Rolling Tubes

Well I left the phono amp on all night. Gotta say I am impressed with the change. Playing Brain Salad surgery right now and it is sounding good. I have the opamp numbers and may change them out along with some caps or all the caps. I'll have to find out a suitable sub.

If you left it on all night, you probably need to re-adjust the bias.

I forget and walk off and leave them on all the time. Then I wonder why it is so warm in my room. LOL This one you don't bias. LOL

I can't think of a better way to warm the room.

In the winter it is ok. I keep the door shut so it is the coldest room in the house. When the tubes are going it gets comfortable in there pretty quick.

Well I bought a 2001 Sovtec 12ax7 LPS to try in the Bellari. I read the reviews and they say it sounds better than the new Sovtecs of the same kind. Well we will see in a couple of days.

I think the AA-32 uses four x 6GW8/ECL86 and 3 x 6EU7 or the phono section. Dig right in. AA-32 schematic is below.

Thanks for the schematic Web. I found it, too. Mine has the 6GW8s and 6EU7s. I can barely make out the printing on the tubes, so it's hard to tell which brand they are.

So how does it sound?

Hi John,

I haven't hooked it up, yet. I dusted off some 60's stereo equipment to use in the system. I'll let everyone know once it's up and running.

I can see Larry on his lawnmower now, running into a tree because he has his laptop duct taped to the steering wheel..

(hmmm.. or maybe... yeah, that IS a good idea!)

<goes to find some duct tape... >

A riding lawn mower in my yard don't know if you could turn it around. LOL

I only have 1/3 of an acre and a 1400 sq. ft. house. You figure which is bigger. LOL

Well I'm burning in the Sovtec 12AX7 LPS that was made in 99. It sounds a lot better than the chinese one..
