    @gandhisfist That was my setup, I wish I had a chance to do some tube rolling, I had some 1940's tubes, RCAs. Telefunkens, and some Japanese ones, at some point I had a line of folks wanted to listen to the setup, what I had was just a taste, didn't get to play the balanced setup. The...

    I did check the transformer, was not getting any hotter that other setups, the tubes were also not radiating much heat as other ones I have. But to be on the safe side I need to do a bit more research. Cheers M

    Hey guys i am based in the US and just got a pair of Telefunken's El12's, from Germany and listening to them as we speak, it took a while to get them here and i was getting worried as well. I have ordered some other things from Japan. I would say yes patience is the key. It also depends on...

    It is fun and gives me more options to enjoy music. Pushing buttons, switching tubes, bringing down a lever on a vinyl record, and listening for example Louis Armstrong in front of you. Don't get me wrong I like uncompressed digital formats and have some good gear to play all formats, at the...

    I own the Elear's and IMO they are a set that you need to adjust to them, but if you tube them you can chill them and as far as I know they can be a good pair for the Elise. Currently a guy well known in the review community has them, as soon as I get them back I will give you a report of how...

    Rossiew, thanks for your reply. I was concerned that somebody would reply saying that what i was trying to do will never work. But your reply gave me an idea, so i picked up the amp and as soon as I had it in my hands the hum went away, that tells me it is a ground issue or perhaps it is to...

    Sony MDR-Z7 Upgrades and Mods Thread

    Question for Thesmokingman.  I assume you removed all surgical tape and just placed the carbon filter, correct?   I have a pair of Z7s totally stock.   Currently ZeosPanthera has them to do a review, I told him that I was going to mod them, he wanted to do a review just as stock for now.    ...
