Just stumbled onto this thread. Worked on several of the units in question back in the day when I was a tech at Snipe Electronics.. These had the vaunted and now highly sought after CK722 transistors in the front end. Next best thing to having a vaccum tube in there. The high transformer quality fou...

if you have a multimeter, you can just measure the resistance of the speaker connections. quote] This is not correct- this will measure the reistance but not the impedence. They are not the same even though they have the same units (ohms). Resistance is a DC measurement, impedance is an AC or signa...

I have 2 77DX's and a Fathead. The Fathead's are excellent for the money and capable of some great sounding tracks. But the 77DX's with the right preamp and proper placement can be magic. Preamp and placement are absolutely key though. They generally like to be a little (and sometimes a lot) further...

It really depends on the sound you are looking for, what turns ratio you need, etc. When I want a very clean transparent sound (which some might argue can't be had when using a transofrmer) I like to use Jensen. Cinemag and Lundahl seem to have just a little more color (although some of the Lundahls...

I had a pair of 4310's for a long time (wish I still had them). They have excellent mid range transparency (some of the best I have heard). There is a mid bass bump if memory serves correctly that you need to be careful of when mixing. And the tweeters can get a little on the harsh side but using a ...

I actually once got all snappy with a co-worker that called me an audiophile. "NO! I am an audio engineer!" Then I ruffled my cape and stomped out of the room. Even though I have spent considerable time designing, building repairing and modifiying high performance audio gear (including recording ge...

There are audiophiles and then there are audiophiles. There is a certain segment of audiophiles that carry things too far. But there is another subset of these people that know and understand audio far more deeply than most recording engineers (some of them are recording engineers) and really should...
