Miyajima MADAKE experience Thank you for the feedback chakster. Do you have a recommendation for a non-magnetic screwdriver? Seems like Miyajima uses phillips head screws. I see "ceramic" tools (non sparking, non magnetic) on Amazon, but quite expensive. Thank you. | |

I looked into buying a tester.As gdnrbob mentioned, they are not cheap to buy and maintain.

Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Quick update on the break-in, sound and reliability of the ELROG 300B's. During the 80 hour break-in period, it was a bit of a roller coaster. Sounded good right from the start, but the high end extension (grain) and base slam definitely improved ... | |
