| Deja Vu Audio 300B Mono Amps Push-pull 300B's driven by a pair of 6SN7's. Nice! About 28 watts per amp! | |
| Deja Vu Audio 300B Mono Amps Be sure to have a load (speaker) connected to each amp before doing any testing (otherwise output trannies can be damaged!). An arcing tube can damage an amp! Testing all the tubes for shorts is sound advice! | |
| Deja Vu Audio 300B Mono Amps Just replace the dead resistor with the same value (25w/270ohm/5%). No need for something a lot more expensive! | |

| PADIS vs Furutech fuses +1 select-hifi! Debating the merits of various fuses is MADNESS! Ditto for power cords! Ouch! Who threw that rock! | |
| You can make boxes, but not electronics? Maybe the 604 is for you ... +1 for the 604's! | |
| Super tweeters, are they worthwile? I recommend a visit to an Audiologist to test your hearing and find out where it drops off! | |
