first tubes

by domus413 on Getting Started

Description

I've just taken the plunge into the world of tubes and WOW!

so thrilled!

Everything was bought here on audiogon with all of your help.

I'm also using DH Labs and Cardas quadlink power cables.

Isoblocks under all the equipment, will save to upgrade with proper feet etc.

I can't stop listening to music!

any advice is appreciated. You all got me here!

oh yeah, I am on an extreme budget.

An "extreme budget" is an NAD C315BEE for $299.

I'd say you're on a bigger budget than most, and you put together a very nice system that's well above the entry level. Love the PrimaLuna stuff...it should serve you well for many years to come.
