The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues.
I think Danny could be a little more diplomatic and tell the positives about the speakers he is upgrading, obviously there aren't all negatives. He could praise the stuff that is done right and then go into what can be improved on.  
Replace tubes yearly?
@rar1 Paul even said in one video several years ago, that you have to be careful not to touch the glass on an audio vacuum tube, that's nonsense, just like his several videos that tell people to change vacuum tubes once a year on input stages.

@onhwy61 ​​​​​​My brother-in-law worked at UPS as a delivery driver, he was paid well.  
Replace tubes yearly?
@rar1 Paul has said to replace tubes every year in past videos, in fact Kevin from upscale Audio even made a video opposing what Paul has said.  
Question about high current amps versus "not high current amps"
Some amplifier manufacturers do take current measurements on the outputs of the amp, the Krell I400 has 62 amps of peak current on the output. I'm sure those are taken for only brief milliseconds before the outputs fry.

@audition__audio ​​​​​​ There are people on this forum that advertise, even though they shouldn't, the PS audio dac modifications come to mind.  
ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS
@tomic601 the use of an SPL meter to level match is not the proper way. Matching voltage is.  
Krell 200 amp, Krell KRC Preamplifier for repair
If you look inside your Krell amp and PS audio BHK amp, you will see which one is built better. That has to have some kind of value. In order to get that kind of build quality you would have to spend a lot more money than the repair costs, or even... 
Good outlet for amplifiers
@howardlee the ground on top makes more sense to me, because if something was to fall such as a paper clip onto a plug that isn’t plugged in all the way it could definitely cause a spark if it came in contact with the hot and neutral.  
Krell 200 amp, Krell KRC Preamplifier for repair
The service department in Connecticut, can fix your amplifier, the owner was the head tech at Krell for many years. His name is Steve Leckrone and is one of the best Krell techs in the country.

@stringreen I didn't know Krell had a place in Arizona, I thought they were only in Connecticut.   
HOW DID YOU END UP WITH YOUR DREAM SYSTEM?
@calvinj he keeps pushing the 861 like a salesman.  
DON:T WAIT! Replace Those Old Power Tubes!
@oddiofyl  that's right, testers are great for weeding out shorted or bad tubes, not so much for tube life or even for matching. Testers don't test tubes at real world operating voltage and current.  
Preamp issue
@evank why do the Denafrips dacs seem to have a static discharge problem?

@devinplombier I still don't understand why the vast majority of people need that law, most mainstream equipment is just cheap throwaway stuff anyway.
