The HK citation II is not an amp that is readily modifiable into a 
class A design.  (I'm actually just going by what I know of it's 
output rating.)  The B+ on the output tubes is high enough that the 
plates would be way over their dissipation ratings if run class A.  
(If run in that fashion, it would be no wonder if a tube, KT88 or 
otherwise exploded as someone suggested to you.)  Furthermore, the 
Power transformer is not capable of putting out the kind of current 
necessary to run the amp class A.

The citation II is a favorite with modifiers because of it's highly 
regarded transformers.  Many suggested circuit suggestions are 
floating around.  Try to snag one of those.  MFA used to build it's 
amps using the citation transformers.

As for the difference between 6550s and KT88s, I suspect that the 
origin of the tube is more important than the name on it.  Old stock 
British and American tubes tend to be better than what is made now a 
days, though the situation is improving.

Hope this helps!

I had to comment on the above statement - It sort of put Mark's post in a 
bad light for me (no flame, just my personal feeling).  Spending a lot of 
money on audio components may provide some instant gratification but in 
the long run I don't see how it can be any guarantee of satisfaction (i 
guess it might be for some people).

I know Mark qualified his statement with:
>This only applies for the best eqipment that you
>can hear the difference in. If you can't hear the difference between a
>Sears all in one 150.oo Special and a 4000.oo super system. Don't spend
>the money!

But ... I think a more appropriate guideline would be (IMHO)... Purchase 
the best sounding equipment within your budget.   Well, that seems pretty 
obvious - at least if your primary consideration is sound quality.  Of 
course reliability, features, asthetics, etc ... are considerations but i 
assume most high-enders are concerned first with how a product sounds.  

I think it's bad advice to tell someone who is getting in to high-end to 
just spend as much as you can afford to (unless you can't tell the 
difference).  I think it would be better to stress finding a good dealer, 
listening and then home auditioning.  Then buy the most enjoyable 
components you have found that are within your budget - they may or may 
not be the most expesive products you auditioned.

I don't mean to be critical of Mark's post, but to me it seemed to stress 
the wrong things.  I think we know what we can afford to spend.  What's 
tricky is finding the most satisfying combination of components below this 
price point - this requires listening.

I might add that my system is by no means high-end (although within its 
limitations - i find it musicaly satisfying).  I am slowly collecting my 
thoughts on upgrading to some higher-fidelity equipment. 

Thanks for listening.

You should also consider CARDAS cable, specifically the Hex-Link. I am
running a pair of 20 foot leads from my ARC preamp to my Threshold
amplifier and I am truly satisfied. These cables are extremely neutral in
tonal characteristic, and have first rate quality construction. Heck, I
believe they come with a lifetime warranty.

p.s. Prior to the CARDAS Hex-link, I must have experimented with at least a
dozen other brands including Kimber and AudioQuest, and the only other
interconnects to come close to the CARDAS was SilTech.

Have you heard them?  I have, at a dealer's and at friend's homes.  The
report is accurate, IMHO.  Linaeum speakers use a unique mid/hi driver 
different (to my ears) than anything else I've heard.  They are worth

I use the ROTEL 855 CD player mostly for headphone listening, 
both because i don't want to be bothered and my speakers are 
not great ones. But because the Rotel DOESN'T have a headphone 
out, i use the headphone jack of my Sherwood receiver. The
ridiculous setting was from my naive idea to get a high-end 
sound without being burned out. When my old amp(bought cheap 
used) broke down, i bought that Sherwood receiver, thinking 
that i mostly use headphones anyway, why push myself so hard 
to buy expensive amps? But i recently realized that i am not 
getting the real sound from the Rotel through the Sherwood's 
headphone jack either. So I either upgrade my system around 
the Rotel, OR let the Rotel go and get a reasonable CD player 
which has a good headphone out, better than Sherwood's of course. 
I've decided NOT to go the former. Have to resist it!

 I guess i could ask $260, right? But i'll seriously consider
offers around $240. I'll take care of shipping. Bought around August 
1991. Still under 5 year Warranty. With the original package.

  Also, i would appreciate any suggestions on CD players around
$300. Remember i use the headphone output very often.

Hi,
Over winter break, I am going to audition several speakers. I was wondering
if anyone could suggest reputable high-end dealers in the Philadelphia
area.

I have received recommendations for Savant Audio and Woodbridge Stereo,
both in the Princeton, NJ area. I have also heard that Soundex and Sound
Service are not good. Any other places to go?

I want to audition:
Vandersteen 1b
PSB 500
Snell J/III
Paradigm 9SE mk.II
Legacy Satellite
NEAR 10M and 30M
Tannoy 607

I know Sassafras does not carry any of these.. otherwise I would probably
go there.

