Maybe she just preferred other types of music which turned out to be the case. A very common occurence with artistic expression and personal tastes.

Think about it. It really is a simple concept. Sorry I posted a contrary opinion. Won't make that mistake again.

Irony noted to my contrary response and discussion ..!

 

A few of the fellas stopped by last night for the Rhapsody.Portland debut of the Heretic 612s. The speakers surprised everyone.

 

You do have a wonderful room Bob !

Thank you. I am blessed. The photos never even hint how great the view is out into the forest.

You should step outside and share a photo of the forest. That would be very cool!

It's actually hard to concentrate on the music when you are in Bob's room as that view out the windows is mesmerizing.

 

And my SET journey begins… fired up the TriodeLabs 45 EVO Integrated with:

Sophia Electric Aqua II 274B rectifier
Emissions Labs 45 mesh plate
Chelmer 6SN7 (Sovtek)
Gold Aero 12AU7 (Telefunken), W Germany

Generic interconnects to my Rossini, speaker cables Bayz prototypes, older Shunyata ZTron Python power cable (no noise filtering) direct to dedicated outlet. This all just until I get the cabling dialed-in, this will let me get some burn-in hours on the amp.

The 2w from the 45s plenty of mojo for the Heretics. Let the wild rumpus begin!

 

Congrats Bob, looking forward to your impressions of your new toys. Love the view in the forest.

Its a “Gold Aero” phono tube, made in W. Germany but has the telefunken diamond stamp in the bottom of the glass. I am told thats indicative its a telefunken tube (i am a noob to such matters)

Gold Aero was a US tube reseller sold quality tubes which then relabeled . Must be a telefunken smooth plate (smooth gray anode plates no ribbing on them) good choice very musical dynamic tube. have fun with it
P.S the best midrange sound in the ecc882 family for me

Nice amp stand for the SET

 

Bob, to quote the famous line from a Yello song… “Oh Yeah.” I started my high end audio journey with a Yamamoto Sound Craft A-08S with EML solid plate 45s and efficient speakers.

The gang listened with Pilium pushing the electrons, to get a taste of the Heretics with SS power. One of them lent me a long pair of generic interconnects which let me get the TriodeLab amp up and running. When the amp is burned in I’ll toss up a couple videos some folks really enjoy them.

I looked up the Yamamoto amp you mentioned — that must have provided a wonderful introduction to your audio geeky-ness. Sure looks like a sexy little amp (and beautifully constructed) do you still have it?

Sadly, I no longer have it. It was beautifully point-to-point wired. I am not ruling out acquiring another in the future with the right speakers in a second system.
