| Tube Amp Hum I have tried cheater plugs, different circuits, moving the amp to a slightly different location, reversing the input tubes and the hum is still there. | |
| What is the Wavelength Audio house sound? Wavelength house sound- Musical, sweet, tonally perfect. Could even be described as delicate in some ways. Although the bass with Cosecant is excellent. I have owned two pieces from Wavelnegth and both are very nice and easy to listen to, and quit... | |

| Tube Amp Hum Heres a theory...I have Herbies Audio Lab isolation feet, which have a good reputation and I am pleased with them. But...Is is possible that because they are squishy material, the transformer hum noise is being trapped inside the amp and coming th... | |
| Tube Amp Hum My refrigerator? Definately not....The system is on a completely dedicated circuit, there is no cable system on this circuit whatsoever. It is not a ground loop. Newbee, I will try the tube reversal as you mentioned. Sounds like an idea. | |
| Tube Amp Hum Correction now that both my wife and I listened for it. It seems louder out of the left channel than the right, and....It is faintly audible from the listening area, not just at the speaker. I gotta tell ya, if there is way to resolve this noise I... | |
| Tube Amp Hum Thanks Newbee...Yes it is when I am at the speaker only that I can hear it, not from the listening position which is only about 8 or 9 feet away. I moved my ICs around a bit and there was no effect whatsoever, and they are shielded (97% according ... | |
| VTL 5.5 questions Yes, the phonostage is available for the 2.5 as well...You bring up a good point though about not being able to sell separately. I asked my dealer how many they sell of each, IE with and without phono, and they said it is about 50/50. For me getti... | |
| VTL ST-85 vs. VTL ST-150 or rather EL34 vs 6550 I agree..There are as many bad dealers out there as there is bad advice. I am lucky to have found the dealer I did, and their loaner policy was extremely flexible, and they were patient. Thats all one can really ask. I personally look back and sti... | |
| Has iTunes, etc. impacted your listening habits? Wavelength Audio Cosecant owner and it has forever changed the way I listen to my collection...And it sounds better than the G08 I auditioned next to it for two full weeks-in every single way. It made me a believer it computer audio and tubes. I w... | |
| VTL 5.5 questions To actually answer the question at hand here....Yes, it would be a fairly significant upgrade. More tubes, upgraded caps, two power supplies (dual mono design, balanced outputs. Also has phase control, a useless feature for me personally, but an a... | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors I saw and heard the Mira Monitor, very nice. But I can't for get past that they just seem like they were designed for a HT application, and I don't like the stands. They sound nice though, but to me you can do better for the $$. | |
| VTL ST-85 vs. VTL ST-150 or rather EL34 vs 6550 I just wish the dealers I visited over the years introduced me to tubes much earlier. I spent so much time looking for SS that sounded like this system that I feel like I wasted time. | |
| Amazingly Close to Krell Sound If Krell did ever make a tube amp, I am sure they would still find a way to make the sibilance cut your eyeballs out when you listened. | |
| VTL ST-85 vs. VTL ST-150 or rather EL34 vs 6550 I had a Rotel a few years back, same one I think. never looked back after I heard a krell amp next to the Rotel..Then I hearxd VTl and it put the krell to shame. Never been so satisfied with my audio system as I am now. Rotel and Krell are in my p... |
