loose tubes

Thanks Dekay for enlightening me. Makes sense actually, at my next tube rolling frenzy I must try it out.

This is truly fascinating. Has anyone an explanation for this phaenomenon?

Did the same, Greg, never heard a difference, but continued to do so all the same at every tube roll...one never knows ..( perhaps I'm a compulsion neurotic after all )Cheers,

Greg, I think that it was C. G. Jung himself, who maintained, that although all humans must suffer, it was the neurotic who suffered about things "unreal". So you see, we are NOT neurotic, because our sufferings (expensive gear, reproachfull wives, bust budgets, scratchy LPs, snipers on ebay, when you've found that rare CC803 Telefunken for five bucks the pair, the list is endless) are REAL enough. We may be nuts, but that is fine, neurotic we are defenitely not.
Cheerio

Actually, come to think of it, I think I prefer loose women to loose tubes and with those you'd hardly need sandpaper and sometimes not even sheets and here you certainly will notice the difference. Does that make me a bad audiophile?!!!

Dekay,Nh-fi, in the Michael Percy Audio catalogue it says:

Super Premium Tube Sockets: Where only the very best in the world will do! Machined Teflon or epoxy impregnated wood laminate, 9 pin chassis mount, octal, UX4 and other types with removable gold plated machined phosphor bronze or silver plated brass contacts, CALL FOR $$

You'll find it on page 16 of the catalogue.
