| best chinese tube amp under $1k? I'll second the Eastern Electric stuff as well. You could also check out Almarro 205s (Japanese), Sophia Baby, Xindak...I | |
| best chinese tube amp under $1k? I can vouch for Primaluna and Jolida being good sounding and well-built gear and I have used both with Tekton Lore and 4.5s. Nice match, must tube-roll to get best sound. | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Posted about M-Lore last night, don't know why it didn't show up, but the M-Lore got the Major Mojo Award. | |
| Tube amp decision - Thoughts I recently purchased a Primaluna Dialogue 1. A nice, feature laden, well built integrated that is fun. To get the warm full sound you must get out of the stock tubes. I fooled around with various tubes, a snap since this unit self-bias, plus accep... | |
| 12ax7 vs 5751 Second Andr, Joes Tube Lore gives a great summary. I have Sylvania 5751s Gold black plate that made a huge difference in one of my amps; but always trust your own ears. | |
| Question to 6L6 tube experts Jedinite24, as per articles by Jeff Day and others I would contact Jim McShane, inquire about the NOS 6L6 Russian tube 6N3C-E also known as a 6P3S-E, cost is around $65.00 per quad, very reliable and sound great! I have a quad in my Primaluna Dial... | |

| Budget Tube Integrated? + Tube related questions PS, like Sfar I also tube rolled a bit and can vouch that Russian mil spec tubes like his, or my 7189s seriously out-perform the stock tubes by a wide margin in every area. I also like the new Gold Lion EL 84s, also have Ei, they too, are better t... | |
| Budget Tube Integrated? + Tube related questions I am currently using a Jolida FX 10 in my office system (14X16) and it has been excellent with my Tekton 4.5 speakers (you should consider them for about $300.00, used,less). They blow away the Psbs and Wharfdale in the same price-range. I get a w... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Cwazz, not attacking your opinion of the speaker I am questioning your attack on Gpowered; and, if you don't want an attack on your opinion don't attack my statement on the quality of bass in my room. You don't live here so you couldn't possibly k... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Thanks to gpowered, zmanastronomy, sebrof, and this particular chat I first bought a pair of Tekton 4.5s, was impressed by them so I went and bought a used pair of the Tekton Lore. They are everything gpowered and Zmanastronomy, sebrof, said they ... | |
| If you had 6K to build a system with used gear? Leben CS300sX integrated, Tekton Lore speaker, ModwrightOppo 95 (used). | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Zman, wish I wasn't sleeping at the wheel when your Lore came up for sale. Since we're talking Tekton, can someone here help me out. I'm playing the 4.5 in desktop system with a Jolida FX10. I don't like the Electro Harmonix EL84s or their 12AX7s ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore I want to thank everyone who has participated in this chat since it turned me on to a high efficiency speaker with a benign impedance that sounds really good. I'm not, and have never been in to horn speakers; my wife and I come down on the slighty... | |
| Review: Tekton Design Pendragon Speaker Thanks for the thoughtful review. I'm wondering what my Cary SEI 300B or Golden Tube 300B, might do with these speakers. Heck, I just bought (still breaking in) Jolida FX10 as desktop/ small room integrated to go with Tekton 4.5s, maybe even they ... |
