| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? I once took a group of so called audiophiles and gouged their eyes out so that they had no visual reference to rely on, and then I led them around what they thought were a labyrinth of rooms and told them that some of the rooms had acoustic panels... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system I'm with you when it comes to avoiding a streamer, as I've experienced enough format changes in my lifetime (vinyl to tape to CD to HDCD to SACD). @mitchagain , I am also a member of that club. | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? @jacobsdad2000 , I don't know if I would describe it as the "Wild West", but this identical discussion has reared it's ugly head there and I'd bet a lot of money with one of the original participants. I left after I unintentionally offended or i... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Sorry, @hilde45 , that was just airline industry talk and I didn't mean anything by it. That's just what we always called it (like LaGaurdia was "LaGarbage", and so on) and it just got to where it was second nature without even thinking about i... | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? Wow this thread went down the toilet. @jacobsdad2000 , I am having a flashback from the audio asylum days. It is not a good trip that I am experiencing. | |

| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Sounds like you are already listening to some pretty kick-ass stuff. Stuff, anyway, that would kick my stuff’s ass. I always thought that if I had a lot of disposeable cash to play with I’d want to get into some of Cary’s SET stuff. Back in the e... | |
| 6sn7 to 6922 adapter: good idea or bad idea? Maybe they don't know... @atmasphere , I don't think that speaks well for them either. | |
| 6sn7 to 6922 adapter: good idea or bad idea? Because someone will buy it not knowing that it really won't work. @atmasphere , that doesn't seem to speak well for tubedepot if they are selling it and knowing it is a bad idea. | |
| 6sn7 to 6922 adapter: good idea or bad idea? Thanks to all. That is enough for me to banish the idea from my mind. I wonder why they make such an adapter? | |
| question about adapting 6SN7 to 6922 This is tube depot's listing for them: https://tubedepot.com/products/6sn7-to-6922-adapter | |
| 6sn7 to 6922 adapter: good idea or bad idea? Thanks @dekay , I just double posted on misc as I was hoping to beat the end of tube depot's sale, but with what you just told me, I won't be in a rush and will error on the side of trying to do no harm. I am not tech minded at all, and I will e... | |
