    The Reference 6SN7 Thread

    I don't want to go sideways so I might be spending big bucks. I've been looking at Vintage Tube Services out of Michigan but haven't called until I learn more of what I want.

    The Reference 6SN7 Thread

    Good to know Jon, I guess black or grey glass, I'm trying to figure out what I want to buy to sound better than my Sylvania Baldwin 6SN7GTB.

    The Reference 6SN7 Thread

    I always wondered if tube microphonics is the same thing as a system sounding toobey and if tube dampers, like o rings, would solve the problem.

    The Reference 6SN7 Thread

    Thanks Steve, You might have noticed I slipped on my keyboard and said 6NS7 instead of 6SN7 so I corrected it. Right now my Baldwin 6SN7GTB tubes sound quite toobey compared to my 6922 style tubes I use.

    The Reference 6SN7 Thread

    I would like some feedback on the difference in sound between 1940's era RCA 6SN7-VT231 and Sylvania 6SN7-VT231 if at all possible. Right now I'll using Sylvania 6SN7GTB in the late 50's early 60's era.

    Musical Paradise M2-D2 AK4490 Balanced Dac Reviews?

    Tube rolling is a blast and it sounds like I could add a SS plug in rectifiers to the list. Which one would you recommended because when I check them out they say to be careful might need to change some electronic parts or risk damage to your equipment? I have a mk1 and mk3 deluxe if that makes...

    MP-D2 MK lll Deluxe relay drops out when touch anything on rack

    Okay, I got busy and made a ground cable which I hooked to my stereo rack, did a quick test with very good results. So far the dac works perfectly and no relay dropouts. It looks dangerous because I plug it into the wall outlet but there is only one wire hooked to the ground pin and no wires...

The static electricity is very low with no spark but when I touch any piece of equipment or the metal rack, the relay in the MP-D2 MK lll deluxe drops out. I emailed Garry but he doesn't have a solution to this problem other...

    MP-D2 is started to sound thin, no midrange or bass. Which tubes would you replace?

    Tubes 1 and 3 are used for RCA output and you can leave two and four empty. If using XLR you need 4 matched tubes and capacitors.
