Damn... again. 😕

Hear are some results after ~ 450 hours using a used JJ E88cc tube, at ~5.85 filament volts.

The AC line voltage varies slightly, which I can adjust, so there is only a slight DC voltage variations,
but not enough to cause a problem. I can adjust the line voltage for exactly 5.58 filament volts at
measurement times. Military Grade Mills RL's A and B values remain stable since the dissipation 
is only ~0,7 watt dissipation vs 24 watt rating.

Filament                  5.85 volts                  5.85 volts

B+ voltage              142 volts                   141.7 volts
Plate A voltage        71.8 volts                   72.2 volts               
Plate B voltage        63.8 volts                   63.7 volts

Will continue to add hours, and will check in later.

9-28-2024   ~600 hours

Fil voltage                          5.85 volts

B+                                  141.2 volts
Plate A Voltage                 72.9 volts
Plate B Voltage                 64.3 volts

Voltage changed slightly but within 2%. Will continue.

Triode Wire Labs is proud to be on Stereophile's Recommended Components list again!!! A huge Thank You to Herb Reichert & Ken Micallef!!!






Triode Wire Labs Digital American II Digital AC cord: $549 up to 5'
The High Power Digital American power cord was reportedly designed for power amps, power regenerators, power conditioners, and power bars: a theme emerges. Nevertheless, HR began his time with Triode Wire's cord by using it with digital source components, including his Schiit Audio Yggdrasil D/A processor, and was impressed: "I was surprised to hear more even more vigor, more distinctly drawn images, and a lot more physicality." A few days later he reinstated the Schiit's own stock cord, but after playing only two CDs "became impatient" and went back to the Triode Wire Labs. That said, when he tried the Digital American with his Pass Labs solid state amp, he found the improvement less remarkable than with the more expensive AudioQuest Storm Tornado cord.

Congratulations, Pete! I sure love my HP Digital American II 👍

Congratulations!    The Audioquest edged out your cord, as it should for more than twice the price!
