No one has the BA4 yet. It will be available in a few weeks. I'm third on the list. I was just making a point that ciems don't have to cost fortunes.

Ice just come to terms with something. I travel 5-8 times a year, I don't need an expensive portable
How about a Beyer DT1350 and get a Glenn OTL amp?

I really liked the 1350's. I sold them, but I enjoyed them very much. I have never heard any of Glenn's amps, but several people who's opinions I trust are very impressed with his products.

I haven't the tools nor the skill.

 

The C3g looks wonderful under that black satin metal shield.

Triple mica, gold pins and gold grid.

 

C3m with shield removed. For size reference of the enclosed tube to the shielded C3g.

There was a lot of good music and a lot of good sound but the best of the best was the Glenn OTL and the T1. This combination was fantastic.

 

Now I have to go out and get a pair.

Glenn builds one of the best OTL amps and loves this hobby as much as the most dedicated of us.

Problem is he loves and enjoys building amps way too much.

 

L I hope you slow him down a bit and get him mown the lawn.

On the C3m, Shigeki Yamamoto reports better sonics with shield removed. Speaking of which, if possible with adapter, I'd like to try the C3m inside my OTL amp.

Other than for protecting the glass, what is the purpose of the shield?

If I understood well it's to keep the heat inside

Interesting. What is it about that type of tube that requires more heat than a regular unshielded tube?
