| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Hi, Dracule1, Glad it all works out for you. I am going through a long system upgrade/transit. After I am settled, I will try Elrog again. Cheers. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Hi, Dracule1, we pm'ed about rectifier at another forum (I was not able to registered for the same user name). Anyhow, 5z4gy -> Cossor 53KU / WE422a -> WE274A/B & Takatsuki 274B. I am now using Takatsuki 274B and like it. No chance to co... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Hi, Dracule1,I am glad it works out for you. I totally understand your absence. :pElrogs produce the lowest sound floor on Lampi compared to other tubes. And thus the details and transparency. Like I said, you don't even have to a/b to hear the di... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Hello, Dracule1, have you solved the issue? What is your impression of the sound? I am eager to know, since I hope that they don't alter the tube too much for longer use, at the cost of sound. Like I said, I really miss them on my Lampi. :) | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,Sorry for the bad news. Elrogs are supposed to be great even without breaking in. And their sound signature doesn't change much during burnt-in process. I am not sure if Elrog change the formula a little bit and cause the difference. WYAN | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes I was courageous enough to put the Takatsuki 300B on Lampi briefly. Well, the difference from Psvane WE101D 1:1 replica was very subtle if any. I guess I am really missing Elrog 300B's. They were the most resolving tubes on Lampizator.Maybe after ... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Similar experience here. Good right out of box. :) | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Elrog 300B's were dead quite on my Lampizator big 7. I still missed their sound very much! Sigh.I do believe that Elrog and Takatsuki are the best current production 300B's. Takatsuki 300B's on Frankensteins and Voxativ reproduce the best treble t... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1, Elrog is the best tubes that I heard on Lampizator. I don't even need to A/B with Psvane 101D 1:1 replica to know it is way better. Psvane has been a great performance tube and was my reference before. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes According to what I read on tube asylum, Elrog is expected to fix the failure issue by now. Any news on that? Charles, I keep J2 only because I occasionally build loudspeakers and I need J2 to tweek and burn in some components. It is a very good S... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Charles, I still keep J2 but I do feel that Frankenstein is a better amp driving Voxativ. It is significantly more responsive to source component change than J2. Dracule1, thanks. I suppose that might be the cause then. I am also aware of Elorg/La... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes I bought my Takatsuki pair from pricejapan. Their price after fees is actually the same as the price + fees quoted from amtrans. However, amtrans won't accept paypal payment and I really don't want to wait in the banks to wire transfer and thus I ... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Alexzzz, thanks. :) | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Some post back, there was suggestion of modding the Frankenstein monos by adding about 200ohm of resistance somewhere. Instead of modding the amp, is it possible to simply make a tube converter/adapter that wire a resistor to the pin of anode (or ... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes One of my Elrog 300B's also died on Lampizator Big 7 recently. Fortunately, they were still within warranty and I returned them for a refund. I surely hope that Elrog could sort out the issue. They were sounding fantastic. |
