bump

Hi,   I'm looking to buy Shure e4c/i4c but I cannot find any shop who can still sell them. I would prefer european shop but also open to US shop.   thanks for your help.   Fred

opinion #4: I just turn the volume down all the way. I have never had any problems doing it this way.

nick20 : did you compare the TS and the mullard as rear tube ?

I'm still looking for a Tung-sol 5998

the only used is the 2, 3 and 4 for the audio. 2 is the audio ground 3 is the right 4 is the left

I didn't use it directly with headphone : I just plug in an ipod soundstation So for you it's normal (sorry but I don't really understand stuff about electricity )

I have a little problem : I modded an ipod mini 2G : I remove the 6 caps and I soldered well the cable and I still have sound when I use it without the blackgates (I tried in a soundstation). Is it normal ? I thought if I don't use a cable with BG caps I will hear noise and not the music...

a darkvoice 336i on ebay it's around 150£

pretty cheap : 20$ not including shipping if the shop doesn't send overseas I could help you for buy it and then send to you. edit : it's even cheaper when you add it to cart it's only 15$.

nope I bought it on a uk website : here Can you tell me where to find the TS 5988, you already gave a link, but seems not available anymore

I just received it so I asked because it wasn't the one I was expected It sounds really nice, I perhaps prefer my sylvania as front tube because the high and medium are little much brighter but the rca is really good balanced tube

I ordered a couple of tubes : One Mullard 6080 and another one was supposed to be a Sylvania (according the pic) but in fact on the invoice it's just wrote : USA TUBE. So I received this tube : JAN CRC-6SN7-GT VT-231 branded by RCA and with a smoke/grey glass Is it a nice tube ?

Anyone already tried this tube : Jan 6080WC Sylvania ? What do you think about it ?
