    Tubes

    in Technical/Restorations

    Posted

    I've always been fasinated by tubes; but have very little knowlege about them.

    Where can I learn about Tube amps (and servicing older tube amps and pre-amps). Also how do I determin what would be a good "project".

    I'm a commercial electrician with good soldering skills and tech. skills so hopfuly I can avoid being the "humin resistor".

    I just don't know where to begin. So I'll start here with this thread.

    Thanx,

    differences between heresy I and "1.5's"

    in 2-Channel Home Audio

    Hey Marshall,

    Thanx again.

    I,ve owned H II's(back in '92); and thought they were smoother and louder.

    Haven't had the privelege of an A/B test as of yet; but in general I think I am over joyed with the H I's.

    I think I will get the second pair because the price is excelent (so is the condition of cabinets and drivers).

    Only problem now is if I show up with another set of speakers I might get thrown out of MY house.

    That's ok; do what she want's to me but leave my Klipsch alone.

    Can anyone tell me when the transition years of the H-1's were (by transition I mean 1.5's)?

    What differences in sound quality(if any) compared to H-1's?

    I have a pair of 1978 H-1's and love them. I also have an oppertunity to get another pair but I think they might be 1.5's.

    Will there be a notable difference in the sound?

    My life got very busy the other day, so I wasen't able to get back untill now.

    I want to thank everyone for all of your valuable input!!!

    Keeping with temporarily being on a low budget I'm keeping my cd player(for now because its dependable).

    A friend of mine gave me a pre-amp to get me by for a while.

    BUT

    I'm now wondering if the pre amp output impedence not matching the amp input impedance is an issue?

    I have started a new thread in tech. questions.

    If any of you all know anything about this please shed a ray of light my way.

    Thanx, Mark

    compatability of pre-amp to amp.

    Hi Guys and Gals,

    I have yet another Question.

    I have recently recieved a Pre-amp for my sterio. The pre-amp OUTPUT impedence is 600 ohms. My amplifier INPUT impedence is 47K ohms.

    My question is: Are these components compatable on this spec, (seems to be a huge difference); or is this a problem waiting to happen?

    I have to run and eat dinner but I will be back on in about 1.5 hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx Mark

    O.K> I'm back from dinner- can anyone answer this Question? Thanx Mark

    sorry about the delay (had to clean some mayo off of my mousepad.

    from what I've been reading; some people (outside of the Klipsch community) have reported that Haflers tend to be thin of soundstage.

    Considering the rickedy setup I currently have I'm thinking a hafler might be an improvement?

    What are the advantages? Dissadvantages?
