I'm not an owner of EA-2000, but I know that you can really improve the sound with tube rolling. I'd say go for it!For owners of this phono stage - any improvement with tube rolling ? or no point ? What is your experience ? TIA
It was the first time I heard about using an oscilloscope for tube rolling. Why do you say it's required when we use the same tube type?Tube rolling on the EA-2000 requires adjustments inside the phonostage with an oscilloscope. When proceeding with tube rolling please either be competent, use a good technician or even better your dealer.
Yes never heard of such a thing.It was the first time I heard about using an oscilloscope for tube rolling. Why do you say it's required when we use the same tube type?
Actually, I asked my dealer to check with factory. Factory reply was that any other tubes other than the ones originally installled would need to adjust gain and L,R balance. Being the anal retentive person that I am, I can't help but to seek opnions from fellow users.
Okay, so I think their thinking is as follows:Actually, I asked my dealer to check with factory.

The target is to achieve better sound. While I have not taken delivery of the units yet, it is always good to plan ahead due to long lead times nowadays. If, there isno benefit to change to NOS tubes, then I would have saved some money. If there is a benefit, then it is money well spent. Prior to making a decision, it is perhaps good to seek advice from knowledgeble persons who share the same interests.What are you trying to achieve by changing the factory tubes?
