Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time?
I'm the same way, I usually research stuff til it's discontinued.     I asked him to quote me on a few different wood finishes.   Ultimately I may just go with Macassar Ebony.     I am super indecisive so getting as far as brand and model was hal... 
Why do almost all women today hate home audio?
1111art,  I totally identify with you.   My daughter is the same age and her BF , technically fiance was over with her recently.   My daughter grew up with all kinds of gear coming in and out of the house so she's used to it , but he was shocked w... 
Why do almost all women today hate home audio?
My lady loves music but she has hearing loss so my gear is kind of lost on her.   I am often at her place because it is close to my work.   She has a boom box that is always playing something.   That's her Hi Fi rig.  She has a diverse taste in mu...

Thanks Corelli,  I’m still hung up on what finish but it will be awesome no matter what I choose.   Problem is when I look at his gallery and instagram pics I can’t decide.    I’m terribly indecisive.  Can’t go wrong, all of his speakers look grea...

Don't sell your tube amps
Fortunately my amp uses driver tubes that are not too popular and easy to obtain.  I have about 15 different NOS pairs on deck.   A dozen or so NOS 5r4gy  Rectifiers,  and a back up pair of WE 300b.   I have 3 sets of tubes for my Quicksilvers so...
