| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line If you’re looking for a warmer sounding tube with less grain for your Audio Mirror, I bought an NOS Mullard 6DJ8 for $47 from Brent Jesse. | |
| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line @wlutke There is an Aurender N10 for sale right here on Audiogon for $3k. I just purchased a used N10 to replace the N100 and it sounds great. From what I read, these models are more organic sounding than the newer models. I never had issue with... | |
| Searching for a little more warmth I would add a pair of REL subs which I recently incorporated into my system. Not only did they add a better bass foundation, they also made the sound fuller. It was not hard integrating the subs by following the instructions. I would contact John ... | |
| Anyone else order Caladans from Clayton Shaw? For those of you who heard these speakers or other Clayton speakers in person, I’m curious about the tonality and texture these speakers project. Besides having a large soundstage and deep bass, which side of neutral are they? Do they have the mi... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes Here’s the latest update. On a whim I decided to swap fuses to see if there were any differences. I was using a recommended Hifi tuning copper supreme for its warmer presentation. I replaced it with the stock fuse and the upper glare was reduced f... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @fleschler I’m returning the Mullard to Brent in exchange for a Bugle Boy. He described the sound of the Bugle Boy just as you had stated. | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @newbee As you recommended, I installed a JJ and it sounds better the Mullards. It removed the piercing extended highs but the overall sound is just as good as the Mullards. It has a nice soundstage and the bass is well defined. Who would have tho... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @wlutke Thanks for the info. @earthbound I forgot I purchased another Mullard from Brent Jessee in the past. This one clearly shows it as a Mullard ECC88 and the other was hard to read but the box said it was a 6DJ8 manufactured by Mullard fo... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @newbee I just ordered a JJ so I’ll see how it goes. | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes The Dac I’m using is the Tubadour IV and previously I was using a MHDT Orchid. I purchased the Tubadour for the extra inner detail and more lively presentation. I do like the overall sound but I guess the extra extension and liveliness of the Tuba... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @earthbound The Mullards are starting to warm up and probably didn’t give them enough time to break in. I guess there’s no set time especially for NOS tubes. The real problem is I have tinnitus in my left ear and it’s extremely sensitive to hi... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @pwerahera Thanks for the list. I spoke to Brent today and he suggests giving a NOS Amperex 6DJ8 a try. | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @tomcy6 I bought the Mullard from Brent Jesse from his recommendation. I called him earlier today and still thought the Mullard was my best bet. He also suggested the Amperex but there was no guarantee it would sound better. He did hear from some ... | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes @earthbound thanks | |
| Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum iii I have the same amp and this is normal. Enjoy! |
