AirTight ATM-300 - new Coupling Caps
Oh, Raul, you are chattering again, that monkey on your shoulder.  
AirTight ATM-300 - new Coupling Caps
Yes, changing the caps on anything is usually not a big deal, technically. I just had a tech replace all of the PS caps in 2 Joule Electra pre's I still have around. But change is change....I think I have the 15ohm LS3/5As on the 8 ohm taps, sound... 
AirTight ATM-300 - new Coupling Caps
Well, concededly, I haven't read this thread - I just can't stomach R's drivel (be careful...) - but I've owned your amp in a 2nd system for 30 yrs (LS3/5A 15 ohm based) and just can't believe you'd be tempted to chop around on the internals with ... 
What is your favorite Class D amp?

VPI Scout 2 vs. Luxman PD 441
Thanks, R, Yeah, I saw the 444 was the two-arm version after I poked around some more. Duh.... But - and here's my audio shallowness showing through again - that 444 sure is cool looking.... R, you know a lot, what do you think of the 441/444 pe... 
VPI Scout 2 vs. Luxman PD 441
Long dead thread, but here it goes...I'm a picker and just picked up a 441 with RF 64s on it, an RF MC 201 cartridge mounted. I have to take a a bit closer look on condition when it gets here, but it looks quite nice...whoever was the original own... 
Western Electric 12AX7 coming this summer.
Well, if WE ever manufactured a 12AX7, or variant, then I must have missed it. Blackburn refers to Mullard, not WE, so not sure what Charles W. is talking about here, apart from marketing. I run a red-tip Mullard 12AX7 f91 .c 1958 in my pre, and ...
