| Putting vintage tubes in the power supply of pre Power supply tubes do not affect the sound IMO May I ask on how you formed this opinion?The voltage in the power supply is what makes the "sound" that you hear, technically speaking. Any change there affects everything because it dictates how the ... | |

| Thorens 124 compared to new best tt Hi Jean,Nice summary. Yep, if you build the TD 124 today, I am sure that the cost per unit retail will be prohibitive. Some people does not understand that, instead they dismiss the table because it was built many years ago. Some people make comme... | |

For other stuff, like ceramic ball upgrade/bronze thrust plate etc, just type "Thorens" under search and should list them.If you have an old idler wheel, since your 124 is not operational ye... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century There you go, it is settled. Let the GZ33 frenzy begin!No problem here. Besides, my all stock Supratek Chenin is in the corner of my listening room collecting dust for almost 10 months now and counting. I was hoping a little bit that it becomes a ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century By the way, the Radio Museum site lists the current draw of the GZ33 as 2.8 amps, same as the GZ37Hmmmm......different on mine. I thought the 5U4 is the same as a GZ33, current draw-wise, and the GZ37 is 200 mA less.GZ37GZ33regards | |
