| What made you change to a 6SN7 preamp? @atmasphere when you dig into it you find out that the variables I mentioned above were uncontrolled in the comparison. Your understanding of these variables, and your cautious way of taking variables into account when you make comments, mak... | |
| What made you change to a 6SN7 preamp? @lowrider57 Thank you for relaying the story about that upgrade. It bears on my question directly. Very helpful. @moofoo Your example, too, bears on the question. And as others have said, there's no substitute metric for actually hearing it. Ex... | |

| What made you change to a 6SN7 preamp? I continue to learn a lot from this thread. Thank you all so much. @big_greg There's a Herron preamp listed used that I have my eye on....someone stop me before I ruin a perfectly good marriage. | |

| Experiment, Experiment; What have been your most successful finds? Most important: room measurement for the sake of positioning, treatment, and reflection and bass control. Why? It creates the best possible foundation to evaluate every other change. | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer Why is this thread still going? Moderators should close it as nothing more constructive will come from this. Unlike Stereo5, I'd prefer that moderators not close threads using their judgment about whether it is "constructive" or not. Because ... | |
| Is Old Music Killing New Music? Why don’t you just delete your first posting. It is lacking in context and appears to be an equity play for young people versus boomers. Equal opportunity is available to young people. Yeah, I won’t be deleting anything. The pressure on younger... | |

Sorry, but that’s not the point of what I have said or what his video was about. You have rendered an oversimplification, ... | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer @stephens770 It was sarcasm. "Unvarnished" added to "truth" was hyperbole meant to convey irony. I have no "purposes." Sorry it wasn’t clearer.
