Thanks It is notability louder and clearer than my old solid state amp. Unfortunately I haven’t really been able to enjoy it fully because my wife is home due to the shut in. Apparently it also needs about 40-60 hours to break in.
One more note I nearly got a hernia carrying it in it’s 67 lbs.
^ top of the range integrated, a thing of beauty with the sound on a lights out. Just hope the valves last Mike, i presume they fixed the longevity issues earlier Valve Amp had.
That is indeed a gorgeous looking piece of kit.
Thanks.
You can definitely hear the difference without being an audiofile compared to my old simi-basic solid state integrated.
As for the tubes (valves) there supposed to last 5,000-10,000 hours.
Dang wouldn’t want to have to replace many of those.
Yeah that's one of the reasons I went for it.
There are a few youtube videos about the build quality.
It might seem mundane, but an updated replacement induction cooktop was in order - ordered it two days ago and had it installed today by a guy in mask, booties, gloves and overall surgical gown . . . installation contract stipulated 5m distance.
Works like a charm
I got some tubes... Very exciting...
Out with the new and in with the old...
Cycling should be banned!!!
I've just impullsed bought a shitload of beer.
^^^sexy valves Betty
^^^^trying to get excited about the cooktop Hatter. I will try again later!
The Japanese Battleship Yamato was the largest battleship in naval history.
Also the most heavily armed battleship ever constructed. The nippos meant business when it came to naval artillery. Bristling with guns like a marine echidna.
Even the main guns have small gun emplacements on top.
Those main guns are 18 inch. The largest guns in naval history and 2 inches bigger than the 16 inch guns on the Missouri and the Iowa. Each gun-barrel weighed 150 tonnes.
She was sent to Okinawa on a one way final kamikaze mission with orders to beach herself and defend the island until the last man.
But she was bombed and torpedoed by US carrier aircraft on the way and sank to the bottom of the ocean south of Kyushu 75 years ago last Monday.
The mushroom cloud from the magazine reached 6km altitude and could be seen from Kyushu 160km away.
Wow what a waste those Japanese didn't know when to quite.
Last week, my trusty and faithful plastic measuring jug I found had developed a crack and was f**ked. Into Lazada, and voila, decided to hedge my measuring needs with a set of Pyrex jugs, and a larger Pyrex roasting dish to boot. Looks like my Sundays in the kitchen are not going to end any time soon so may as well get geared up.
^ lovely, PAG.
^^^^ wasn't that ship, so fantastic, that the Japanese refused to let her enter any battles, when they finally sent her to one - she didn't even make it there. A magnificent battleship in the days of aircraft carriers was essentially useless!
Yes, I am wrong! just read up on it, 30 years I have thought this! the thought was put in my head about 30 years ago when I was on a offshore vessel that had 8 anchors + handling systems (165 lbs per chain link is all I remember) it was a big system, the chain lockers were 30' square tanks, anchors ~7 ton, the "rumour" was that they were from a WW11 battleship and had been retrofitted!
