Only speaking for Doshi Audio - the above statement is not accurate.
Please contact me directly for a complete description on the capabilities of the Evolution (and V3) series of tape preamps.
Additionally, I would refrain from making disparaging remarks about industry benchmark companies like...
The electrical setup (and room construction/acoustical setup) are the foundation of the listening experience. We all love to talk gear and this stuff is not sexy. The fact remains that all of us have electrical distribution in our houses that complies with code for safety but was built to a...
i have to chime in and agree with this advice. Additionally, having a licensed electrician will also give you an opportunity to check/upgrade the ground in your location which will enhance the performance of all your gear
it was a pleasure to meet you and enjoy your company over the last couple of days. i hope we meet again soon. in the meantime enjoy in peace and thanks for your hospitality.
hello, welcome to the Doshi Club - The easiest way would be to get a good power strip or a Henry Engineering relay box. Please get in touch with me in the new year and maybe we can come up with another solution that will work for you. Regards, Nick

Glad you are having a good time with the gear. The goal has always been to use easily available tubes and to have the gear sound very good with new production tubes. This is the only sustainable path since NOS will keep getting scarcer. Use the power of the purse to encourage manufacturers to...
That's correct - this unit was developed for a specific customer (now 2) who has a large library of multichannel live recordings. My personal opinion is that 4 full range channels are sufficient to create an immersive sound field with hall cues available that transcend the 2 channel experience.
I was part of a great event at Paragon Sight and Sound last Friday. Using a 4 channel Line Stage, we demonstrated Peter McGrath's recordings and the new DCS gear at the store in Ann Arbor. The folks who attended had a chance to listen to some incredible recordings and the feedback we received...
12BH7 come in many flavors - some of the older RCA blackplate have a darker sound. There are other variants including two different versions of ECC99 (nickel and gold pins)
More esoteric tubes like 13D6 Brimar are extremely good but rare as are some Japanese built 12BH7A. The line stage runs...
