LOL, agree!

People are so used to pay premium for anything audiophile now days, and refuse to believe there is actually a beauty queen in the trailer parks!

qoute:

All the ones you list are quite nice..Pretty much the cream of the sub-mini triode crop.. I have used the 5703, 6021, and 5744 in my own designs, and have friends who have used the 6111 and 6112.. All quite nice. The mystery of course is the 6832, but I imagine it will be decent, and maybe very good.. FWIW Based on limited experience I think the 6021 and 6112 sound better than just about any garden variety 12AU7..

can anyone locate some special version of 6832 tubes?

If I read the spec correctly, those need 400 mA current so that may be too much for CDM.

Talked to Ken about the 6832's and he said they should work, but might make the CDM even hotter than normal. Have a pair, just haven't tried them with the CDM yet. Cheers

Same here. Afraid to burn my palm if I put them in. Will test again in CV5.

Millard 6832. It's in ALO website.

Hey guys, new to the CDM family here.
 
One question: How does the CDM indicate how much battery it has left?
 
I'm seeing an orange light. Will it change to indicate its battery life?

 

[Dithyrambes]

No that's just if it's on or not. Charging indictator is on the charger. Just let it go to green, theb if you use amp only count maybe 6 hrs.

I see... So we don't actually know how much juice it has left... Thx though.

Change out those stock tubes w/some Mullard or Sonotone...you can't enjoy it's full potential with the stock tubes.

 

[ChiAki]

I've tried the Sonotone 5719, came out a bit looser in bass to me. Haven't tried the Mullard though. Heard it's hard to find.

 

[Dithyrambes]

Get the 6021s not the 6112. Read the thread few pages back. The generic 6021s that Seamaster found are mullard 6021s. They solve stock and your loose bass problem!
