Congrats. Getting the Melz 6SL7s without hiss/hum and balanced is a luck of you. -
And as subs have their own amps they share the power from main amp and make it has more power for other ranges (theoretically).

Thanks Zed, i am following your and others earlier posts of 4 ohm taps and being on the 4ohm taps setting up the new SPs. Your recommended Fyne Audio F501 speakers and R8 are perfect combination. (still breaking in) -

Zed Zed said: It's just something else to think about. Read up on Rel sub-systems for more info, or PM me here as this is getting OT for this thread. I have posted this separately because the other post was long enough anyway, and if a Mod decides this post is too far OT, he can delete it without losing the other content which was on topic.  Thanks you so much for spending a lot of time and audio experience to help me to choose the speakers (work with R8). You read my mind with room size matter as 4mx5m is quite small. I ve read quite a lot discussion of fyne f502 and seems that they have rather strong bass for my room, I thinks of F501 instead. The standmounts and sub may be safer option as i dont think the dealer here have 3 months trial. It really is getting OT here so I all PM you, Again thanks for your help and support. -

Many thanks Xlr8or and Zed Zed for consulting on the Kef R3 and R8 matching. To make life easier I should look for other option. How about: Fyne Audio F502 (new) or Tannoy D500 (Vintage) or Tannoy Revolution XT 8F (New) Which i can buy here and within my budget (my room is 20 square meter (4x5). Thanks for your always great support. -

Hi All experts here, this seems quite easy to implement, any ideas on this (sound wise) please? https://www.facebook.com/groups/2590463257727776/?multi_permalinks=3626806107426814%2C3625467710893987%2C3614339695340122¬if_id=1613628675843026¬if_t=group_activity&ref=notif He wrote: "Under the hood. I replaced the coupling capacitors (silver ones in picture) between pre-amplifier and power stage, by high quality ones (two per channel). To me this was more of a diferrence than all the tube rolling I did. I'm finally completely happy with the sound." Thanks -

Thank you All, my always guru With that said, I may try it as I can get it here for 60$ a pair. How do these compare with SYLVANIA JAN CHS 6SN7GT VT-231 (80$ a pair here)? Have fun. -

Hi Wisker, Could you please take some pictures when you unpack the package so we all know how to repack it when in need (for moving around). Thanks
