ClementNerma replied to the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday.Well that also depends on the amp itself and the tube. On my Bravo Audio Ocean I got a sound signature I would clearly qualify as "warm".

ClementNerma reacted to HTSkywalker's post in the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday with Like.You should never expect a "too warm" sound from an SS output stage amp, The warmest from the stock EH won't go beyond a 10% warmer even...

ClementNerma replied to the thread Topping A90.I'm currently wondering, does the L30 sound as good as the A90 on its single-ended output? I've seen many persons say it does, but I'm a...

ClementNerma replied to the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday.I received my 6922 JJ tube this morning, so here we go! I guess the tube will need a bit of break-in, as it appears that even though...

ClementNerma reacted to Guidostrunk's post in the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday with Like.There are variations of OTL amplification. Has to do with coupling the output without a transformer...

ClementNerma replied to the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday.So if I understand there are three types of tubes: input/preamp tubes, power tubes, and output tubes?

ClementNerma reacted to Guidostrunk's post in the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday with Like.That's just a rectifier tube. It converts ac to dc voltage. The transformer is performing the output. That's why the ta-30 can run 3w @...

ClementNerma replied to the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday.Never thought that, I thought that big power tube = OTL. How can I how if an amp is OTC/OTL without looking at the specs sheet?

ClementNerma reacted to Guidostrunk's post in the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday with Like.Ta-30 is still a hybrid. Similar to the Woo audio Wa6. Transformer coupled. OTC instead of OTL. Which is good because it leaves the...

ClementNerma reacted to jonathan c's post in the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday with Like.Not without an adapter. The adapter “rewires” the 12-volt based nine-pin 12AU7 to make it “look” like a 6-volt based nine-pin 6922...

ClementNerma replied to the thread Massdrop x Alex Cavalli Tube Hybrid Amp (CTH) - Dropping Monday.Btw, is is possible to plug a 12AU7 tube on a 6922 socket? I've seen adapters on the web but they seem to be fully passive, so I don't...
