That's too bad.... But as cheap as they are, I guess I shouldn't be surprised...
Tak... You indicate that you liked the Sony MDR-605 pads more than your modified stock pads... I found replacement pads for the MDR-605LP on...
Yes, the possible customization is limited only by one's imagination, budget and yes, feasibility. :) That said, the base Glenn OTL is $700, with...
In my experience, rectifiers often do have a "sound". And I wonder if it might be due to some of the same reasons you list above? It seems to me...
What is the configuration of the HEXFRED rectifiers you build that fit into a 5-volt octal socket? I would assume that they are comprised of a...
I suggest we consider a similar question because the answer is likely the same: Does anyone know the reason why double triodes from different...
For sure, I was speaking very generally using my ears and gear. :) But it is important to remember that whether B+ is actually "higher" depends...
I believe your amp came with 42EC4/PY500 rectifiers. Other Glenn owners whose amps use these rectifiers indicate that they hear no differences in...
I have one mercury-vapor rectifier, an AX50 (that requires an adapter to drop 5 volts down to 4). The couple times I used it, it sounded pretty...
I like the HEXFRED very much. Perhaps due to the B+ being 16 volts higher than your design value, the presentation comes across as very fast with...
My ears are not good enough to be able to differentiate between two tubes of the same type, made by the same company, at about the same time, with...
I am not an electrical engineer, so this is an intuitive understanding. I would absolutely welcome a better explanation. :) Yes, in my...
My take on this is that for most of us, this is a hobby. It is not a business. People buy their own equipment with their own money. And if they...
That might be true for some, but I assure you that the major reason I roll tubes is to obtain better sounding music. That said, I will be the...
But that doesn't change the fact that the correct bias for a 6AS7 is different than for the 5998. And the correct bias for the 6SN7 is different...
