Hi out there. Just tried out the Ge 5751's triple mica black plates. Very nice balanced sound but I still prefer the Sylvanias better. I'm in the market of improving some of my cable and was wondering where I should start, IC's, speaker or PC? My budget would probably be around two to three hundred. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions?
Also through my experiments I found that the Jolida seems to give off a lot of noise. To explain further I usually do noise floor test by putting my amp full blast with nothing playing to here the noise floor. I found a rough sounding hiss. So what I did is turn off the Jolida and did the same thing and found the hiss was gone. Then I turned on the the Jolida (turning the volume always to 0 before any changes) and found the hiss wasn't there. So I thought maybe it was gone. UNTIL I put a cd in it and once it read the cd the hiss was back. I've tried this with numerous cd's and also different tubes, same hiss. I was wondering if anyone else found this to be and is there any way to remedy this... Thanks JohnnyP.
