I've had my MG Head since December and have noticed the RCA Jacks have become very loose. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, did you tighten the jacks yourself or play it safe and return the unit for service? I'd do it myself, but it looks a little cramped behind the transformer...

Nick, You've started a good thing here. I've had my MG Head OTL since December, but I've yet to do any tube-rolling with it. Please add me to your growing list. I'm lucky enough to live about 30 minutes from Triode and a few hours from Tube-World. If you were to suggest ONE 5751 now, what...

Since your on the topic of non-headphone tube amps, here is my $.02. There are some great sounding Vintage stuff out there. Take for example this gem I found. 1959 EICO HF-81 ($350 from private seller) Quad EL-84s Tube Rectified Point-to-Point wiring These can be had for as...

Fred, All your points well taken. You told me what I needed to know, that a LP recording *can* sound better than the CD counterpart. You make some valid points which brings me to another question. How hard is it to find LP material that is "killer" quality? Would you say that 98% of LP's...

I should add that whlle cost is a concern, I would like a setup that can surpass what CD can offer. I'm not sure how much I would have to spend to do this, but from other forums Ive read, it seems that a decent setup could do that. I havn't heard SACD yet, but the lack of titles makes me...

I have the Senn HD-600 / MG Head OTL combo and want to try out vinyl. Anyone have a good starter Turntable/Preamp/Cartridge setup they can reccommend to me? The Sumiko Project 1.2 / Phono Box looks appealing, but I'm not sure how well it would work with my setup? Is the Creek OBH-8SE or...

I realized today that the new OTL unit I have is not the same unit as I listened to in the store yesterday. I listened to the older model without the OTL, which is what I compared the Grado RA-1 to. The OTL model is great, and having the OTL switch is very nice and makes it easy to notice...

Hey all, I'm brand new here and just wanted to say hi and thanks for the great forum. It's quite useful for a newbie like myself to get such great opinions and commentary on headphone related products. I already had been a Senn HD-580 / DSP Pro owner and recently decided to get more...
