DNA Stratus 2A3 amplifier - first impressions
Jul 18, 2023 at 9:06 AM Post #4,306 of 4,456
Did you have the timing issue's the whole time with the stratus and wavelight? Or was that caused by your chain?

To be clear I think the 'timing issue' was a bogus attempt to sell me a transport device. The guy went from the Wavelight sounds 'best' with the accompanying hard-drive based platform to 'this will fix your issue.'

Given that, I do believe the issue was interaction with the chain. The Wavelight seemed to be functioning as designed once I adjusted the SU-6 dip switches to Rockna's suggested settings. Some gear just works together beautifully, and this just never beat the Holo in my setup. Again, its entirely possible that any 'flaws' I heard with the Wavelight were just in comparison to me loving the sound of the Holo Spring. To that point I now have the Holo May and have no intention of changing any time soon.

My EML Mesh 2A3s don’t glow one bit. But they sound great and are basically brand new.

I prefer my NOS 2A3s. But I don’t have a stratus. I have an Aficionado. If any one is interested in a basically brand new pair of EML Mesh hit me up. They come in their original box. I don’t use them.

Excuse my ignorance, but aren’t tubes not supposed to glow blue?

That's a great rectifier. Good luck. You can order them directly from Thomas if you want.

Elrog isn’t making them at this time. Already hit them up.

This would be for a DNA amp.

Thanks!

Anyone here have any experience with the CuTech XLR connectors on a DNA amp? How’s the fit? Too tight? Getting a cable made and was curious. Either going with this or furutech. Thanks!

Edit: Disregard, went with the furutech.
