No i dont remember anything

[–] ccunix@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I have 7 of them in the guitar amplifier next to my desk.

Okay now that’s just cursed

Looks like an amplifier with a tube buffer

Oh, okay that's sick. I didn't know you could get motherboards with that

That was one of, if not the only one ever made. It was in the 90's. Notice the PCI and AGP slots.It was also terrible, the valve was prone to interference from the board, and valves make heat, the enemey of computers.

It's just better to have an outboard DAC/amp, which of course could be a tube amp, if that's your jam.

I have friends who roll tubes in their preamps, on otherwise modern sound systems, so yes, I remember yesterday when I was at a friends house.

[–] Nouvellalia@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Normally I'm not a fan of anything that indiscriminately colors the whole sound stage, but when that color is dripping-sexlicuously, I'm in.

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Sure. I'm looking at four of them from the couch

[–] Fermiverse@gehirneimer.de 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

mmh nice , two mono block amps?

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's a KAM Lumberjack guitar amplifier serving a Sovtek 4x10 cabinet.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I see that your child is a propane enthusiast.

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Ex child. We broke up

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 4 points 3 days ago

I bought a tube headphone amp recently. I kind of wish I had done more research because I didn't realize what a bitch quality tubes are to obtain now.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

They work a lot better if you straighten the pins..

[–] jobbies@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I am old and no, I haven't a fucking clue what those are.

[–] OldGrayDog@fedinsfw.app 3 points 3 days ago

You're not old then. I'm old and have had a multitude of different electronic equipment with different types of tubes in them. From radios to amps to TVs to oscilloscopes.

[–] Pudutr0n@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

are those terminator teeth?

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Yes. Next question.

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 days ago

I really thought vacuum tubes from the back of a TV would explode if I threw them at the back of the garage. I unsuccessfully applied this logic to many areas of early life.

[–] RobotToaster@mander.xyz 1 points 3 days ago

Thermionic valves. Never used them personally but I know what they are

[–] SirSamuel@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago

Man, I haven't seen one of those since the last night I spent with your mom
