| Is it time in your hobby to build a speaker kit? I have to agree the DIY is a lot of fun and very rewarding sound wise. I just got into this maybe a year ago. I owned a pair of LSA standard monitors in a second system long ago and always thought they were very nice for there $1000 price, I repla... | |
| Considering switching to Tubes I bought a used Yaqin el34 amp to use for an office system. It sounded more like solid state than tube. I even put Mullard xf2 Blackburn plant el34's in it I had laying around which cost more than yaqin new, better but did nothing for me so I sold... | |

| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music If you can find synergy between your source, amp, speakers you will enjoy any type of music on your system. If not it will never sound right.
