Rolling Tubes in the Atma-Sphere C-30 amp
Sabai, I have no idea how many TS-RPs others are using. I suppose some love to get 'full' benefit from the glorious sounds of them and don't care what it costs. I used them in the 2 voltage-gain positions of my '60s.. 
Rolling Tubes in the Atma-Sphere C-30 amp
ONE day and you're surprised?I had a pair of M60s, and I've had other poweramps that use 6SN7GTs in their frontends. In my and MANY others' opinions, there in no overall-finer-sounding 'N7 than the Tung-Sol Roundplate. They seem to be worth around... 
Do you ever just listen to music
Absolutely, especially since my system sounds so excellent.:-).

Recommendations for balancing gain in bi-amp setup
I certainly agree with the question--doesn't the crossover have have gain controls? If so, turn the upper-freq. level down or the lower-freq. level up.Kr4, re your #1, what the OP might need are amps with equal VOLTAGE GAIN and not equal sensitivi...

Interesting. I believe that recording is both an art and a science...that both highly elevated emotion AND gear-chasing, for instance, are essential for the BEST-sounding recordings.Csontos: "It isn't artful when the recorded vocals sound like act...

After Blackgates... which caps are best for Audio?
Michael Percy...http://percyaudio.com/...sells Nichicons including audio-specific types. I installed the KG Super Throughs in my McCormack DNA-750 powersupplies. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k220/jeffreybehr/McCormack/09May2012_newPScaps1_100... 
This probably a really silly question...
Interesting that the Sound Dynamics 300Tis still get discussed--and KEPT! I bought 2 pairs, one brand-new in 1994 as part of the last batch (of 50 pairs, I believe) that Audio Products International put together as a result of the publicity HP and... 
Best speaker on used market around 10,000.00
Vandersteen 5As, no doubt. They are phase-copherent across the band, use excellent drivers and design, and the powered-bass system is EXCELLENT for definition, power. and extention...as in below 20Hz. The bass system is also tuneable to remove mos...
