hi all
i have a passion for electronics since i was a kid. Understanding them is something else! My job is repairing TV, video, amps, computers etc.... Never went to school for that but i can make a living out of it. The most important in repair is practical experience.
Since i’m 43 and in electronics for 40 years 😉 ...
Respect for well-build amplifiers brought me here and the next project is an Aleph-x...i hope.
Thanks everyone for the great knowledge that’s spread trough this forum.

I am alive & like amplifiers, too

hello, netlist

hope you and me can become friends - and stay friends 😉

You will notice that I am a living creature (made by Creation)
I don't undress my personality, just to fit in, in any place.
Take me as I am - or I resign .....

Hope you like :bullseye: SOLID STATE :bullseye: transistor amplifiers.

It is dangerous stating with them TUBES 😀

You might never get out of that "TUBE-territory" again
if you go in ......


/halo - wishes you happy & interesting hours at Worlds (for the moment) best Audio Forum 😉
 
Solid tubes

halojoy

Thanks for the king reply. Both solid state and tubes have their advantage. For me the final sound is the most important. I have an old Philips radio from 1959 (with tube of course) who has such a nice sound that i'm sometimes dancing in my workplace when i listen to it. I also own nice big B&W800's with a nice DIYamp, but sometimes the sound of that old radio gives me more shivers…

Old Tube radio... woow
That is one of my wishes. I must go to some auctions
this summer to come - and buy me a bargain old tube radio.

When I was little boy, I was turning on that radio we had
on LV and shortwave. It was really fascinating.
To hear those voices in foreign languages.

I miss that. It took some time before the green Cat-eye was
telling that radio was warm.

/halo - getting nostalgic
 
Welcome Netlist,

if I could develop a passion for cricket, I would buy a valve radio as Test Match Special should only be heard on radios that claim to receive stations like Hilversum, Home, and Luxembourg. Unfortunately, I find cricket boring, so I listen to Radio 3 on my B&O transistor radio.

Perhaps we can convert you to valves? Or vinyl?
