Roon is good right?

Good, but I don't think I'm gonna spend my money on this... Won me another Syl6sn7w for $39 and I also had to get a bike rack to carry my daughter's bike ($110)! Car service is next; there goes another $200... Overall, there's money pouring out of my pocket and I can't seem to stop the leak!

Damnmm I want a Thorens too.

I don't think my friend's got any idea what he's carrying. For the time being he uses it as a decorative vintage piece... He also got a Sansui tube amp along with the Thorens!

Ok, off to bed—for real this time! See you tomorrow.

I have a Thorens 115 MKII. Needs a new RCA patch cord - otherwise mint. And an Oracle Alexandria MKII that needs work on the suspension.

According to my research this is the "StarChild Question of the Month for February 2003": https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/questions/question54.html

Let me ask you this, then: how come my daughter knows all about Norse mythology despite being 6 years old? (answer: her english teacher did it!)

I bet the teacher had a Yggy.

Fanboy alert!

I'm a fan for a reason. Wish I was still a boy but time marches on and boyhood is left far behind.

There are many unbiased view of Yggy. This is one of them. People who have audition lots of dacs and still writes well of Yggy, says something about it.

Hehe, I *almost* placed a bid for that tube (glad that I didn't!)...the construction was not exactly the same as the tube I already have.

I got tired of the Yggy Yggy Yggy there.

Beauty, Simplicity. What more could one want in life - other than a black Bimby???



Notice input on Bimby is set to coax from USB by-pass ASUS soundcard)))

Are you saying that you have a Sylvania 6sn7w with different construction? Or do you just have a different 6sn7 type altogether?

P.S. I too am glad you didn't bid on the tube!

 

[angpsi]

Guys, anybody who appreciates resolution should listen to this recording! Stumbled on it by accident; Schiit fanboys, if your claims are true this should blow your mind—just trust me!

Exactly, the one I have is a different type 6SN7WGT.

Oh, cool tube, have a pair myself. Very gutsy tube, I enjoyed it immensely with my Mullard 6080. Sylvania 6sn7w is a different animal though, hope we don't cross swords over these in the future!

Interesting. Is the 6SN7W more neutral or warmer than the one I have?

Neutral and resolving. They're my Yggdrasil, but in some cases / for some people & setups these can be a bit over the top. Yet I repeat: I hope we don't cross swords over them!
