| My really dumb tube mistake(s) OP just googled those Davone Mojo's cool looking speakers I dig the MCM vibe! As far as tube wear goes I tend to have power tubes go bad before they sound degraded as I listen a ton. Pre-pandemic 8 hours a day and during more like 12+ so I work tu... | |
| Remarkably better sound possible with just 1 system component change? @chandybe do you have two, or more, systems? I see Bryston and Mark Levinson gear in addition to the Mac gear you mentioned. | |

| Can anybody be a speaker designer? The speaker industry is what's known as a meritocracy, good designs sell bad ones don't for the most part. Beyond that nothing is really needed. | |
| Finally - New Spendor distributor in North America You can't just adjust currency you need to add in the cost of shipping, distributor markup and retail markup.
