| Svetlana 6N1P in new ARC VS55 My buddy went to the Richardsons Electronics web site and got Amperex Bugle Boys for $23 each - the best readily available 6922/6DJ8. They totally transformed his Ah Tjoeb cd player. It was harsh and grainy with the stock JAN tubes, and now sounds... | |
| Svetlana 6N1P in new ARC VS55 The 6N1P is NOT a direct replacement for the 6DJ8/6922, although they are very similar. It has a different heater current requirement for one thing. I would definitely check with ARC first before trying this in your VT60. It would be worth the tro... | |
| OTL amps with Wilson Watt/Puppy 6s Wow, great idea - using an autoformer to match impedance. I would guess that without these things, OTL's on the WATT Puppies would have a frequency response curve that looked horrible. Thanks for the post! | |
| OTL amps with Wilson Watt/Puppy 6s I used to have 5.1's. Like I said, they dip to almost a short circuit in the critical midrange, and are VERY resistive in the bass. I've never understood why speaker designers do this kind of stuff. I played with OTLs before, but have moved on to ... | |
| OTL amps with Wilson Watt/Puppy 6s From everything I've read about OTL's, mating them with a low impedance load like the WATT/Puppy is a no no. I personally wouldn't do it. My WATTS go to LESS than 2 ohms in the critical midrange, even though they are a nominal 4 ohm speaker. You'l... |
