| More on the VR4seIII Well, Map1, you're jumping right in, huh? Most folks who own the First Sound love it and swear by it. I hope you feel the same once you've heard it. Congratulations. Which VAC are you thinking about? | |
| Amperex PQ 6922 vs Amperex PQ 7308 Nhtran, thank you! I've been going nuts trying to figure out the different tubes and colors and labeling. | |
| Review: Denon DVD - 3910 CD Player Pete, I agree wholeheartedly with your impressions of the APL Denon3910 and especially of the transparency the player displays. I recently replaced my interconnects, and the soundstage and musical truthfulness is stunning. Frankly, I didn't know h... | |
| Amperex PQ 6922 vs Amperex PQ 7308 Thanks, Ed. That was my thinking, too. Therefore, I am assuming when Joe's Tube Lore is talking about Amperex 7308 with shield, he is discussing PQ tubes whether or not he specifically mentions PQ.Ed, if 7308 are selected 6922, then what was does ... | |
| Amperex PQ 6922 vs Amperex PQ 7308 Dogpile, if you read Ed_sawyer's post above my last post he writes about a third 7308 tube with a shield and no PQ. I am familiar with the PQ label in the heart shaped shield. I'm intrigued by the 7308 with shield and no PQ. | |
| More on the VR4seIII Yes, I guess so. | |
| Amperex PQ 6922 vs Amperex PQ 7308 So, Ed, explain the difference between the "shield" and the "PQ". I've seen PQ tubes, but I don't know what to look for with the "shield" imprinted tubes. | |
| A "Unique" Voice... Kind of an obvious choice, but Neil Young's voice has always been in the unique "love him or hate him" category. I love him. Plenty of folks I know can't stand him.Axle Rose has a voice I can only take for one song or so.Slappy, Mel Torme, "The Ve... | |

| More on the VR4seIII I know one room used VAC Phi 220 monos(to drive the VR11), and another used the Vac Phi Beta integrated. $10,000 might buy you a used VAC Phi 110/110 and a used First Sound Presence Deluxe II. These work great with the VR4 GenIII HSE...that's what... | |
| tube upgrade for first sound Artg are you referring to Amperex 6922 Pinch Waists? I've been using Amperex 6922 PQ White Label USA...but halo getter...not Pinch Waists. I love these tubes in the First Sound. If the Pinch Waists are 200% better ('cuz that's how much more they c... | |
| Amperex PQ 6922 vs Amperex PQ 7308 Nhtran, do you think Joe's mention of the "shield" in his description of the Amperex 7308 refers the a "PQ" shield? Did the regular Amperex 7308 you owned have a shield printed on the tube? | |
| Amperex PQ 6922 vs Amperex PQ 7308 Joe's Tube Lore mentions Amperex 7308, but not "PQ" specifically, although Joe mentions "shield" in his description of the 7308, which sounds to me like the "PQ" shield printed on the tube. It's my understanding that Amperex 7308 PQ are the only v... | |
| Tube Research GT-100, GT-200, Lamm 1.2 for 4 ohm Smilin, the VAC amps have separate speaker taps for 8 ohm and 4 ohm loads. Transparent and dynamic. Check 'em out. | |
| Tube Research GT-100, GT-200, Lamm 1.2 for 4 ohm Drop a dime and buy VAC Phi 220 monos. You'll not look back.Or...even better perhaps...buy a VAC Phi Beta integrated amplifier. All the benefits of the top-of-the-line VAC products rolled into one sexy beast. |
