| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? @jbhiller Don't know why my @ didn't work on the last post... | |
| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? @jbhiller You’ve got to use some homebrew cables that are speaker level (spades, bare wire, or whatever) at one end and RCA at the other... use a multi-meter to check whether black or red is tied to ground at your SET output.

| New Gallo Strata's sound like tin-cans: break-in time problem? I don't really understand all the pro/con strata commentary in here.
