Fedex and Ups Damage thread
When I bought my JBL L300 from the east coast for delivery to California a freight company was used. No problem. Sender used Forward Air. I had to pay extra for them to deliver from LAX to the High Desert. They arrived OK. I would not trust FedEx ... 
Western Electric surveying market for (domestic?) mfg. of other tube types?
Outside of audio gear what is the market for tube?

Beautiful listening rooms
Those can’t true audiophile rooms. Not one used cable standoffs.  
The Boss is the Bo$$
I assume there are many things in the contract but I bet there are at least 2. He cannot record for release any song in the contract and he can still perform any song live for no or low charge. If not the latter we have heard the last of him perfo...
