@navyachts  interesting, I have purchased many items from Canada, had them shipped and never paid a duty on them but sshhh, don’t tell anyone! Glad you found a good deal.  
I am streaming , how can I play music when provider goes down.
That’s why I purchased a streamer that also allowed me to rip my cd’s. I can stream Tidal and also source my cd collection. I sold my cd transport since it was no longer needed.

Pee Wee Herman has passed away
Ha ha! Rest in peace Pee Wee.  
Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post?
@dekay What is a land line exactly? 🤣  
Speaker that are 'KEEPERS" for the long haul!!!
I have to agree with @mikekollar . I have the Legacy Audio Focus SE and see no reason to ever part with them. There are speakers that come to mind that I would like to try such as Von Schweikert and the Vandersteen Quattro CT but I doubt they woul... 
Reliable source for 6550WE tube - Audio Research Ref 6
Another lesser known source is Amplified Parts. They cater mostly to the musicians crowd but have lots of tubes.
