| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Jax2,I find your sarcasm both annoying and refreshing. An oxymoron I know. But life is an oxymoron, or better still a paradox. Yet I continue in my passion, and also my obssesion to find the truth.The fact that you choose to use profanity is of co... | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Slappy,The point is this: There is good tube gear out there, and these sales people at your local retail stores, and electronic ignorants ( who are educated beyond their own intelligence ) are living in the past. They are still giving us the same ... | |
