Tubes Asylum Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ |
|
Well I finally have gone completely mad, I purchased a used Cary Rocket 88 to go with my tube preamp (Rogue Magnum 99 with vintage 6sn7s). After running for a day I can say, I now understand what the rest of you loonies were going on about. CURSE YOU ALL! LOL!It's not bad enough that I have a large collection of vinyl, a cassette player and now I am into tubes, I have become the king old technology, ok maybe ArchDuke ;-). The next step is a set of horn speakers lol!
Anyway, thanks to all who have posted here, as the information has been very helpful.
