  1. https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/KT88-big-power-Single-ended-HiFi-Audio-Class-A-Tube-Amplifier-Excellent-bass/813423_2001161898.html?spm=2114.12010612.0.0.5yvQHj I see its went up a few bucks, but still a good deal.
  2. Thanks for the offer. Just gonna use my sony for now. Yes still have the remote.
  3. 2nd Yamaha player arrived. will not read the discs. reads "no disc" with it loaded with discs. no exchanges this time. getting a refund. ill continue looking for a Marantz sa8004 or 05 or an other brand new Yamaha 600 else where. thanks guys
  4. Valve Arts are a nice sounding tube on the affordable side as well. I used the 6ca7 a while back and they had a long life.
  5. didn't notice it rattle at all. the door would just keep opening and most commands did nothing. didn't see any signs of abuse on the box it was in.
  6. The yamaha c600 arrived jammed up. Gonna send me another. Have to wait another wk or so to audition.
  7. Well, the yamaha c600 showed up yesterday. Haven't spent but maybe 10 minutes with it. Cant get it to operate. Loaded some cd's in it, but can't get them to play. Door keeps popping out . have to have more time to figure out what i'm doing wrong.
  8. if I do, I will try .350 just to see.
  9. Listening now. I rebias kt77 to .40 from the .45 and i think there is a small improvement in sound. Better sound stage to me. Power transformer is now hot again and the output trans is a few degrees warmer. Sounds good to my ears. Listening to neil young freedom. What a great recording
  10. Listening now. I rebias kt77 to .40 from the .45 and i think there is a small improvement in sound. Better sound stage to me. Power transformer is now hot again and the output trans is a few degrees warmer. Sounds good to my ears.
  11. Wasn't sure,but i didn't think it sounded as good at .45 vs .40 and now the transformers don't get hot like it used to. Not sure if the bias settings could cause the issue.
  12. Been moving cd's around in the sony changer and the problem is with the cd's not the player. Could use a cleaning im sure anyway. Its be going since 2004 05? New yamaha will be here thru.
  13. Ok. Now i understand. Thanks for the lincs
  14. Ok, had them at .40 and reset the .450 and now power and output transformers run warm. Used to run hot. Would this be normal? Maybe amp is taking a dump?
  15. when do you guys like to bias your kt77's at? I have 470v at the plate.
  16. Ok, i will try that before it goes up for sale
  17. Thats my thought as well, but it has always been finicky with some discs. It is getting worse. Who fixes them?
  18. My modded changer has a super clock as one of the mods, what is a super clock?
  19. Hey thanks. Not sure whats wrong with the c333es not reading all the discs, maybe just old discs? I think i might just throw it up on ebay
  20. I found this amp on another site for $335+$100 to ship. Better than ebay. Makes me even more tempted.
  21. well I missed out on the Yamaha cdc600bl on ebay. it went for$ 252 and I only bid til $235. I found another factory refurbished cdc600bl on the web for $230 shipped. I ordered it as I think the sony c333es is on its way out. was using it yesterday and it would just quit reading cd's while playing. thanks for all the help guys. hope the Yamaha is better than the sony.
  22. yes, the mod told advised me to place posts in the proper places. sorry.
  23. Anyone have any experience with this tube amp? Reviews have been very good from what I read. Would it drive cornwalls to 90db at 10'? thanks
