Guest Anonymous Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 ] Smilin, Next week I'll be hooken you up with someone who may help you make some extra ducketts for more gear purchases. Everyone's been in NY this week with the rating agencies trying to get ours up. Things should settle down and we can do business (I hope). I think Chi-town would be a great city for us to invade. I'll give you a call Monday. I wish I could come up the 25th. Way too much going on with the GPs. I'm dealing with the POA issue so I got medicaid papers to go through, etc. I also have to pluck some of their CDs out a little early to pay bills. Luckily I convinced them to put all their money in my bank so I can avoid the early withdrawal penalties. PITA. Hate owing favors. Have fun. I'd love to meet all you guys in person. Some day. ---------------- Gary, Sorry your going thru all the sh** but, you are a GOOD man, father, grandson, and friend. You seem to be handling it well, I look forward to seeing you too and having a chance to put some FUN times in your life. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know, you have all my #'s. I look forward to putting something together next week and combining friendship with $$$$$ it is never a bad thing. Best wishes on all your craziness!

Night and day? Is it really that close to the Mark III's as I believe Smilin said in an earleir post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOSValves Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Its not a issue with volume maybe old Steve misunderstands me. In volume it has slightly more headroom but geez how loud do you need to get ?? The amp you have makes about 32 watts or so and the 272 makes about 38 watts on my scope the 6 watts isn't going to do all that much to overall volume. Its the mid range and upper volume clarity that will shine through ! Also the difference in output tubes and dual rectified power supply is huge. I would take a EL34 over a 7591 any day of the week in my book. The EL34 is the midrange king of the hill. The dual rectified PS give the amp headroom to make that 38 watts clean ! The Mark III's I'm comparing the 272 to are wired in Triode output and put out 30 watts but its 30 glorious watts. You both need to give up this SLP quest here !! Its not quanity its quality ! I rarely listen to music over maybe mid 90Db peaks but at time the comes out and yes I crank it way up 30 very clean watts does this just fine !

Craig ---------------- Maybe it was I who misunderstood Steve's post? Darn, do I need to keep my Adcom and Sansui SS? I was hoping to sell them and buy more tube gear someday. Hey, what can I say? I readily admit that I like to hear Rock and Roll extremely loud with thumping bass at when I have the luxury of being able to do so. Like this weekend. It's not too often that I get these opportunities anymore. Oh, and I have yet to hook my 299D to my CW's. They are in the garage waiting for me to sand and refinish them when I have some energy. I have only listened to it on the Heresy's. Maybe tomorrow I will lug the amp out to the garage and hook up the CW's and give them a listen.

We also need to have big balls bass, but I guess a sub with 2500 watts will take care of that I hope your ears don't bleed saturday night!!!before all the guys get to you you could be deaf I guess I will have my work cut out for me just to make you beg me to turn the volume down *****cat!!!

You're hilarious. What do you think? Maybe I should get a B-4 myself so I can blow my plumbing apart like you did? Didn't "The Who" regularly play in concert at like 104db?

We already talked about it. I figure that I will have the 272 in the 38wpc range and the MK III's in the 60wpc configuration. I am rather excited about hearing those beasts on my CW's.

For mid 90 DB's of SPL's there's no need for a 30 watter more likely that a 3 watter will have enough reserve for 100+ DB peaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Landau Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 with a 104 db speaker, most probably yes (depending on how far you sit from your speakers). an 8 watter will definitly do the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
