Tubes-are they limited to the circuit used in?
Hi ther Ed;nice to exchange with another 5 owner. Good topic. Needing 16 of them suckers,as we do, I'll need a cosigner for the Mullards.---What's your "pin #" at the bank? Back to topic--I can't imagine exceeding the value of the amp--for tubes.-... 
Trigger Happy Negative Feedback
Somehow it does't seem right.I was always under the impression goods and money had to change hands for feedback. At that rate--well I won't go there. I've never left a negative for anybody;even tho I've had a few"not-as-described" transactions.--N... 
difference between chang lightspeed MK1 and MK2
I own a 1000. I have never seen one for sale here. It does wonders for my RPTV. No matter what the literature says;if you have a quality-power-hungry amp--don't plug it into the 1000.--Power conditioners improve as time moves on.-- Somehow;as a gu...

Best Power Cord
As the owner of several of the brands mentioned here, and a plethora of others, there is one constant I am aware of. 300 dollar cords don't compare to 2000 dollar ones.-- Not even 600 dollar ones do. Mix & match; that way this won't sound like... 
Opinions on the Bose 901
I would assume these would be great for surr.-- mounted up high. I had the original 901 back in the early 70's.I could lay on the floor and listen to the sound coming from all over the place within the room. I mean isn't that what dipoles do? At 9... 
Replace Speaker Drivers In Pairs...Or At All?
Sure one would want to replace both. If money is a big thing,just do the one. Break it in separately for 200/300 hrs. Then see how well they match. Of course if there is a mismatch, then you'll have to do the second one. Lacking the patience; I'd ...

Bear traps on either side of the wire should work.--Of course,I'm divorced--!! 
How long do you hold an item?
Good one Albert!! As far as holding something--It depends on whom you're dealing with. Unknown buyer??- About 10 sec.is fine.--Lots of feedback buyer/seller?? Longer for sure.I've been promised a MO that never came--or a paypal that never was post... 
Does it hurt when you sell at a loss?
I (so far) usually move up,so the pain is offset by the new toy. Sort of like if you have a head ache and then you stub your toe,severely; the head ache doesn't seem as bad. 
What is the best used tube checker out there for
