| Reliability - what’s your experience been? @immatthewj From memory the V12R was rated at 100w /channel. Yes, a lot of tubes, but a very cute looking amp in its deep red finish... @rooze , the stereo version of the V12 (at least my V12 I) is rated at 50 wpc in triode mode and 100 wpc in ... | |
| Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say? What I do not do is start a thread asking what I should do or say about a scenario that is either hypothetical or has already happened. Epic trolling though. @macg19 + 10! | |
| Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say? I’ve been giving this an excruciating amount of thought over the past few days, and what I’ve come up with is this: if I thought I could take him, I’d say, "C’mmon, dude; let’s get it on right here in your pathetic listening room, and after I bea... | |
| Pop album that has stood the test of time . . . I’d probably have to concede that (by The Rutles) Rutle Sole and Shabby Road and Tragical History Tour and Sgt Rutlles Only Darts Club Band have also withstood the test of time quite well. | |

| Pop album that has stood the test of time There are a couple of true stand outs by The Rutles: A Hard days Rut and who can ever forget Hey Dude. | |
| Does anyone have any experience with Revel M126Be speakers? @bassbuyer , thank you for your kind thoughts I am sure it will get better. @fsonicsmith , at the time I decided to try out new speakers, I was thinking that the R&D over the last 30 years must surely have resulted in a superior sounding pro... | |
| Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say?

Hasn't the OP already pretty much stated that this is another one of his ... | |
| Does anyone have any experience with Revel M126Be speakers? @bassbuyer , I have been going through a period of mixed feelings. To begin with, I did not want to like them but I found myself impressed in spite of myself. However after putting 100+ hours on them, I hooked my B&Ws back up hoping that th... | |
| Does anyone have any experience with Revel M126Be speakers? @bassbuyer , yes, I did buy a pair from MD. | |
| Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say? I haven't heard anybody else's system for years so I have no idea what anybody elses system sounds like. I just have my imagination to work with. So this was all just a theoretical question? | |
