Voltron Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I heard that HP is releasing the 40% version outside tax-free. Why not 47,5%? Well they did run out of that specific cask. Info here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headphone Dreamer LD Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 On the 8th January I finally paid for a Blu-Ray Player Pioneer LX-91, of which is currently with Pioneer UK having the latest software upgrades, and DVD Multi region mod.

deepak Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 New Tung Sol EL34 quad. I should have kept a back up set of tubes, now I'm without an amp for a week unless I want to listen to dynamics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepak Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) Did you break one of the EL34's or something? Nope, playing some Guns N Roses finally did the old set in. I was listening to some of the Analogue Productions LPs a couple of days ago and the microphonics started to get worse in one channel then it started cutting in and out in the same channel (not completely though). Confirmed the same with the digital rig. It did the same thing today so I'm not chancing it with this quad and just replacing the whole set.

grawk Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I sent you 2 sets of tubes, didn't I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepak Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I sent you 2 sets of tubes, didn't I? Yeah I have the Mullards as well, but no way to test them. The TS are coming matched and tested, so it eases my mind a little. All I have to do is set the bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Apparently not. It was a function of when my kids finished school and when we have to move Britt and when she starts summer session. There was no way to do two weeks for the family and not include the weekend of CJ. I will miss you all but I'm pretty sure I will find something to do. Well, we'll miss you too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Did you break one of the EL34's or something?Remember this is the guy who can prefer an old raw digital master over an MFSL of the same. My point being he's pretty picky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepak Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Remember this is the guy who can prefer an old raw digital master over an MFSL of the same. My point being he's pretty picky. Wow that seemed uncalled for It's pretty hard to listen to music when the left channel is 70% louder than the right and keeps cutting in and out. Oh right you weren't hearing what I heard.

Dusty Chalk Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I didn't mean it disparagingly. I'm just saying you probably wouldn't tolerate much distortion before you'd be ready to replace the set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying you probably wouldn't tolerate much distortion before you'd be ready to replace the set. Ah sorry. WRT to the MFSL thing, I don't ever remember disparaging one of their remasters TBH. I might have posted about preferring other versions to theirs, but mastering differences are so much more obvious than subtle source or amp differences to me. Especially when lots of funky EQ is applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Yeah, that's why I used the word, "prefer" -- I try to be careful, sorry for any confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 50 pounds of rice and 16 boxes of Japanese curry mix, along with few other random packaged Japanese food.

luvdunhill Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Speaking of did anything show up? yes, just going to PM you about that in fact Thank you so very much! Forgot about the whole cable thing, or I would have already ordered them. Probably could get them at Guitar Center or something, but so damn busy this week.
