Re: Hagerman Cornet.....first impressions

Thanks for sharing your impressions.
I've got a classic Cornet, and like it, but haven't had much to compare it to..

My impressions on the Cornet:
Rolling the 12ax7's makes a big difference. I hated the Telefunkens.. sounded soft and mushy to me.. I'm using some Westinghouse branded 5751's for now, but have Sovtek LPS on the way, which many have recommended.

Do you have upgraded caps at all in this unit? Doing this almost makes it an entirely different preamp to my ears.. completely for the better.
