Re: C3g Aikido Phono
Well, I may be wrong, but ceramic is generally used for RF as they have lower impedance than film for a given capacitance so better for HF.

Re: Nothing In Particular
Hmm, I think we may also have different definitions of what firm means. Though having adjustable dampers helps a lot.

Re: Nothing In Particular
Thanks Nick. The MX has a very good rep for handling on the road from what I read (As does the Boxster of course). Would love a Boxster but I think it would become wearing as a daily driver, the MX would be better in that respect. Maybe about the wearing side. Depends on age. Later one with pasm wo...

Re: Nothing In Particular
How does steering feel compare between them? The Mx is a bit faster to turn in, but the standard soft springs let it down as once its started turning it leans a lot (and I guess the extra weight up front adds to that). The Porsche is a lot more composed. They both let you know whats going on well e...

Re: OK…so I’m on wi’ summat
A layer of hash has been removed as it was last time. I have to ask. Did the layer of hash come back when you put the electrolytics back in last time? Yes, it was just a slight bit of fuzz around the treble. It's not a night and day difference with the motor runs in place but it's there nonetheless...

Re: Nothing In Particular
Well, the Boxster is faster overall, but the mx5 is higher geared, and the throttle response via the ME ECU is a lot more instant. I can see that the Boxster has some filtering in the system somewhere. The Boxster seems to encourage a more "smooth" driving style, while the mx5 seems to pre...

Re: Nothing In Particular
All good. Was at Croft. Well not all good still loads to work on. Almost got the Mx5 to where I wanted it. (Much cheaper to turn into what I want than the Boxster would be). Being driven around by someone who knows what he is doing puts a stake in the ground what the car will do. I doubt getting clo...

Re: GM70 Monoblocks’
Well I am not fighting for that valve . But a flat load line does wonders.

Re: GM70 Monoblocks’
I was thinking 200v 25ma but I agree more would be better.

Re: GM70 Monoblocks’
Why have you drawn a 6k load line for the interstage?

Re: GM70 Monoblocks’
Ok, so maybe el84 would be a better choice. Just wanted an excuse to mention E130L, I think its a great valve that no one seems to use.

Re: GM70 Monoblocks’
I haven't run the numbers, but I wonder if the el34 in pentode driving the interstage might give you extra gain and a simpler drive for the 6072a, so you might be able to miss the 5687. Also, el84 might do most of the work of a el34 as its only driving the gm70 grid instead of a loudspeaker. Also an...
