| Replace tubes yearly? @dougthebiker - thank you for your thoughts about your experience. It would take me much longer than I've got left to live to run up 4500 hours on my 300B tubes. For me, they get used perhaps 1/10 of that much. | |
| Replace tubes yearly? I'd just as soon not replace my WE-300B's every year, thank you very much, unless Paul wants to gift me a pair annually. It was a silly statement if that's what he said (I'm going by the comments, not the vid), with no consideration as to how lon... | |
| Any Audiophiles Here Have Experience with Hearing Aids? I've got hissy tinnitus and loss of high frequencies, and I've worn hearing aids for over 20 years; they've made such an improvement in everything, including listening to music. They won't bring back lost hearing, but they can manage to adjust the... | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @limomangus - too right - personally, I've been wearing hearing aids since I was in my 50's (I'm 73 now), but they have really improved. I can hear plenty out of a seriously good 2-channel or headphone system). They're as great a benefit for heari... | |
| Collectibles signed by musicians. What do you have? I bought a John Entwistle limited print at a John Entwistle art show in San Francisco about 25 years ago that John signed for me. Also have a cardboard 3 foot by 3 foot of the cover of Genesis' 'Duke', signed by Tony, Phil, and Mike.... | |
| Listening When I was a whole lot younger, I'd do other things, like reading, while music was playing. I can't do that anymore. When I listen to music, I listen to music. When I read, I read. The twain shall not meet and my brain is the happier for it.... | |

| Is anyone here still into live concerts these days? @drbarney1 - PA technology has gotten immensely better over the decades; Just because you've not experienced a high-quality PA does not mean they do not exist. It's an extreme, but check out the Sphere in Vegas. But some bands like the Grateful De... | |
| Reaction to possibly the best live rock performance I've heard. Grand Funk I'm 73, and yes, Grand Funk sure were a big band for awhile and they had some good songs, but I'm not sure about the 'standing the test of time' thing. I saw them once around '71 or '72 and this was back in the days of loud, distorted PA's, and my... | |
| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? I believe in cable quality making a difference, but no, none has made that kind of impact for me. | |

| The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse!! I'm 73 and I disagree with Beato pretty much all the time when he's whining about how 'his music' just isn't relevant to 'the kids' anymore. He sounds like people of my parents' generation moaning about the Beatles and and that new rock and roll ... | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @grislybutter - interesting, I've never heard that saying before, but it sure does not apply to me or any of my friends.... Quite the opposite, for us.... | |
