| What is the right thing here................ Hi Dan, I would go for trying to get him to split the cost of the new driver, if that is fruitless then I would go get the speakers, refund the money and end this business relationship. It sounds like you're reasonable and it sounds like he maybe ... | |
| Best cheap NOS tubes:GE, Phillips and Sylvania Rocc - I'm very happy with Mullards in my premier 14 over stock GE and Sylvania.
