Eternity should be fine with Ether 2 on low impedance position and with driver tube with medium to low amplification factor to ensure lowest noise.

Absolutely! Down to 4 ohms is fine

Rusian tubes with deaf-dumb-blind album.!

Driver 6C5s old russian batch. (bias around -6.5V (for the tube i have).
Output GU50 (Heat 14V, bias -32V ).

Headphone HD650, K701, low output (4 Ohms tap)

Rusian tubes with deaf-dumb-blind album.!

I'm listening to this album on Apple Music.

Sometime next week, Odyssey would be in an operational state.

Got a pre-owned pair of EL34 Telefunken single O getter black base paired with 6C5s.. Warm and detailed sound of EL34 but a bit dryer than the Tesla...
Good match with T1 using high output (8 Ohms tap)...

Listening Maggie Reilly best of with T1 . (for the one remembering Mike Oldfield in the 80's ) and then Mike Oldfield - Return to Ommadawn..

I wonder how these Telefunken EL34 sound, because from what you describe they are towards my Philips EL34 xf5.

I bet they have the Telefunken house sound of clarity and sparkly highs.

Just watched the new Iron Maiden song with Eternity. I guess it's a premiere.

Anyone with blues and EL34? I think I might have something for you.



This is not exactly my cup of tea, but sounds good.

I listen to this using 2 different setup. Oblivion > He1000se and Destiny > LCD4. Both just as good. Against this backdrop I'll be evaluating Odyssey.

EL34 is an important power tube for me. EL12 spez is a predecessor of it and have similar DNA.

 

[OctavianH]

Cycling to the same tubes, I keep only EL34 as output and roll different 6J5 and my only pair of 6N7. all sound good, but I start to think I might need to get a pair of EL3N->6J5 and EL11->6J5 adapters. We will see, I think I'll need to expand a little bit my army of inputs.

Strapped pentodes as triodes gives off a different pleasing sound that is vivid and punchy. Such as EL3N, EL11 and c3g. Go ahead try it. As for me, I have EL11 and I can't wait to use that in a custom setup.

I've sold my Siemens C3g with Elise, but I still have a pair of Valvo EL11 and 3 pairs of Philips EL3N. So, why not, I'll think about it. I'll have to break my rule of "no adapter is best adapter" and this requires judgement and decision.

Should check with Tomas whether you can use those tubes in Eternity.

 

[OctavianH]

I think I can, I tried EL3N with a dual adapter EL3N -> 6SN7 and worked well, but the adapter broke, was a chinese stuff, if I'll try those again I'll use some single adapters to 6J5.

Tomas, can I use this in Odyssey's EL11 slots?
