| Wilsons new flagship @cleeds @ghdprentice Many moons ago my dad had our 1955 green and white Chevy station wagon painted all white by Earl. A good while later I was tasked with washing it. I sprayed the hose on the car and did not understand what was happening, inst... | |
| Qobuz still messed up @cleeds Go into your router and assign your streamer a fixed IP address. Thanks for the suggestion, I will try it tonight. | |
| Qobuz still messed up @gumbedamit When i start the app, it always plays on my phone until i select my streamer. I have the same issue. No big deal to switch from the phone to my streamer, but would rather just have the streamer as the default vs my phone. Anyone... | |
| Can I jumper across amp speaker outs to a 2nd amp's spkr outs? Wasn't @devinplombier explanation clear enough for you or do have learning difficulties or maybe your brain has turned to mush. What a particularly rude comment. | |
| Do vintage output power tubes - Mullard, Amperex, Telefunken etc - ever red-plate ? Many moons ago I purchased a tube amp that to bias you placed a very tiny screwdriver deep in a very small hole in the case and turn the slotted screw until two red leds glowed at the same brightness. It was very difficult to see the screw as it ... | |
| 12AU7 and 12AX7 long black plates vs short black plates. Any difference ? @billpete If I am reading it correctly, according to Joes Tube Lore the Gold Brand 5751 3 mica black plates are identical to the gold pin 3 mica black plate tubes other than the color of the pins. Per google: " Gold is used on tubes for its inert... | |
| Network cable rabbit hole @whyrichard A big improvement is to be had using Supra CAT 8+ ethernet cable. A 4 meter cable runs $81 including shipping from seller zendada on eBay. Many lengths available. This is excellent cable regardless of its lower cost. A while ago p... | |
| Need a Repair Shop in Boston I used FullerSound out of Waltham, MA to upgrade the capacitors in my speakers. All went fine, but it was my only time dealing with him so of course use at your own discretion. He does appear to have a strong online reputation for what that's wo... | |
| 12AU7 and 12AX7 long black plates vs short black plates. Any difference ? @inna The 5751 has about 30% less gain than a 12ax7. But don’t think it in any way translates to less versus more musicality. I know they were also produced for the commercial versus military market. Based on my use, I agree with Joe of Joe’s... | |
| An SACD Lesson Learned and the Marantz SA 1 @stereo5 Trying to be helpful. Ever since having been recommended by someone here on A'gon I have been using "Pirate Ship" for all my shipping needs. They obtain commercial shipping rates from USPS and UPS and offer SUBSTANTIALLY discounted ship... | |
| 2-Part Help Needed A cd player/transport are the only audio items I would never consider buying used. | |
| What is your impression of vintage Telefunken signal tubes ? I still consider Joes Tube Lore the best resource for information on tubes: AudioAsylum.com -- Joe's Tube Lore. And since we are talking NOS tubes its description is always current. In my preamp, of the many brands of NOS 12ax7s and 5751s I ha... | |
| Urgent ! Brent Jessee, Audiotubes, is closing on March 5th. Run buy something ! @inna I hope you give them a shot. I purchased my quads at Upscale Audio. | |
| Urgent ! Brent Jessee, Audiotubes, is closing on March 5th. Run buy something ! @inna I wish you would try a quad of Gold Lion KT77s to compare to your Mullard EL34s. You might be very surprised. They are the only current production tube of any signal or power tube type that I think compare favorably to NOS. | |
| Sales Tax for online orders @lostsouth has it right. Per google" Yes, most states now require sales tax on internet sales from out-of-state sellers who don’t have physical nexus, thanks to the Supreme Court’s 2018 Wayfair decision, which established economic nexus based on... |
