Quote: Thanks for the info i currently have the IRF510 and IRF610 but i hear some say the highs are quite rolled off.Comparing to what mosfets i dont know? but ive ordered some IRL510 and IRL610 because ive read there better. Currently ive built the ebay version but changed resistors to...

Hello, all i also bought the skeezer amp on ebay and looking to replace mosfet can anyone give me an idea as to which mosfets are the best sounding. Joe

  Quote: Mordy, Thanks for digging deeper into the matter. Sounds like heat is the main issue in determing life span of the units. looking into the capacitor lifespan its hour rating is based on maximum temp and voltage eg: 105 degree celcius and 250v. Being that our units dont run that...

Good info Nik thanks for sharing. Your right about the Voskhods for some reason they end up in my amp in the end. But ive found a few tubes that sound really good one of them being a western electric jw6ak5 ive never seen a tube built like these, theres no getter on top  its silvering is...

Hi Mordy, I'm using a ONEAC  CL1107 isolation transformer its basically like taking the transformer off the pole and putting it in your house. lower wattage of course. The main thing i noticed besides the improvement in sound is the voltage remains stable during fluctuations like the fridge...

Wrong post sorry.

Hi, Thanks for the advice im new to this game in the future ill try to keep things as simple as possible.  Regards. Joe

Hello, Ive been tube rolling for a long time and cant believe the differences in sound. But lately Ive added a oneac isolation transformer upgraded the caps inside and cant believe that it made an actual difference in improving the sound. Had a couple of friends listen and come to the same...

I just bought 3 SV GB all said gold brand but only one had gold pins?

Hello, when i got my littledot i also had hum and slight buzz and changing the power cord eliminated all noise now my LD is dead quiet. For some reason i found different cords are quieter than others i build computers and have lots of cords in a box so i know the difference they can make.

Hello, im new to this forum ive been working on tube rolling ang now getting into the hardware i look foward to sharing ideas and more with you all. jsvilla93
