QUAD ERA-1 Thread
I wanted to share with you all that the LTA MZ2 amp breathed some no life in my Quad ERA-1s! It’s a really good pairing which is capable of producing holographic imaging on tracks where the spatial information is there. I’d been using my Quads with some budget solid state desktop amps and...- Thunder240

MicroZOTL tube rolling thread
I have spent the last year contentedly enjoying my MZ2 with 1957 Sylvania 12SN7GT with black T plates and RCA 6201with black plates (dates unknown). The RCA 6201s are creamier in the mids than the Syl 12AT7WA grey plates that LTA supplied, which I love, and I didn’t feel the need to keep...- Thunder240

If you’re interested in a closed back set of cans that doesn’t pressurize at all, the Fostex TH/TR series and it’s Denon and EMU siblings are often called “semi open” because they let substantially more air move back and forth than a well sealed closed back line the PM3. And they manage to do...- Thunder240

[Resolved] Repair Manual for Fostex? (TH610)
OP, how did you end up removing the hanger/yoke from the plastic ring it attaches to, or was that not necessary for your fix? I have a broken yoke, and I ordered the replacement part from fullcompass, but I can’t figure out how to remove the remainder of the old yoke from the cup. The yokes are...- Thunder240
