What is the science behind audiophile fuses?
@mitch2   Krell was using magnetic breakers over 30 years ago. I have a 20a breaker in my Krell ksa 300s, seems to work fine.  
Tube Sound With Equalization?
Space tech lab makes many different tube buffers, there is even one with a builtin super rectifier. I don’t own a space tech lab buffer, but I do own a preamp, dac, hybrid amp and super rectifier. The tube preamp made my big Krell amp I also own s... 
WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM?

Beware - FedEx Drivers are forging signatures for delivery confirmation
@wtyamamoto you are correct on the express drivers, a friend of mine worked directly for FedEx as an express driver. His job didn't seem that different from FedEx ground, other than he was working directly for FedEx.

@sns they are not all paid a low wage, I know a few different people that work for FEDEX and they make decent money. I guess it's just how greedy the subcontractor is.   
Replace tubes yearly?
@larryi you make a good point about tube testers, most testers also don't test the tubes at the same operating parameters that they will be used in.  
Replace tubes yearly?

@awboat I agree, I can't believe one post included UPS drivers don't get well compensated. I went to a Van Halen concert with my brother-in-law that worked for UPS and we seen a UPS truck go by, he said that guy was making well over 6 figures, and...

I think Danny could be a little more diplomatic and tell the positives about the speakers he is upgrading, obviously there aren't all negatives. He could praise the stuff that is done right and then go into what can be improved on.  
Replace tubes yearly?
