| Dennis Had FIRE 300 B tube SET @isaacc7 A very well written and well informed post I've enjoyed Cary gear from the Dennis Had era and I have no doubt his current amps sound good paired with appropriate speakers. | |
| JBL 4367 = Sleep Denervation It's funny in this thread I just saw and commented on the systems of @jheppe815 @ditusa and @james633 well done gentlemen one and all. 😎 | |
| Old stock power cords and SMTPs I usually just keep old stock cords around for a rainy day btw what's a STMP? | |
| A fine realization Dan congratulations man a hifi that makes your ears smile is what it's all about. Cheers! | |
| Why Can't Modern Tube Manufacturers Make a Proper Tube? Noromance nailed it lots of the materials and processes used to make tubes back in the day are illegal now and horrible for the environment. There's no going back for very good reason. | |

| KT-77 vs. KT-66 @hilde45 I am still a bit baffled by this he says not to use EL34s but you can use KT66 and 6L6 but also KT88s and KT150s? | |
| The mistake armchair speaker snobs make too often @erik_squires I still don't get it why would it be cheaper to make your own drivers vs buying them? And if it's so much cheaper why don't more speaker makers do it? I think its likely more expensive at least until you've amortized your startup cos... | |
