Warning: possible boring content 😉 Revolver is without a doubt my favorite Beatles album for as long as I can remember. My mom bought me this vinyl when I was barely 12 years old and for many years I have been buying reissues, remasters, rare copies... Forget all songs and go to "Tomorrow never Knows", turn up the volume on your Blue Hawaii and accommodate your 007... Ringo's drums sound brutal!!!!! Phil Collins also has a very good version on his Face Value album from 1981.

Thanks for the suggestens. It turned out to be this… Two unsoldered pads inside amplifier to the right. The amplifier has been working all right for a couple of months, until now. Luckily, I noticed the two missing pads. No bad apple, just a poor soldering guy.

Dropped the lake house car at the shop and had some time to kill, so I entered Willie's Rear... And I did like it.

Fish & Chips Sans any Willie or Rear, But we did like it.

Probably those famous still life motion blurs.

Yeah, a little waist of pixels if you smear them around like that.

First 200MP Samsung sensor photo posted, for future Motorola phone, shot in 50MP mode, and "most impressive when viewed at less than 100%." Some potential, maybe. https://petapixel.com/2022/07/14/the-first-photo-taken-with-motorolas-upcoming-200mp-smartphone-camera/

Its probably a spilt board.

And who doesn't like a Cosey Fanni.

Got a 'Hot' day? - do a little Bossa Nova Big Band Bossa Nova Stan Getz 1962 https://album.link/i/1469584558 Its only 33 minutes long - so why not the entire album sample? (YouTube compression does not help the sound vs TIDAL)

Thanks to the great work from @Mirko and advice from @kevin gilmore we just finished retrofitting the GS-X MK2's power supply with a custom made GRLV. I haven't had the time to really sit down and listen to it but first impressions that the amp is quite a bit smoother and more detailed now. 😃

drive for the sr007a mk2. I'm sorry I cant comment of the x9000s but if they have simular drive requirements to the sr007mk2 then they are going to sound awful with an underpowered energizer.... I ran the sr007mk2 (very power hungry) on srm006t mk2 - (one weak 6cg7 per channel) and the result was awful, muddy bass that did not get louder as you increased the volume - it just got even more muddy and indistinct. No bass detail no bass extension, poor macro and micro dynamics overall a very unsatisfying sound experience with jazz and classical music. Soundstage lacked air and it was impossible to tell what magic the sr007 would provide when driven properly. Tube rolling did little to help since the problem was lack of drive and all the same design tubes had approximately the same drive. I could effect the treble changing tubes but the bass changed very little. Trying to "improve" the bass elsewhere did not work because the underpowered energizer just could not deliver the bass to the earspeaker anyway. In going to something with 2 EL34s per channel, fully regulated power supplies and constant current anode/cathode sink and sources like the T2 is necessary to get the best out of the 007s and is revelation in sound quality. regards James

You can use the goldenreference6D.zip and skip yourself the further hassle. It has been checked and built numerous times and is more than good enough.
