| Sound of SED Winged C KT88 vs. SED Winged C 6550's I think sounds best with KT-88's rather than 6550's and the best new production KT-88 is the Gold Lion re-issue. | |
| Anyone try the Fosgate Fozgometer Azimuth meter? Seems like it's back-ordered everywhere. | |
| Buy tubes from Audio Research or not Unless I am mistaken, Upscale Audio also burns in their output tubes. Not sure what their rejection rate is. However, they've given up on re-tubing the ARC VT-100. | |

A better choice would be the 7119 of which the best is Amperex, now becoming quite scarce. Many like the 5687 instead, of which the Tungsol black plate is c... | |

| BAT at CES? $30K for the pair of monoblocks. Yikes!!The recession must be over. | |
| BAT at CES? Maril555 - Did you ask about cost and the ability to upgrade from the 75SE to the REX? Thanks. | |
| AR highend equipment by Cello Rickmac - The Cello Amati speaker was closely based on the AR LST speaker. Mark Levinson designed the crossover. It was considered high end with a suitably high price tag. | |
| BAT VK-60 stereo to mono jumper Just as Semi says: Remove the jumper, then either cut or unsolder the wires joining the 2 sets of speaker terminals. Those wires will be obvious. They only connect each set of terminals. Do not remove or cut the wires from the circuitboard(s) to t... | |
