I agree!

Yeah Western Electric 300b tubes after a few hundred hours sound beautiful.

How do you like the NRG The Five nowadays? I'm thinking about upgrading my Morrow Audio MAP3 power cable for my Cayin HA-300 300b tube amp, and I'm thinking about either The Five or Triode Wire Labs Seven Plus.

Has anyone try the Triode Wire Labs Seven Plus or Ten Plus power chord for their Cayin HA-300? I think I'm down to this or the NRG Custom The Five. Triode Wire Labs - Seven Plus NRG Custom - The Five

Are you using your Digital American on your digital products like DAC and Seven Plus on your amps/analog products? I'm looking at them for my Cayin HA-300 300b SET tube amp. I'm guessing I should get the Seven Plus, correct?

Ooh, what's the price on that Audio Envy Expanded, and how did you get it? Any hookups you can get for me, too? As for the Audioquest Thunder, I do think going into the Power Plant 3, it gave it a bit more oomph, as well as blacker noise floor. My system right now even going into the LCD3 is...

Let's talk upgraded cables: What cables are you all running into your HA-300 mkI/mkII? Currently I am running the Morrow Audio MAP3 power cable from my PS Audio Power Plant 3 (which has the Audioquest Thunder power cable), and I'm thinking about upgrading that Morrow Audio power cable to...

Whoa, I never heard of either of them! Who makes them? Where did you buy them?

What 22DE4 tubes are you using there? I don't recognize them.

Which model & year are the RFT? first time I've ever heard of those

(Pardon the dust!) Absolutely love the pairing of my Western Electric 300b and Sylvania 6SN7W metal tubes. Pricey, but such a great combination with soundstage, speed, texture, bass extension, and beautiful mids and vocals.

Where do you get them, and is it easy to remove the old pads an install the new ones?

Love mine. Sure, I had it fairly early and it developed a bit of gas, but the 5 year warranty took care of it with no problems. I showed Western Electric the photo of the glow that should only be at the top, and they sent me a newatched pair as well as return label for the ones I have. That...

Yeah, I highly recommend the PS Audio Power Generator, which I have for my HA-300. The only times I have noise issues is from a bad tube, so maybe try different tubes, too.

It was the biggest reason I didn't replace my Psvane Acme 300b with another pair of ACME because they only have 1 year warranty and mine developed problems 1 year and 3-4 months in. What's the warranty on Elrogs?

And as crazy as it sound, I got it as a bargain for a pair of NOS at $500. I usually seen non-NOS going for $600+

I'm actually very interested in the Caldera, but I do want to hear it on my system to see if it will be an upgrade, not a sidegrade to my LCD-3. How were you able to get a demo pair to review? System-wise, I have the Chord Hugo TT2 DAC to Cayin HA-300 tube amp with Western Electric 300b tubes +...

What do you like about the ZMF Caldera over the LCD-3? I've been wondering if I should upgrade the LCD-3, but not side-grade, while staying in the same ballpark of the sound I like with the LCD-3 (which is why I didn't want to upgrade to the LCD-4 and LCD-5). What's...

So I changed back my 22DE4 to the stock RCAs. Definitely more dynamic, especially with the drums, and I like the front to back depth more and not having the left right channels not be pushed way farther than it should be. So for me, there's definitely a noticeable difference between the...

My current WE300b (1 1/4 year in) and the other tubes are working great. Lots of dynamics, speed, soundstage, and textures, no electrical noise or humming.

I did have my first pair develop some noise issues, but because of the 5-year warranty, as well as having the factory be in the US, the replacement was very easy. They sent over a new matched pair, I tested it, then shipped back the bad pair. All shipping paid by them.

I'd highly recommend trying the new Western Electric 300b. They're pricey, but with the 5-year warranty and amazing sound, they're worth it!

Ahh interesting. I'm also running NOS Sylvania 6SN7W metal base tubes and Western Electric 300bs. Oh, I forgot to mention that I have the original HA-300 Mk I. I'll probably stay with the Sylvania 22DE4 for a week or two to burn them in, then see about switching the back ones to the stock. The...

So I managed to snag 4 NOS Sylvania 22DE4 , and they're the first ones I've gotten that didn't have a low-level electrical noise, at last after a few minutes. What I noticed vs the stock 22DE4 is: There seems to be less depth front to back, but wider left to right, almost like sound are pushed...

I think I'll go w/ the Hart Audio as long as they're an improvement over the stock cable. Ideally, I'd like to get it with 2.5mm balanced end, plus a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter https://hartaudiocables.com/collections/dan-clark-audio-mr-speakers
