What are some great 300B SET amps $5-7K?

[Argonaut]

I think the reason is different. GM70, 845 and 211 tubes are close, but Lamm has known and used GM70 for a long time. In addition, GM70 is more powerful.

I emphasize again that in my opinion the amplifier is so expensive because it did what almost no one does: the lower operating frequency of 8.5 Hz. This makes the sound more natural.
I say this because our internal standard is 7-8 Hz and a comparison with amplifiers with a lower frequency of 20 Hz is very strongly heard not in favor of 20 Hz.

In our 6C4C monoblocks, we got 4.5 Hz (upper frequency 60 kHz).

I wrote about objective parameters, and we have a dispute about personal perception and I do not see the meaning in it, because we are all different.

We can make an amplifier with a much better sound for 10% of this cost. For example, as in the photo.

You seem not to have read section 13 of the forum terms and conditions when you signed up Viz :

Excuse me?! First of all, I’m no member of any „team“, and secondly, I’m not in the business, and have no intention of selling you anything.

Do I understand correctly you’re offering a free sample for demo e.g. among audiophiles here in Switzerland and nearby Liechtenstein, to be returned at no cost if we find it does not back up your claims of superior sound quality?

If so, and you stand behind your claim, feel free to PM anytime! The very least you can expect is fair feedback, needless to say, if your product is indeed better sounding than the ones we discussed, I’ll buy the demo unit.

In addition, I’ll see to it that @christoph and @morricab would get to demo your product in their respective systems.

Greetings from Switzerland, David.

Sorry, I misunderstood the reference to you in this correspondence. I have no intention of buying anything from you either

I agree to provide a free sample, but you should pay for the shipping. Other conditions suit me. Now we make several pairs of monoblocks. One pair does not have a customer and in about 6-8 weeks I will be able to ship them to you. I will try to do it sooner.

I'm sorry, in my account I specified my website, which shows what I do.
I will make a correction.

Deal! 6?33? mono block demo units. Will pay for shipping. Contact me via PM when you're ready! Thanks!

Agreed!

You're not going to be at the show in Munich?

Unfortunately, no, we have limited departure of men from the country.

Get it. Stay safe!

Cool … I look forward to more correspondence from you regarding your work.

Thank you. It's quiet here, 700 km to the front line.

Hey everyone

I got the sound design atelier SE-33 demo units from a. g. to try it in my system.
All I can say: „These monos sound amazing!!!“…

Very accurate, clean and dynamic. Not to warm but still like a tube amp. That’s exactly what I like. No pipe and slippers music but still organic and natural sounding.

Tbh: This is one of the very best amp combo I heard so far at my place.

Thought bass extension and control on these amazing, too. The 128-step resistor network volume control in 0.5dB is a unique feature as well (can be bypassed, seem to remember you're using an autoformer?).

Can't wait to try them at my place

I‘m using it full on and do vol ctrl. with icOn4 Pro + LampizatOr. I like to play the gain raiding game

The efficiency of the output tube is more than 30%, so it does not heat much. If you count the total power consumption, including heaters, then the total efficiency is about 15%. This is an energy-saving amplifier among tube devices.

 

[SVS]

In general, 6?33? is a very useful tube for building an audio amplifier. It does not have its own "voice", so the sound of the amplifier can be from excellent to indistinct, depending on how the designer works.

I've read the entire thread and would be fair and square to read about the comprehensive feedback on these pages (i know it from @Phonatix side)...

Thanks David!

Monoblocks have "armor" - protective nets. I like them better this way.

 

[Phon@ix]

After a little carpentry work, the monos are placed in the sideboard. They are now well burned in and the sound has setteled in. The Symposium Svelte Shelf also helped to make the amps sound a little clearer than when they were sited on the furniture before.

Will test other footers and fuses in the fall. I am very happy that the Monos found their way to me via this thread - thx 2: christoph and acousticsguru. Serhii is now building me a remote ctrl with a similar color to the one from LampizatOr‘s TRP. He’s really a great guy who builds phantastic amplifiers.
