Should repaired equipment be stated in the ad??
I agree with Macrojack in that most people on this forum are overly picking about equipment purchased here. It is "used" which means just that! You can't expect it to be like new. Unfortunately, some folks just don't get that.As was stated when yo... 
fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones
Musicnoise, your theory does not apply here in highend audio.The only explanation is what you hear with your own ears!!Whether it can be explained scientifically, mathematically or otherwise means nothing if you can't hear a difference with your o... 
fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones
I'm with Dopogue here, prove it with statistics? The most ridiculous statement ever made for highend audio! You can't hear statistics nor can you hear specifications!In this hobby, in the final analysis, subjectivity and anecdotal is the rule. Its... 
Electro-Harmonix 6H30pi Gold vs Sovtek 6H30pi eb
In answer to your first question, I've not compared the electro harmonix's to the sovteks but I have compared them to the 6h30 dr's and they compare very favorably particularly when you consider price. The 6h30 dr's are better but not $250 a pair ...

Do you use tube dampers on the super tube?
I currently use the new herbie's halo tube dampers on my 6h30's(LS-25 mkII)and they do improve the sound. As you mentioned above, it is not a night and difference but it will be similar to what you experienced with the 6922's.As the gentleman stat... 
Burn in question
Volume level has nothing to do with burn-in. A continous signal going thru the wire is all that's necessary. So, yes, you can leave system on continually at low level. 
Power Cord Question
Darkeyes, for what its worth, you'll get the biggest bang for your buck with a good powercord, even more so than going to the next component upgrade.I would recommend you trying the fusion line. Their entry level cord is the predator($550 retail)b... 
Power Cord Question
I've tried some of the same powercords you have tried and yes you do have to let them breakin, at least 100 hrs.The BMC gold powercord was a definite improvement over stock powercords in my system but to really appreciate what powercords can do, y... 
Power Cord Question
A lot British companies make components with two prong iec connectors. They work perfectly fine with 3 prong powercords.I had a arcam cd player made that way and played it for 6yrs. without any problems. If your house is properly wired, all of you...
