The older brand seems to be STC. Why wouldn't I be ok. You don't know Zachik as much as I know Zachik. Our association goes way back when Glenn was going to make me my 2nd Glenn amp - the GEL3N. Glenn was going to make my amp and he put me right up front. Why? Guess he likes me. Zachik was...- UntilThen

I did wanted to stay away from posting but I came back to warn you and others about xulingmrs 5b/254m to 6L6 adapters. They fit too tightly on the top cap. When I remove the cap, the top cap came off from the tube even though I had super glued it when I first received the tubes.- UntilThen

Apologies Zachik at humour that went wrong. I am going to step back now from posting and only post when new builds are made in the other appreciation thread.- UntilThen

Definitely. Don't think of using it as drivers. They are 807 equivalent. c3gs as driver into those power tubes and it's a great combination. It's sitting in Ultimate for a long while.- UntilThen

I chuckle at my common sense statement but Lory you need to get Deyan's adapters pronto. If the 5b/255m are as good as the 5b/254m, then this is literally the only power tubes you need. I have every reason to believe that the 5b/255m are similar sounding as 5b/254m. In fact I told Eric that...- UntilThen

I can't remember what Eric said about not using both xlr and 1/4 out at the same time but he did say that.- UntilThen

Back in the days when there were WA22, Studio Six and Glenn OTL amp. This is already a very good trio but it is much better now. :relaxed:- UntilThen

You're not supposed to drive 2 sets of headphones at the same time. Eric caution about that sometime ago. ALO Audio Studio Six is different. It can drive 4 headphones at the same time. The power supply is good for 20 watts. You can though listen with headphones and speakers at the same time...- UntilThen

Because my Redgum is so powerful, I set the volume on it to 9am only and then I vary the volume on Ultimate. If I want it louder I just turn up the volume on the Redgum or the Ultimate. Probably on the Redgum because it has a remote. :relaxed:- UntilThen

Yggy's rca 1 out to Odyssey and Yggy's rca 2 to Oblivion. Then Ultimate preamp out to Redgum Rgi125enr integrated amp driving my Axis Voicebox S...- UntilThen
