I wish I had the courage to ask. My contractor and I are wearing a bit thin with each other due to his broken promise of completion by Thanksgiving.Granted he did not specify which Thanksgiving (2004?).Images at SLOG will be posted when the mess i... 
Buggtussel speakers: a "sleeper" hi- end spker?
I like "Bent Fork," wonder what would have happened if you had been sleeping in another spot on that bus? Bent Fork Speakers, kind of has a nice ring to it. Must admit though that I like Blair Audio best of all. It's a shame that others didn't lik... 
Calling all tube heads
What tube type, 6922? Are the Amperex you plan on putting in USA, Dutch or other? What sound are you looking for? What tubes previously ran in the ARC and what did you like and dislike? 
Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope?
Damn it Gumby, if you are trying to make the rest of us jealous, it's working.At least now I know how you came by your moniker.

"Would you please ask visitors to stop fingering my grill cloth, they could poke out a membrane.""Sure I crackle every so often. If you had over ten thousand volts running across your face you would crackle too." "No lady, I am a pair of high end ... 
labratory tube amplifiers / wolcot amps
The best solution would be to call Hank Wolcott himself. He is friendly and knowledgeable and based on the numerous conversations I have had with him, he seems to remember the details of all his projects.What most people do not know, The Bureau of...

Buggtussel speakers: a "sleeper" hi- end spker?
No Cornfed they cannot get them from the factory as they are on strike. Problem is there are SCABS that want to take over and continue production in spite of pickers. 
Bi-Wiring using 2 sets of cables; have a question.
I would run it in the traditional way, seems more stable and pure to my way of thinking, although I have no proof or testing to back up my assumption. I don't know which speakers you are planning to wire this way, but I can tell you that two sets ... 
Buggtussel speakers: a "sleeper" hi- end spker?
I thought Maxgain was pretty funny. The builder of these speakers had to know this was going to lead to trouble. Otherwise why would there be a beautiful girl named Pussy Galore in the James Bond film? Same general idea, both are bound to solicit ... 
The Politicians Are Getting Involved - Stop Them
Killerpiglet, Do you know the difference between a Catfish and a Congressman?One is a bottom dwelling scum sucker..........the other just a harmless fish. 
MUSIC THAT CHANGED YOUR LIFE
Clueless, did it change your life because there is a good photograph of Britney around for you to stare at? 
The Politicians Are Getting Involved - Stop Them
I say we all pitch in together and buy every one of those politicians a pair of Bose speakers. They will lose all interest in music and legislation surrounding same, or soon become deaf, whereupon they will be unable to conduct their dirty business. 
Nomatics?