A while back I asked for comments about the Acurus A250 for use with
my B&W 801's.  I received many comments/recommendations and I would
like to thank those who responded.

No one responded with a dislike for the Acurus (two people own it
and very much like it).  Two people tried it and preferred/own the Aragon
4004 (better bass control, image, transparency, etc.).

A couple of those who responded suggested I listen to Krell, Rowland, ML
and Bryston.  If I could afford a Krell (even used) or an ML I would
audition them, but I can't afford them at this time.

Due to the high praise for the Aragon 4004 I contacted Mondial and talked
with Anthony Federici (only praise for the way I was greeted) and he gave
me the name and phone number of his nearest Aragon rep. to request a loan
of the 4004 for in home use.  The rep. is 70 miles from my home, but he
brought the Amp down to the Acurus dealer in my area (10 miles from me)
and left it for me to demo.  I still have the amp at home waiting for
mine to arrive.  Yes, I liked the 4004 better than the Acurus in my
system and decided that the extra expense was worth it.  This is one
company (Mondial) IMHO that has a great respect for their customers.

I now have TWO more questions (both controversial):

Speaker Cables:
I currently use Kimber KC-1 interconnects throughout my system with
Kimber 8TC bi-wired to the speakers.  Question: What do you other
Aragon/801/802 users use as speaker cable?

CD players:
I currently have a Pioneer Elite CLD-95 combi-player (as I have mentioned
before I am also heavily into video) and use it as my CD player.  It has
dual 20 bit DAC's and is not the run of the mill pioneer product.  I am
considering purchasing a dedicated CD player.  Any comments about the
sound of the CLD-95 compared to hi-end players?  How about the new
Sony 779ES? I was considering an outboard DAC with my CLD-95 but it
has only a TOSLINK output so I am not sure if its worth the expense.

I have really enjoyed this 'net' and have learned a lot from you folks.
Thanks.  Don

Hello fellow QUAD-owners!

	I'm in the market for a new and hopefully better amp for
my QUAD ESL63:s. The easy way out is of course to use QUAD:s own
405  or  606,  but it would be nice to hear of any good sounding
alternatives. I  suppose electrastatic loudspeakers are somewhat
hard on  the amp,  so the  normal amp-of-the-month won't do, or?
	My current amplifier (a swedish thing called Sentec PA8,
a 70W design from the days when Matti Ottala was king.) sound very
harsh at medium-to-high levels, and runs very easy into clipping.
I have not heard the speakers with descent amplification, to be
honest, but I suppose they can do alot better than with my amp.

So: 

If you use the 63:s, what amp are you using? Do you like it?

I aquired a pair of EICO HF20s this weekend for a price that i couldn't pass
up, $5 each.  I seem to recall that these had somewhat good iron.  The 
amp looks somewhat like the Heath W5M.  There are many similarities between 
the amps internally as well.  They both use a "Williamson" driver stage, and 
they both use 6L6GCs for outputs.  The HF20 has a preamp integrated though.  
This is nice since that gives more headroom in the power supply, not much, 
if one doesn't use the preamp.
What i'm wondering is what sound might i expect to get from these transformers
if i upgraded the dirver stage?

For this price you've got an all tube system that's going to blow your
socks away.  I've audionned the Dahlquist vs the Mirage and the Snell
and I found that the DQ's were more open, more detailed, more clear and
more pleasant. In short they were better in every field; the Mirage
were the least good of the 3.  Conrad & Johnson doesn't need to be
presented: I believe they have the best tube stuff under $2000. You may
also want to consider a VTL amp if you want to have a (very small)
improvment in the bass.  The Sonograph is a killer CD, and you would
have to spend significantly more money to get any thing better with a
separate transport and D/A. In that case my choice would be an Audio
Alchemy transport coupled with a PS digital link D/A.  Any good
interconnects will do. My favorite are the Maestro's. Same for the
speaker cables.  Try Steely Dan "Gaucho" master recording or Cowboy
junkies "Trinity session" at medium to high volume on this system and
ENJOY THE MUSIC.

For that money you system will sound like a $15,000 system. I've heard
even more expensive stuff not sounding quite as good.

Can anyone recommend a source for high value toridal coils for building
passive EQ/crossover circuits? Some applications can use coils up into the
tens of Henries range but smaller coils in the millihenry range are useful
for certain projects also.
 
Most of the coils I have seen in the usual catalogs are small value RF chokes
with high DCR and no Q at audio frequencies.
 
Any suggestions appreciated
