Lon, putting in the Mundorf Supremes wasn't as easy as the cheapo resistors Bob sent. Since I use bananas for the speakers I sort of stuck the wires in, after appropriate bends, going up for the top post and down for the bottom post, then tightening. The resistor itself is off to the side. Is this how you installed yours?
Syd, as you can see, I decided not to try the 70's tubes and go straight to the 60's. So far they seem to be doing everything right without objectionable qualities. If they improve from here, I'll be a happy camper. I'm in the middle of another ebay vinyl buy and once done, I have another retail buy I've been working on for several days, to finish up. Lots of new vinyl, if not new music, coming soon. This morning I've been listening to some possible LPs on spotify with the Taboo MK IV, Zu Audio Soul speaker combo...it always amazes me how good it sounds. This album on now. Mark.
