Glad you're enjoying 'em D. I should have loaned you my gz480 which has been my favorite recti tube by far with the 51s....
The latter.In reading tube test results, does the term Reference refer to specs when new or the bad point? For example, if a tube measures 52/52 on a Hickock T7 with a reference of 40, does that it mean it’s measuring better than new, or used but still a little life left?
Well, minimum value can be considered as a reference point too.I see minimum value listed often too, but in this case it is labeled Reference.
I'm sure that the "reference" value of 40 is the minimum good amount here.Fivre 5R4GY
Any other sources for this adapter out there? This eBay seller doesn't have them anymore.
How important is it to match all four tubes in a balanced DAC? It's hard enough finding a matched pair of EL51s much less a matched quad.
I thought this is possible with the balanced GG/Pacific DACs as well just that there it is the back pair of sockets to use as SE only?THE different and cool thing about the TRP VS THE GG/PAC is that for the balanced version, you dont need 4 tubes to play it. If you only insert the front 2 tubes its essentially a SE Dac and U can use that mode to test out new tubes to see if you like them in your system..
Has anyone experimented with PCs on the Lampi? I just put a Synergistic Research Galileo SX on the TRP and holy hell the stage just expanded exponentially with incredible bass tonality and texturing. I've never experienced imaging like this - 30 feet up in the air with wraparound!
