Glenn, it is great to see you back here and able to work on amps! I hope your health continues to hold steady.

I believe (and hope) Glenn is still around. I know Stavros speaks to him regularly but I haven't spoken to Stavros in several months. Glenn has had a lot going on in his life in additional to his health struggles. I just wish he could put a label on the box and ship it back to me.

I wish I could be involved in the discussion but Glenn has had my amp for 4 years now and I don't think I am ever getting it back. :disappointed:

The Horizon is a huge step up from the Pacific which is great as well. I traded by Pacific for an Horizon and am very pleased.

What is the best way to fix a loose tube base? The tube works fine but the base moves. I assume I should use an epoxy or silicone? Can someone recommend something?

I still follow the thread but I haven’t had my 300B for over 18 months now. :sweat:

A lot of those DHTs look like RCA/Cunningham 112A, 01As, etc. Those are really nice tubes and are very cheap. I use them in my DAC.

If I want to measure the amps and volts a 300B tube is pulling would I use a meter across the 2 heater (large) pins?

Anyone heard from Glenn recently? Just hoping his is doing ok.

Ahh!

Balanced power is still 120v. It just runs 60 in each direction without a neutral. The difference between 60 and -60 (so to speak) is 120.

New I think they are $10k. I got it used, deeply discounted. Some guy bought one and never used it. It weighs 450 lbs. Cost me $400 to have it shipped but it was a big bargain when you think about how much power conditioners cost.

Instead of using power conditioners I installed one of these which supplies power to any outlet in my house which has audio equipment. Equi=Tech 10WQ.

Darren, great job on this. Cables matter and they sound different in every system.
