[quote user="guy sergeant"] I'm sure there are many bad implementations of the 845 and 211. Almost all of the commercially available ones are pretty mediocre. However I have heard good examples of both so I know it can be done. [/quote] Actually I d...

[quote user="hagtech"]Note the '63 has much higher gain.  The horizontal spacing is basically "mu".  Interestingly, the 6e6p has lower gain than both of these.  To me, the curves are beautiful.  Spacing is relatively constant, ind...

OK, the amp is running for the 6C41C for a few days and it looks like the tube should be burned-in sufficiently enough for now. Still I have to note that the sound of 6C41C was not changed since my initial listening of this tube. Originally I drove ...

CV,Nicely put.... and thanks for the Rp information on the 6C33. Do you have any thoughts, or a curve trace source, about the Rl ratio?  Now, since air core's are to be your weapon, here are some thoughts to explore. 1. Wind biffilar or ...

[quote user="hagtech"] Stepping back a moment, I'm guessing this tube is designed for radar operation.  Maybe in an aircraft.  The spec sheet definately talks only about pulse mode of operation.  Maybe it was a driver for a pulse radar...

After a month of listening exclusively Melquiades and decided yestoday re-switch everything and to play Lamm’s ML2. I was quite shocked with the result and I did not anticipate the ML2 could be so way off. I will not elaborate about the a...

It is difficult to generalize but I will. As much as ribbons with each hertz down sound more and more unpleasant the low power SET amps with each hertz down in bass region more and more and more loosing ground. Ok, I am not taking about the real bass...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Scrolling down to the images of the Lamm ML2.2, I see something that intrigues me... Four ML2.2s are used to bi-amp the Verity Audio speakers; I didn't know they could be daisy chained by using both the XLR and RC...

I have to tell you something: I do not believe to audio people. Whatever they say has some freakish twist of desire to present the sings in a certain way instead of witnessing and experiencing the thighs as they are. This is one of the reasons why I ...
