Re: Ever see a Dim Bulb Tester?
Jazzman53, that looks pretty spiffy, is that basically a switch connected to the bulb, bulb to a transformer and the transformer to an outlet? If so what are the specs on the tranny, if I may ask?

To get back to the original question, I guess I still find tubes win out for ultimate organic sound, as long as you have efficient speakers.

Re: How long does it take to adequately warm up the tubes (power and preamp) of a tube amp designed for home audio?
About 9 to 10 minutes for my HH Scott 299C - 15 minutes for my Scott 296.
Results 1 to 25 of 62
Thank you for making me feel less tech challenged.:whew: FYI, The 866 works great as a straight, no nonsense integrated with DAC.
