SET amp owners thread

Please add a deal disclaimer so we understand your financial bias as it concerns your audio reviews.

Thank you.
Hi Jeff, I’m Im not sure what you mean? Ad a deal disclaimer. Where? I’m new to this forum stuff.
There will be an announcement coming. It will be above the Destination Audio Forums
that I have taken over distribution of Destination Audio. I am also the US distributor of Circle Labs and Hemingway Audio Cables as well.

Darrin, Click on your username at the top right hand of the main WBF page. In the drop down there is a "signature". Tap on that and then make a signature with what you want it to say. Look at my signature as an example.

BTW, congrats on Destination Audio. Great looking speakers and I guess the electronics as well are VG. Congrats!

Look at the signature below @Rhapsody and other dealer's posts, it shows what brands they retail or distribute. You should do this on all the forums you belong to and other forms of social media like Facebook and Instagram.

I must be missing something because I can’t find what you are talking about. I wonder if it’s because I’m on an iPhone? Maybe I need to do it from a computer?

It’s a bit of a trick on the phone. If you rotate your iPhone into landscape mode you’ll see everyone’s signatures field shown below the posts. Yes on a computer screen it will all just be displayed.
 
Yes I sure am. I really like the sound of the Copper plates. Graphite plates sound good too but the copper is more my taste.
Nice, and I agree it's a matter of taste, having said that, it also seems to have to do with how low- or high-powered a GM70 amp is (a radio transmission tube that'll work with surprisingly low plate voltage).

Greetings from Switzerland, David.

Pnoe AER BD3b compare with Decware zen triode 2.5w, coincident Frankenstein mk2 8w, and border patrol with two power supplies 6w. Latter two are 300b. The border patrol with Sophia princess was less than the coincident with Genalex, but once the Genalex was moved over the border patrol was much better.

unfortunately demo was on digital. Will go back in a few months when he sets up analog

He’s still got the Altec Voice of the Theatre at the other end of the room, I hope?

Hiraga’a room. Various 300bs from partridge, VAC, and wytech. He runs the WE on his own made amp. The analog is connected only to the WE

Interesting: last time I visited (not supposed to use neighbor’s first name?) that’s where the Altecs were?! How do they even move this stuff when I’m hardly able to lift a tube amp, LOL! I’m surprised he got the Decware 25th Anniversary already, waiting list got even longer since I got mine.

this is not the 25th anniversary.

i don’t know which Altec you heard, there are many Altecs in France in the Hiraga group and each one sounds different
