    La Figaro 332S amp, pre-outs?

    Does anyone use one of these amps? I have looked at the ads for them on Ebay and China sellers, but I can't find any pictures of the back part of the amp with RCA outs. The ads all say "pre-outs", but the only pics I have found show only inputs.   Another question, what type tubes does this...

    Post A Photograph Of Your Turntable

    A few of the turntables I own, yeah, I guess you could say I am obsessive-compulsive, keep meaning to sell a few.... I have 3 or 4 out in the shop system. Can't pass up Thorens, Garrards, or Rek-O-kuts.       Thomas

    What size capacitors did you get from Radio Shack, I'm thinking of doing the Fitz Mod and I believe the size is 100uf/25v.

    DV 336SE hum-Fitz mod?

    Mine hums only with certain tubes, out of about a dozen 6sn7's, I have 5 that don't hum and 7 or so that do. I'd like to try some of the Ken Rad black glass tubes I have, but they hum. The easiest thing to do is just use the tubes that don't hum, right?

    DV 336SE hum-Fitz mod?

    I have a near new DV 336SE, 100 hours of use. I have a small collection of good testing 6sn7 tubes, some hum and others don't. I would like to do the Fitz mod, if someone can point me to the origianl post of how to do the mod I would appreciate it. I've searched several times with several terms...

    Darkvoice 336 hum UPDATE DC Does It!

    I have a DV 336SE, it is almost new, maybe 100 hours use. With several different 6sn7 tubes, it has a hum, but with others it doesn't. All the tubes test well into the good range. Would the mod mentioned in the original post apply to the 336SE as well?

    Need Darkvoice amp info

    I'm interested in buying one of the Darkvoice headphone amps, either the 332 or 336i. Has anyone ordered one from Audiophilechina.com? Price with shipping seems reasonable, how long does shipping take? Any help would be appreciated, or if someone knows of another dealer, asides from Ebay, let...

    Need Shellbrook Audio Address

    I sent my $325 Shellbrook Ascent Signature amp(it worked for all of 5 hours) to the shop in Meridian, Idaho last December for repair, can't get a response from Drew. Tried the contact page on his defunct website and his e-mail at least 50-60 times. I know he's folded, but if anyone has a street...

    Oh! I am SO loving my ASL MG OTL 32 > K1000s!

    My ASL OTL 32 is really a great option for someone who needs a decent preamp as well as a headphone amp. I also have a MPX3 Singlepower, which is a better headphone amp, but the flexibility for the money, I'd take the ASL OTL32. I use it in my main listening room with a pair of Dodd Audio tube...

    Shellbrook audio still around??

    Just wondering if Shellbrook Audio labs is still in business. I sent a broken Ascent Signature amp in for repair about 6 weeks ago and I can't get any response from Drew at Shellbrook. I don't even know if he received it! A little communication goes a long way... If anybody knows what's going...

    It does help! Thanks, I just wanted to make sure my use of 22 gauge was somewhat in the ballpark.

    My DIY interconnects...okay?

    I know this thread has been repeated and discussed but I can't seem to find anything that will ultimately answer my questions. I have been making my own interconnects, mostly to make them the right length that I actually need between components and to clean up the clutter of overly long cables...

    DT770 bad driver....

    Thanks for all the help, they are still working okay, there are only a few recordings with deep bass that distort. I will have a look-see as to the thin fabric that may be causing the distortion. Tom

    DT770 bad driver....

    I just got my Beyer DT770's back from Larry, for a woody and recable, and a month later one of the drivers is not handling deep bass like it used to, a lot of distortion on some music. So does anyone know of a place to order replacement drivers and are they replaceable? I wouldn't mind trying...
