true confession

my brother was in town so he wanted to hear my new configuration. we had been out shooting that morning[ with ear protection of course] and very hot so i was not paying much attention. he listened for a few minutes and made some obligatory comments about how good it sounded then asked me a few probing questions about the image. i gave a very detailed explanation of what i thought i had achieved with my latest breakthrough mods and placement. after he headed back to kansas i walked thru the room and saw the mono light was on!!!! i guess when i handed him the remote one of us inadvertantly had hit the button. i called him and demanded he turn around and bactrack 50 miles to listen again. hahahah. anybody else got a story like this? i felt like a idiot....but he is used to humoring me. ha

Blowing a tube for a newbie, now THERE is a proper introduction to using tube gear.

I have a nice tube amp in my closet, hardly ever gets played now as I like my other amp better. Can't sell it, but I could give it away as a "here is great sound you bastard" to the right friend or relative... except that when tubes start to blow or drift, would they know what to do? It's not a gift if it's a chore.
