sunnysal Posted April 1, 2001 Share Posted April 1, 2001 Due to the post-earthquake repairs my main system is now covered with sheets and inactive for a period of five to six weeks...I have taken the opportunity to send my Dynaco MKIV amps to the states for some upgrade work...New caps, better 1% resistors, better binding posts, etc. the most important change of all will be the mod to triode operation...halves the power but who needs more than 25-30 watts per channel with k-horns anyway! though I miss the listening (all listening now done with grado headphones in my bedroom) I am very anxious to hear my amps in triode mode! anyone out there have experience with taking these PP amps to Triode? regards, tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemcten Posted April 1, 2001 Share Posted April 1, 2001 I must agree with Mark and his comments about Dyna's in Triode mode. I too have a ST-70 running triode at about 12 wpc. It simply makes music on my Scala's. I had the mod done years ago using high quality parts,(caps,resistors,inputs,binding posts,etc). I have had many amps come and go in the last 6 years, but this is one little gem that is not going to get away from me. I can only imagine what your mono's are going to sound like on your K-horns. The anticipation must be killing you. I promise it will be worth the wait. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
