If done right, open baffles would look great. I just lack the necessary skills to build. These old vintage speakers look good though
The advantage of open baffles is space saved. My living room is rather crowed due to the size of the B&W DM-16 speakers. They stay as they were Dad's. Sound great though.
Mine too, zero noise from the amp a slight hum at the speakers but nothing to declare with the music playing.For what it's worth, zero hum/buzzing out of my Oldchen. Ever so slight hum from the speaker(s) but only with ear pressed directly against the driver. Completely unnoticeable when moving even 4 inches away. So far, really happy with this amp. I've never gone passed noon on the volume knob. Can I, or is that ill advised?
Do they all come wired in pentode? I thought this was a SET amp... Also, any idea if there's any global feedback?I believe that with the same component replacements this system has the potential to beat my main system, and for a lot less money. Its currently wired for pentode operation which with the Daytons has more volume than I'll ever want or need. Will rewire it sometime
