| The issue of lowballing... What does that mean? Simple. The seller doesn't want to sell for a bargain price and doesn't want to deal with lowballers. So why don't you just respect his wishes and just move on. | |
| How to protect against burglary "Smith and Wesson etc type signs motivate, not discorage, thiefs."IMO, I don't think so. Thief's generally don't want confrontation. They want an easy, quick steal.Just make up some phony alarm signs and attach them to the front of your house. | |
| ZU CAMPFIRE CHOW DOWN You're not trying to get out of treating me to dinner are you (McDonalds, remember)? LOLI actually haven't hooked it into my Zu's yet. I have it on my "must do" list, before my son takes it away. I think I read somewhere that you can feed these De... | |
| ZU CAMPFIRE CHOW DOWN Warren,Listening to some Coltrane right now and on the laptop. Life couldn't be better. Anyway, if you're up to it, I'll cart my (sons soon to be when he moves into his condo) Forte Model 3 class A amp down when I visit you. | |

| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Phil,While were on the subject of KR tubes, have you heard the KR 845? And if so what is your opinion on the KR 845 vs. (my current) Shuguang 845B. What would I expect for the additional cost? Thanks | |
| How can do you extend the life of your tubes? Ghosthouse,My Hickok 539C does have provisions for a "Life Test". This setting reduces the filament voltage by 10%. In this setting the mutual conductance is not supposed to drop more than 20% compared to the "normal" setting. I'm no expert here, ... | |

| Another audio dealer bites the dust Tmsorosk, where do you live. I'm packing as we speak. | |
| Gone are the days of the great audition. I used Mapmans (number one) suggestion for all my gear except for speakers. I would be hesitant to buy (used) speakers that need to be shipped. Big time chances of shipping damage unless strapped to a pallet and freight used instead of ground. IMO... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Phil, you wrote "my first consideration is in slashing mechanical energy put into the floor, transmitted through it and into the rack or floor-mounted gear, affecting adjacent component performance. You might think, for example, that changing out ... | |
| Where Can I Get Custom Made Foam for Speaker Box? I use that spray foam often and will suggest to you, no warn you, not to use it. It gets on everything unless you are experienced with using it (even then it always seems to get on something). And like Swampwalker says, it always expands way more ... | |
