audio-talk

Hello, Hopefully as time goes on more of the newer members will get to meet the old timers. Any excuse to witter about audio and possibly drink beer :-). Welcome Hamish. Definitely the best way - come to a meet and find out that most of us are spoddy blokes interested in the tortuous pursuit of mak...

Good luck with the job Graeme, sounds interesting. Not sure if anyone works "9 till 5" anymore though?

I had Sovteks in my LW and thought they were nice. Then I tried RCAs, and as Andrew says, they made the Sovteks sound a little grey. Not heard the Shuguangs - they sound like an interesting valve. Been thinking about playing with 2A3s again recently.

Good man Phil, just let us know when you want the brass.

Fine by me Philip. Don't want to hold things up.

Steve has history with OTLs. It ended in smoke...

Yeah, I've never understood their pricing for these. Surely they never actually sell any at that price?

My first issue arrived before Chrimbo but I was going to wait till I'd received more before commenting. But I got an email from them today saying that for a limited time the latest issue is available free on line. So go to http://www.audioxpress.com/ and see what you think for yourselves.

No pre as such, just 3 stages. So perhaps more like 2V than 2.8V?

Thinking further, I have an Aikido sort of to hand - that would have plenty of gain.

Seen those, but they work out a little more expensive with shipping.
