Philly area Meet Jan 28th 2018 Impressions Thread
@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...- mondrax

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- mondrax

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...- mondrax

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...- mondrax

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...- mondrax

Levi, The amp is doing beautifully everything I throw at it it handles it superbly, I had Hendrix, Louise Armstrong, Queen , Plink Floyd, playing in front of me last night, I even watched a couple of movies as well. Until I realized it was 4 am. :-)- mondrax
