| Phil Collins Remasters IME, everything from Germany sounds best. My first choice is to find the original CD or LP pressed in Germany.Regarding Japanese remasters, I think there is a deal made for licensing and distribution. | |

| How to properly put audio equipment on top of an antique buffet cabinet? Possibly Herbie's Tenderfeet. They are neither sorbathane or rubber.http://herbiesaudiolab.net/compfeet.htmAnd to the OP; please pull your speakers forward to improve imaging. | |
| Which Budget Speakers, Tekton or Omega? @jond , yes a very different amp than mine. I'm looking at reviews and seeing that a 20 to 30W tube is needed to get the most out of the Hologram M3 Turbo. High power SS is even better. | |

| How to properly put audio equipment on top of an antique buffet cabinet? Don't put a stone platform directly on that nice furniture.

| Valves. Brimar Mazda ECC83 grey ladders plates NOS 1962-1972 I know that Brimar did make valves with the Mazda name. Typically, Brimar is slighty less warm than Mullard but have more extended highs and low-end. Highs and mids are very smooth. Both made in UK.The best choice is the Mullard Longplate square g... | |
