| How make my Ayre system "warmer"? Tubes don't add distortion until they are driven to distortion. Then they produce even-order harmonics rather than the odd-order harmonics that SS devices produce when over-driven. I personally own a tubed CDP, tubed power amps, and still enjoy ve... | |
| Can a fuse affect sound quality in my Classe Amps He probably doesn't think that improving the voltage/current through the PS(or fuse) can positively affect the presentation of an amplifier. Most don't recognize that the power supply IS indeed directly in the "signal path" of the power amp. Every... | |
| Can a fuse affect sound quality in my Classe Amps Boy am I glad too! That would be another couple Hi-Fi Tuning fuses I'd HAVE to buy. | |
| A good power conditionner with tube amps ? Mapman- Your power amp will continue to produce sound until the power supply filter caps discharge fully. I've had excellent results with my Audio Magic Stealth XXX, Cary SLM-100s(tubed mains) and Hafler TransNova 9505(SS woofer amp). | |
| Cary Audio...What do you have ? A pair of SLM-100s, NOS 40's TungSol JAN CTL/6SN7GT, round plate(drivers), NOS 40's Sylvania JAN CHS/6SN7W, tall bottle(phase splitters), Winged 'C' 6550s(from Kevin- St Petersburg plant), Vampire 5 way binding posts, WBT RCAs, Wonder Wired/Solder... | |
| Another Cable Burn-in Question Thanks for the confirmation, and HAPPY LISTENING!! | |
| Another Cable Burn-in Question Exactly as I stated earlier(voltage actually) Mr. Z, and absolutely correct! | |
| Another Cable Burn-in Question It's kind of comical: The originator of this thread stated that he'd resolved the issue, some 14 posts ago! =8^) | |
| Can a fuse affect sound quality in my Classe Amps Good plan!! Still- Before you install any expensive fuses: Be certain everything's Kosher, and the amps aren't blowing the cheapies. | |
| Crossover upgrade capacitor question BTW- Michael Percy will match his products to 1%(or closer) for you, which will keep your crossover points equal. Most high-end caps are manufactured with a(typically) 5% tolerance(or better) to start with. (http://www.percyaudio.com/Catalog.pdf) | |
| What is the best dielectric? Yes- A vacuum is the best. BUT- Containing vacuums and gases is tricky/expensive, and therefore not often practical (http://www.taralabs.com/images/31479_eprint.pdf). Some manufacturers create a foam of a plastic and air which does work well. Tefl... | |
| anyone compared the hydra vs aR6 vs magic stealth I own the Stealth XXX, and there is NO current limiting or voltage lag with the unit, RE: My two main monoblocks (tubed/110wpc) and woofer amp(SS/255wpc). I've been very satisfied with it's performance/the lack of background grunge resulting from ... | |
| Can a fuse affect sound quality in my Classe Amps BY ALL MEANS: Find out why the fuses blew. The subject have been discussed/debated a couple times before. There are those that have not tried the high grade fuses, but feel they MUST share their unfounded/untested opinions anyway. Ignore them. THE... | |
| Tweaks when building a listening room? If you are considering a dedicated circuit: Use(as least) two runs(keep 12" separation between the two) of 10-2 Romex(equiv of 4Ga), and(minimum) hospital grade outlets(ie:http://cgi.ebay.com/Leviton-Ivory-HOSPITAL-Receptacle-Outlet-20A-8300-I_W0Q... | |
