knghifi,I did a search on EBay. There are quite a lot to pick from.gdnrbob,Thanks, I went this far expecting big things from the M-60's. But, I'm still not quite sure what to expect. After all, I will be coming from a SS amp that had all the power...

gdnrbob,In answer to your question about tube quality. I believe that tubes made before transistors took over were considered to be of the highest quality. Especially those made for the WW2 war effort branded JAN. (Joint Army Navy). These tubes we...

Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak?

SR BLACK UEF Outlet break-in and why you shouldntdo multiple tweaks at once.
I too was never impressed with the MiGs.I now use all Stillpoints Ultra SS under all (except amp) my equipment.I like the SR black fuses, but passed on the SR black outlets. I did have the SR first outlet version, but, I couldn’t believe what chea...

How many CaryAudio techs does it take to replace a lightbulb in a CAD-211FE?
I had a Cary 306 SACD that from day one the CD drawer stuck. I sent it back several times while in warranty and they said they greased the sled.Once out of warranty, they said I needed a whole new circuit board to fix the problem at a cost of $900...
