/matched... | |
| Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts? All this 300B tube talk has me wanting to try another pair. I'm currently using the Sophia Royal Princess 300B and am quite happy with them but I've not had any others to compare to. I'm currently on a waiting list for Western Electrics 80th anniv... | |
| Duelund DCA16GA My Duelund DCA16GA should arrive later this week and if it sounds better than the WE 10ga ( and I don't doubt it does) I'll be in heaven. I'm also using the Neotech connectors......easy to install and sound great. Thanks to the likes of Bill and J... | |
| Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp Based on the pics of the Motherlode I've seen its a beauty. I don't know enough about the workings of all those impressive looking capacitors and such inside of the units to really appreciate what Aric has created here, but if it sounds better tha... | |
| Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp After having spent the last couple of months with Aric's linestage and 300B SET I couldn't be happier. My system sounds better than I ever thought possible. Tone, speed, dynamics, imaging, soundstaging......it's all there in spades. Superlatives d... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thankfully Aric already had a solution built into my amp......a gain control. I had forgotten about it. Just by turning the gain down has given much more volume control and range. I'm listening comfortably at 11 o'clock right now. Good deal! | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Lol Aric, see how much I trust you by giving you free reign on designing my gear? Little did I know I had a tube regulated power supply. Brian still hit the Motherlode with that name though! 😃All of the discussion on gain might make me gain some ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Charles,I'll have you look at it soon. I'm hoping to have the kitchen back together this weekend after having to rip drywall out to repair plumbing ( being under the weather today didn't help) I'll finally be ready to have you over for a listen an... |
