| TAD vacuum tubes? Thanks to all for the input. I am way good on my over supply of 6922/6DJ8s and 6SN7s and EL84s, but I am thinking ahead about the dozen EL34s for my Cary V-12. Without any intent whatsoever to start a political discussion, I presently do not wan... | |
| Best Covers I recently watched a youtube of Adam Sandler with a decent band, on the Letterman show, covering Werewolves Of London and I thought it was pretty good. That's the first time I, personally, have ever heard that tune covered. | |
| TAD vacuum tubes? Thank you, @noromance @jond . | |
| Wiring for mono-blocks . . . here are some examples of search results using "dedicated circuits" for a search engine: dedicated circuit threads | |
| Wiring for mono-blocks I remember a couple of years or so ago it seemed like there was always a different thread/discussion going on related to dedicated circuits. Either here in the preamps/amps forum or in misc. Anyway, you might find some of those discussions inter... | |
| Who Gets Left Out? but can someone explain to me why plugging the amps directly into the wall is better than getting clean power from the conditioner. I’ve read both sides of the argument. The argument against plugging amps into a power conditioner seems to be th... | |
| Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound? @immatthewj Apparently you're the only one not oblivious to the fact that OP started an identical thread to this back in February...and responses have been pretty much the same....maybe this is a test? @wyoboy , I have come to the conclusion th... | |
| Who Gets Left Out? Assuming that this doesn't turn into a "to condition or not to condition" debate/discussion, I would think that the preamp should get plugged into the power conditioner. As far as the amps, there seems to be a variance of opinion as to whether a... | |
| Affordable Grounding The meaning of HERMIT is one that retires from society and lives in solitude especially for religious reasons I, on the other hand, think that I am getting more and more like a hermit everyday. Except that my desire for solitude and to retire f... | |
| Thanks to the Moderators Hearding cats.... Is that at all like hoarding cats? | |
| Is there Tannoy Magic / Should I buy a pair of Tannoys as "accessory" speaker? I saw an advertisement for the Tannoy Sterlings, and even though I just bought a pair of Revels and am now out of the market I still cannot help myself from wondering about speakers "that I should have bought," so I read a review on the Sterlings ... | |
| Thanks to the Moderators We need more people making decisions for us on what is good or bad in our adult life. When an audio thread becomes a soapbox for personal attacks that have nothing to do with the topic, I'm thankful for a moderator. I don't view it as a "thre... | |
| Creativity on artists I dislike I am afraid to ask what @hanki gets for a prize. | |
| Creativity on artists I dislike Beatles trivia: There’s actually a Beatles song that has the word ’poop’ in it. Which song, and no cheating by looking it up. Well, I will not technically cheat. What I will do is pull up a list of all Buttles songs and see if any of them rin... | |
| Creativity on artists I dislike I am afraid that one is above of my pay grade. But somewhere I am pretty sure that I have the first CD that Pootie And The Brown Fish put out. |
