What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first?
@mtbiker29 ....Another day, another Gordian Knot to apply KISS....but no implication of your mental status. *S* Mine, yes.  Acceptable; I've no dog in this show.... Approximately, where do you live?  US flag out the window....'K, somewhere in th... 
Can anyone identify these speakers?
@uncledemp  Agreed.  Smells of CHAOS, fer chure... Certainly Has An Obtuse Solution. Get out the car battery, the prods, the steel chair, and the harness....🤪 Find out whose bottom is behind this....whatever it is.....🙄

@grislybutter ....amazing how a lot of things are better in the dark.... ;) The lights' coming on is when "Should I stay or should I go...." *L* @mofojo, well...I've had the varied pleasure of running into a lot of bipeds in this existential ban... 
Why is solid state more popular when tubes are better?
@wolf_garcia : ..serious pricey horn systems are generally powered by pricey tube amps.  Good point and observation....👍 I've a pair of vintage Utah horns with their matching woofers that are driven with an ss amp and would agree they'd 'pref...

Why is solid state more popular when tubes are better?
@skippytate ...Thanks, Mike...*fist bump*G* This whole premise (ss v. tube) has been dis-cussed at into the ground ad absurdum with the same dame finality in ones’ lap... You’re either ss’d....or tube’d. Some ’X-over’, but not lots... I grew up... 
I NEED A 16 INCH CORK TURNTABLE MAT
....and I’ve got some stuff laying about that’s been underfoot long enough to be gotten ’out of the way’ and needs to be ’put to ’grander purpose’ (if you drift my gets)....

Ahem....*clears keys v. throat, which y'all wouldn't hear anyway...* A little virtual demo....*s* I have 2 stakes at hand, and a large primitive mallet in hand.  The ss and tube entities are trussed, unable to escape. *Drives stakes into both..... 
Need advice on what to purchase to hold 1TB of music and connect to my new Innuos Pulsar.
Why only 1TB? If you're going to go through the routine of setting it in place, I'd opt for 2; better 5. As per Devo, "Duty Now, For the Future"... And TB drives and SSD prices continue to drop....  
Would a real butcher block be going to far?
1" thick x 13" stone slabs on 2x6 framing with 4x6 posts on a concrete floor. ’Bout 6’ long, and I’d like to move it about 12" ’length-wise’. However, I’d have to take everything off of it. Remove the shelves (2); move frame. Reverse the prior...
