| How many monthly kilowatt hours, including hi-fi, do you use? It doesn't matter what kind of energy you are using in reality. It all comes to just bucks to spend whether it's solar panels or company provided electrical power. | |
| Surge protector The best remedy is NOT to listen to direct to wall purists and audio enthusiasts often contributing to discussions here. They are extremely delusional. There are may be X many reasons vs. just ONE safety you can't jeopardize. I have surges nearly ... | |

| Need to replace my Sonic Frontiers Power 3's If you get that kinda bill, Please IM me. I might be interested to purchase as-is. It should NOT be that high of a bill for a tube amp. It should be most-likely within $1k depending on parts. PCB can be re-ordered or fried part can be wired p2p... | |
