Oh..any1 had spare tubes to sell? I dun have high requirement, just want to get rid of the stock tubes and have some fun with tube rolling.. . The Darkvoice will match with HD650....

Hello Maus,
The signal tubes (M8100) will bring the most difference to the sound. They'll remove the harshness in the highs coming from the stock tubes, but they will not extend the bass, instead they'll restore it into its true form (consider there is no bass boost). The bass will become very tight and well defined (stock bass is rather blurred and distant), but by no means extended.
The power tubes can be either from Svetlana or Ulyanovsk, it doesnt seem to make much difference at all. Just get either

No the DV332i has no cable at all, you will have to get signal cables and a power outlet cable.

Anyone can recommend me what are the tube rolling options??

I have kinda expected that I wont be getting a mini->rca cable, but not even a power cable?

.
Got myself the Mullards yesterday....19 quids... ouch.

Thanks for the reply

 

[squall343]

They do send me cables but frankly their stock cable must be the one to change .

If you've got the DV332... and the HD650s... the Svetlana 6S19P-EVs and Tung Sol 6AK5s totally tranform the HD650s, expecially with the RAL CryoSilver cable... again... HARD TO BELIEVE.

Congrats mate, i know you've been waiting a while for it now. i think il have to pop over to olney and have a listen.

Im tempted to get some senn 650s once i get a job as they are pretty cheap at 150 ish, then i could bring over and we could have a mini meet

O and did you get yours from ebay, and what were the other tubes like, pricing etc?

Thanks Adam,

Yeah i got the tubes from eBay as well as the amp. Mullards were about £11 shipped for the pair i think. I got some Ultranovsks as well but i bought a batch of four for the reasonable price of £9.70. All the way from Russia too!
Get the Senns!!!!!!Get the Senns!!!!!!Get the Senns!!!!!!Get the Senns!!!!!!

Oh yeah, got my wheel today too. Speed limit here i come!

 

[Godkin]

I'd go with Gradofan and say a great combo is the SVETLANA 6S19P-Bs and TUNG-SOL 6AK5Ws. Another sublime pairing are the SVETs and the WE403Bs.

 

[adfinni]

Ah ebay, ive had a look on there and i see the mullards come from the UK. Finally some good news for us UK head-fiers.

Il have to read up on the amp a little more, but the il try and get the senns asap, then hopefully i could try them out on your darkvoice before i purchase one then get into tube rolling

O and i doubt very much you'll be hitting the speed limit, it is a punto

I hope the bill for the rest doesn't set you back too much, as take money away from the audio fund.
