Shootout of Nos 6sn7 tubes @shkong78 It's actually a she, someone named Olga. It was a little odd that she asked me to send the tubes to an address in Delaware. I'll wait and see how it all plays out. | |
Jolida Fusion or Vincent SA-32 / hybrid comparison I owned a Jolida Fusion and it was noisy, one of the XLR connectors came loose, and if I remember right, it also made popping noises when changing inputs. In short, I don't think it was very well made and sound quality was not as good as other co... | |
Has anyone tried a rubberized coating on older Klipsch tweeters? I've always wanted to try some Quartets out. The RF speakers aren't bad by any means. I still have a pair of RF-3 I in my home theater setup and also a pair of RF-5. I've owned RF-7, RF-3 II, and RF-82 II also. | |
Go Buy Some Music You Deadbeat Streamers! I didn't read the article. I listen to a lot of streamed music. It's often a gateway drug, leading to purchases of vinyl. I (used to) go to a lot of concerts. The entertainment industry seems to be particularly susceptible to the current state... | |
Has anyone tried a rubberized coating on older Klipsch tweeters? I have used Dynamat on the outside of the horns in some of my Klipsch Heresy speakers. I'm not sure I'd bother with the RF-3s.

Shootout of Nos 6sn7 tubes @shkong78 The seller of the tubes (the one in Russia that you recommended) has offered to replace the tubes and pay return shipping. So far, so good. I'll update once I receive the replacement tubes. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @drrsutliff Congrats on the Purpleheart! I have the Kiseki Blue NS and have been really happy with it. It outshines all my other carts and is a nice pairing with my new (to me) VPI Classic 3. | |

Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in For the most part, I've left the grills on my Super HL5 Plus, mostly because they are in a somewhat high traffic area in my living room. I keep the grills off my P3ESR, they are in pretty safe spots. I love the way both sets of speakers look wit... | |
Qobuz vs Tidal Ozzy, I use BubbleUpNP instead of the Lumin app. It's much better. It doesn't work with Bluesound devices however. I can sort my favorite albums on Qobuz by title, artist, or date (ascending or descending). I can also search them. | |

What are you streaming tonight? Patricia Barber - Mythologies, Qobuz | |
