| Jackson Browne's "Time the Conqueror" re. Kira...Amen, Brother! Was never able to look at (or listen to) Bruce Springsteen the same way again after he trapsed around the country with John Kerry. Before that, I thought Bruce was against the machine, not a particular party. He came acro... | |

(Several cycles). Even having read this...it still wigged... | |
| Audio Research VSi55 Tube Rolling I have the VS-55 and love it (probably very similar sound to the VSI-55). You likely have stock 6550EH's (Electro- Harmonix). I very recently had a retube. ARC informed me that because of quality and longevity issues with the EH's, they are now re... | |
