| Blown tube issue To blow a tube in six months is unexpected, and unfortunate, but unfortunately not unusual. | |
| Dallas or Texas-based audio companies Raven is in Texas. Not sure how "local" they are, Texas being bigger than many countries and all.... | |
| One Cord To Rule Them All Sad, but true. | |
| Are "vintage" DAC's worthwhile, or is this a tech that does not age well You can be sure vintage DACs are good simply by the state of the huge vintage market, all the refurbished vintage DACs, the small cottage industry of artisans making beautiful wood cabinets to show off fine vintage DACs, and by looking at how many... | |
| Am I crazy? Definitely! Miller, you've hyped Moabs five times here already. Happy to let someone else hype them for a change. He does it way better anyway. https://youtu.be/7RxRTFx6Cd0?t=354 | |
| What equipment should I invest in next? Another good one, in addition to Townshend Podiums, since you have both digital and analog try some TA-102 fO.q tape. Find it on eBay for the best price. I got this from another guy here who uses it all over his turntable. Most vibration damping m... | |

I think if I had a dollar for every time someone thought digital had plateaued, or it was a good time to buy, or that it finally caught up with vinyl, or any of those, just one dollar each time since ninteenfrickeneighty, I could buy me a ni... | |
| Am I crazy? Definitely! The Tekton users group on Facebook is pretty active. You might find some to hear that way. I tried that and it almost worked. But then I realized, if the speakers are as good as they're supposed to be then I will be listening more to the other guy... | |
| What equipment should I invest in next? Based on what you said, Townshend Podiums. I've used all kinds of power conditioners, power cords and cables. Good ones will definitely make a big improvement. But you know from first hand experience the unique timbre and tone of live instruments.... |
