Schiit not that Good?
I have never been impressed with the Schiit stuff even when I consider the very reasonable prices. More of the same "giant killer" stuff we have been experiencing lately with Tekton in my opinion. 
How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing!
So going further West was a good idea?

Who is the hack? Did clearthink take his toys and go home?Stereo subs have always sounded superior to me.

taras22I agree that carefully selected furniture can help, but this is no substitute for good quality acoustic treatments. Most I build myself, but I did recently buy some of the best quality diffusors for a song and was very impressed. If you hav...

The quality of your ears, in relation to home stereo, is limited by the best system you have ever heard. Before you hear a system that is a revelation you dont really know what you are missing, nor how your home system compares. When respondents g... 
Buying on Audiogon
I love the line "well known in most of the world".  
Buying on Audiogon
Hey Schubert, thanks for making my past, present and future points. Have you bought the M-60s yet? 
Buying on Audiogon
Schubert was the guy that thought a manufacturer of an amp called the M-60 should be throttled because there happened to be a machine gun with the same model number. My guess is that he has numerous "triggers".  
Upgrade Speaker Cables or Interconnects
Power cable for digital, then I/Cs. Am not a fan of conditioners but I have excellent power and live in a rural area.  
JBL 250ti's or something new....
druunderwood,I suggest you read between the lines on this review. Pretty obvious this reviewer did not like these speakers. Vintage speakers dont compare to newer offerings IMO. 
NOS tube alternatives for Herron VTSP 3A r02
I should add that for a much lower cost you could try Amperex 6DJ8s. Not as long lived but similar in terms of sound. Could call Keith to see what he thinks about 6DJ8s. 
NOS tube alternatives for Herron VTSP 3A r02
Call Keith to find out which tube pairs are the most critical and then roll these. My favorite have always been the Amperex U.S. or Dutch made 6922s.  
Suggestions for higher efficiency speakers
You should pay attention to what atma-sphere has posted. Several friends and I conducted an experiment in which we compared a pair of parallel 300B SETs (18 watts/channel) to a VAC push-pull Phi 200, a Mastersound 32B amplifier and a pair of Atma-... 
Hidden Gems in Pre-Owned Solid State Power Amplifiers?
Adcom 535. 
Audio Note Kit 1
So the "sloth" comment was made specifically about the Audio Note or is this comment directed at all the 300B SET amps you have heard? Serious question with no malice!
