I feel bad for GenX'ers that missed out on the 60s and 70s.
 “ I Feel bad for Gen - X er’s “. It sounds more like “ I need to put you down, so I can feel good” . But you probably had to walk to school both ways uphill through the snow . I was Driving down Highway 99 last Thursday from Fresno to Kingsburg w... 
Bass sensation like a loud car system in home?
Go see Yngwie Malmsteen, then ask his crew what they do . Big wall of amps , and what feel like Butt Kickers . Also saw a Sarah McLachlan concert that had significant bass . I think they just had huge sub array across the front below the stage and... 
Power cord choice?
Well it looks like everyone missed the most important fact . Those are some REALLY NICE FISH ! My system is low powered tubes , Richard Gray conditioner, Morrow cords . After that was well listened to, I switched my 15 amp outlets to 20 amp medica... 
New to Integrated stereo tube amps
    Nice choice, I’m jealous. My comments don’t fully apply is I run different gear , but still low power tubes . My favorite 6L6 is the Winged C Svetlana ( not the current ones ) . I have a large collection of power tubes including NOS TUNG Sol 6... 
The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth.

@nonoise , I registered as a Democrat in 1975 when I turned 18. I’m not “ On A Side “. I was a Union member at 16. I get a union pension , a law enforcement pension and social security. I’m living off Democratic provided money . I think California...

@nonoise , Please stop the hate . I was the person that lived the life of turbulence . In the 80’s I was 6’1” and 230 lbs., took performance enhancing drugs and used stimulants and pain killers to help me go . I took a law enforcement job, and bec... 
HELP! I bought equipment drunk, don’t know anything.
   Ah the progression of the disease. If you wake up one morning in a strange place with two miss matched speakers , go to an impatient program .

“ I was God Smacked “. The last time I had this experience resulted in 4 fractured vertebrae and 2 broken ribs .  
Preamp tubes in power amps
   Rogue categorically recommends Mullard small tubes as an upgrade for their gear . My experience with Mullard tubes in this application tended to make my sound veiled as if a blanket was thrown over my system . I’ve tried nos Mullard , Seimens E... 
Millercarbon's Mega Moab Mod Meander
Mr. Miller , thanks for your thread . I love Porsches and I’m considering a pair of Tektons . My Porsche memories are only that of a race fan , but they were some fun times . Number 1 was watching Mark Donahue drive the Sunoco Porsche 917-30 at La... 
How far over the limit can I go
I have a different amp , but tubes none the less . About 2 years ago I got back into vinyl , so I put a fresh set of KT-120’s into my amp. ( auto bias ). The current ones had plenty of life , but after warming up the new ones, there was a noticeab...
