Ok, I'll go home now... Smell of the mitt and mowed grass, dragonflies clicking overhead, the smell of the creek, the worn path around the house from playing tag at dusk, the call of my Mother down the block for supper, mitt over the bat over my s...

Oh, 6ch, I didn't know that you could be a smart alleck too! :0) You know, 6ch, you'd better be careful, or you might, just might become, become a curmudgeon like me; like waking and looking in the mirror and there, there's a pumpkin on your head....

Good day 6ch :-)Detlof!! you cruelly draw me into this thread, knowing I can't possibly stop, and I purposely only came when there was a four day lapse, and only because your question was so good, and only because Ozfly said so good, and....Rub, r...

Oh, let me rub the bottle that is the recepticle of 6ch! I asked him and now he won't tell me, and I just, just...Answer...But wait for your response, Gregm.

Thanks, 6ch. Was asking detlof, but, yes, I would be interested to your answer (can it be in words...?)OK, I will bite...Detlof!! Ozfly, so good start, very smart, where are you? Nothing made you think? 
Black glass KenRad 6SN7s take the cake
Gunbei, YES! The increase in qualities is exactly that. I didn't say so because my experience with the Slv is less (I have 3 NOS matched pairs but once the KenRads went in, I didn't spend as much time with them as I normally would have) and, also,... 
Shawn Colvin anyone?
Saw Colvin @ ayr ago at Ravinia, the outdoor summer home of the CSO, here on the outskirts of Chicago. Very nice night. Started buying more after that - always a good sign. Other people hear and ask, who's that? Have a small 5 cut CD live that sou... 
MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em
Ha! Motdathird, gotcha. I take your MIT and raise you a Transparent.My God, I can't believe this thing is still going - but I am hearing a slight murmur...BTW, 6ch, nice answer. No-nature = Nature. I think we've come to the end of words (which is,... 
MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em
Hi Zaikesman! Yes, I know, I'm pestering 6ch, watching him make words while talking against them. He has thick skin, even though says has no skin. Spin, spin :0) (how dare he think he spins "me"!). Be patient with the foolish children...Zaike, sor...

Greg, you made my brain think hard. Thank you. Some of what you say are things I don't know, but I will try to answer.Yes, # 2 option above is correct. The evolutionary development of receptivity to beauty has been developing right along side the ... 
MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em
Yes, I know what you mean.But, in pointing, you have to be shrewd - like an Iroquois woodsman leaving no trace - which does necessarily make you attached. Words can be leading, but they can also lead (to where?).The only non-attachment that a Bodh... 
What's the deal with palladium??
Trelja, wonderful, thank you.You just ruined the hopes of many psuedo-scientists out there just dying to jump on the wire-is-a-hoax bandwagon and beat bwhite over the head with their borrowed rulers.. 
MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em
Oh 6ch, "I" finally pulled you into the world of words, or at least admitting it (although you were there all along).You know, I've always wondered about this Buddhist bias (lets call it) against thought (the basis of language/talking). If you sit... 
Black glass KenRad 6SN7s take the cake
Ken Rad Black glass discernibly better...Huge depth, expansive, quieter, low level detail more natural, harmonic decay improved, Homeric bass, even more organic while still clearer into depthfield without any increase in sterilty. Sounds very simi...

Thanks for the laugh, Subaru! Very funny.Does evolutionarily developed recognition of patterns in sound necessarily lead to (even though it may form the underlying matrix) to the receptivity to beauty that we presently experience. The former (pocr...
