  1. has anyone compared the ones made in china and the states? not saying they are made here.
  2. I blew out my diaphragms on my horns in my Altecs and replaced them with the ones from china. is there much difference in the US models?
  3. Im in Houston not much service out here
  4. he knows I'm using 2A3s.
  5. From Craig at Eddie Current (moth) You need to measure the bias resistor to see what the bias voltage should read. The 45 tubes need about 36mA, so if the resistor is 1 ohm the meter should read 36mV. Make sure you have the correct tubes, I have not seen a 45 tube that looks like that. I don't understand what he's talking about!
  6. why am I only able to load one picture only?
  7. I will get the all tubes checked out Friday. Do you think the Amp is worth saving? if not I still can sent it back to the estate. I paid 1,100 for it. here's the deceased owner thread on the amp http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/moth-s45-arrives.1079/
  8. Here's from Craig at Eddie Current:All Moth amps had manuals with schematics. If you got the amp it should have been sent in a wooden crate with the manual. That amp is 17 years old and it is likely the electrolytic caps are dried out which would account for the buzz. I don’t have any documentation on the Moth amps, and don’t work on them.You need to measure the bias resistor to see what the bias voltage should read.

  9. What does grounding a RCA do? Here's a link to all the picture's: http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/moth-audio-45.791782/
  10. I can't find a schematic.
  11. no buzz when the when I pull the rectifier tube outs it have to be a ground
  12. buzz at all volumes with nothing connected. heres the buzz
