I have had only positive experiences with Ray tubes. Many here will say power cords will have a sonic impact if you have a resolving system. They were the last piece of the puzzle for me
When a power cord could obviously affect SQ
I have been a bit of a non-believer in power cords having magical effects on SQ but I have been discussing with Frank Ng a pair of PP 2A3 amps I am purchasing from TriodeLab. He is supplying a pair of his preferred cables and he points out that the 2A3s’ cathodes are fed directly from the mains transformer.
The amps (UPS willing) arrive tomorrow - this should be quite an experience - it has been quite a game finding great tubes.

@lanx0003 Remember, I have been somewhat sceptical. My thought was that the cathodes of tubes such as the 2A3 are less isolated from EMI picked up by the cable, hence a greater chance of SQ being affected than with components sitting behind smoothed and voltage regulated power supplies. @tuberist I looked up Ray tubes and they are now on my list, thanks. |
