I will start this off, I am using the Seductor amplifier. My Moreplay, it is using 6005A tubes instead of 6V6’s.

I use my Moreplay with a S.E.X. 3.0 and a pair of Klipsch RP-600m's as my office system. I enjoy being able to use multiple sources with the S.E.X. by using the Moreplay. I also really like how sweet the system sounds. Pretty amazing for a mere two watts!

45 Stereomour 1 and a Schitt Vidar.  Still using the stock 6V6's that came with it but there are some coke bottles waiting in the wings.

Hey guys this is my first post here!  I absolutely love tube amplifiers and ordered the more play and reduction 1.1 kits.  I am excited to learn about tube rolling and trying more tubes in the amplifier. When you reference coke bottle tubes, can I get a little more information about them? The code for example, what it would take to run one? Maybe a couple of pictures? Thank you!

A coke bottle shaped tube would be a 6V6G. 

In order to run one, you would pull the tubes out of the Moreplay that we provide and plug in the 6V6Gs.

I'm considering getting a Moreplay to front a pair of Quad II power amps. Would it be compatible, need adjustment or attenuators? Basically would it be a good choice? I'm in the UK and am currently using a slimline Rotel pre. It's not one of their high end models, an RC-850. Currently using Luxman L30 into my Klipsch Quartets. I'm BH family as I have a crack for my HD600's.

The Quad II spec is about right (570mV/15 watt). Should work well.

Thanks Paul. I'll see how the funds are. It will end up being rather more expensive by the time it gets to me in the UK as I found out with the Crack. No regrets with that though.
Is the Moreplay suffering from any delays at the moment?

At the moment we have power transformers and chassis panels in stock for Moreplay kits. The situation is dynamic because of the supply chain issues and the holidays. So it's hard to say for how long we will have stock on hand and how quickly the parts can be replenished. We are increasing our order quantities and lead times where we can to compensate.

Hopefully my order, taking advantage of your Black Friday price, has just gone in. I await a confirmation. Little glitch was my name, Deluk, wasn't recognised and I had to update my email address but all seemed to click through OK. If OK can you give a guess as to shipment date? Thanks.

Best I can tell you while we are in the middle of the biggest sale of the year is that we start shipping what we can as soon as we can. We ship all thru December as parts arrive and we are typically shipping the last of the BFCM orders in early January. I'll probably have a little better idea on Tuesday after the sale is complete.
