However, from now, I think it would be better to contact you by the private ways pointed on the website, at the proper time. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098337119765190876.post-19100529082680349542017-06-18T17:59:02.445+02:002017-06-18T17:59:02.445+02:00Hi!

Only if a manufacturer has a suitable transformer for the task at hand it makes sense to talk about that. The same goes for the tubes. The two tubes you mention are very different. How they will 'complement' the output tube will also depend on the circuit. There is no such thing as a 'complementary' sound of tubes which is valid for all kinds of different circuits. You need to first determine the technical needs so that they match the headphone to be used and then select the input tubes according to the gain you need and the drive requirements of the output tubesVinylSavorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03255472557028244395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098337119765190876.post-1856663883532790242017-06-17T18:48:26.599+02:002017-06-17T18:48:26.599+02:00Thank you for your reply.

I was considering an "LampizaOr Golden Gate Headamp" but I do not really need a DAC - here come the Ogonowski idea (he uses that transformer).<br /><br />10Y (and 801A per extension) is my prefered output valve (between the ones I was exposed), and I really like the 6N6P/6H6P, what I also think could have good complimentary sound to 10Y.<br /><br />ECC40 is another one I liked a lot (I am aware of the base problem). The 816 is more a cosmetics thing, but as the 10Y need high voltage I thought it should match electrically.<br /><br />For reference, I usually like AN UK products.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098337119765190876.post-57785563754775564442017-06-17T09:23:03.084+02:002017-06-17T09:23:03.084+02:001 - no

Why this particular tube line up?VinylSavorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03255472557028244395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098337119765190876.post-24411365691219502222017-06-17T07:44:39.546+02:002017-06-17T07:44:39.546+02:00Dear Thomas,
