The Stacker 2 arrived this morning!! Initial impressions .... I went with a pair of Raytheon 12FQ7s and a nice TS 5U4G rectifier. The amp powered up flawlessly and is dead quiet at my listening level. I am using my clock/ zap filter modded Sony 555es directly into the...

I will start .... TS 6F8G/ adapter driving two original ribbed plate TS side D getter 5687s in a Singlepower PPX3 SLAM.

Happy Birthday Mark!!!

I had some SR-80's that had been recabled with a Grado HP-2 headphone cable. The 80 with this change and some yellow senn 19545 pads was a much easier listening headphone; being more relaxed and less strident sounding than the stock bowl pad version. In fact, there was virtually no stridency at...

These two make look innocent. But, they are interconnect chewing machines. One of them chewed up another pair of my irreplaceable siver/ gold alloy hybrid IC's today. I just sent Zach/ Enigma Audio a pair of Gold alloy IC's they chewed completely through a few weeks ago. Before that, they dined...

I immediately fell for this amp when Kramer5150 brought the amp to our attention several months ago. This is a prototype balanced PPX3 SLAM .... the one and only balanced PPX3 SLAM. After much begging and pleading I finally got Mikhail to part with the amp. So, the amp will soon be on its way to...

I am totally taken with the way the new SP Extreme pairs with Grados .... well actually in my case Alessandro MS2's and modded Grado sr-80's. I am normally a Senn man anymore, although I happily used the Grado sr-225 for many years. However, the Extreme just seems to fix all the typical Grados...

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday!!! I wish you a Merry Christmas too.

My wonderful USPS delivery person showed up at 8:30 am with the amp. I have never got a package that early before. I have had the amp playing for close to three hours now and this amp just plain rocks. The sound has body and tone but the amp is very fast. Maybe most noteable, this amp has a...

Happy Birthday Mikey .... I hope you are feeling well and have a great day!

With all the new tube amp owners sprouting up I thought a basic setup guide would help. After you remove the amp from the shipping container set the amp on a level and well ventilated rack, shelf or table. Next .... the first thing you want to do is put the tubes in the amps tube...

Happy Birthday Biggy .... have a good one!!!
