Riddle me this....
How would you get absolute polarity if  some instruments were recorded in phase and some out of phase on the same song, I wouldn't doubt if this happens when recording at multiple recording studios.

@grislybutter  They do have the longest charting album in history, so must be a lot of people like their music.

@curtdr  You didn't respond to the measurable difference. There is a measurable difference of lower capacitance when cable risers are used. I also don't convince myself that there is a positive difference just because I've spent money on somethin... 
Leaving my amplifier on ok?
@bishop148  Electrolytic capacitors and relays definitely have a life expectancy, so there are components in audio equipment that need to be replaced.

@curtdr  How is it a big scam if it cost nothing or next to nothing and there is an actual measurable difference?

https://positive-feedback.com/audio-discourse/bunking-cable-lifters/   On positive feedback there is an article on bunking cable lifters, they actually measured a difference in capacitance with cable lifters in place.

I have reversed the polarity of my apogee duetta speakers because my preamp inverts phase, the voices are centrally located and the focus is just fine.  
Is this describing a blown tube, or two blow tubes?
Tube testers don't use real world plate current under load, so the life test doesn't mean much.

@ghdprentice  I agree, even if you had a tube tester that was calibrated and working properly, they are of limited use especially for power tubes.

Tube testers are not very good for matching tubes, you may be able to weed out a shorted tube though.

I did have a carver receiver go up in flames, but it only lasted a split second, and unless there was a lot of paper and kindling on top of the receiver there was no chance of a fire.  
Why is solid state more popular when tubes are better?
@emergingsoul  you do realize that a 300 watt tube amp will not have the harmonic distortion content like a set amp would have.  
SET Lovers, what's the one solid state amp you love(d)?
I don't consider Cary audio the very best example of tube equipment.

@pindac    I have never heard of an insurance company not paying because of the reasons you state, do you have some examples?

@bolong    What if you are not overdriving the amp or preamp? Tubes still sound better for some reason.
