     Some Cargo Cultists build runways.      Others: control towers, or install fake landing lights.                           Let  'em!                         Who cares?                       Happy listening!  
What is the science behind audiophile fuses?
@reimarc -      If your ears and system could determine/resolve the difference in presentation, between the mentioned XLRs; I'll bet that you'd appreciate what better fuses provide.       As I mentioned: some come with a 30 day, satisfaction gua... 
From whence does Sound Stage come?
      I've been looking for an Undocumented Pharmacist, that deals in Thorazine, of late.                                      NO JOY, thus far.                                           ¯\_(ツ)_/¯                     https://www.youtube.com/wat...

     No one can tell you whether/how your system, room and/or ears will respond to some new addition.   There are simply too many variables.      LIKEWISE: no one can possibly know whether a new addition (ie: some kind of disc, cr... 
Driver Tubes 6922
All current manufacturers, at least the ones I have used should be utterly ashamed at their ineptness, apathy, ignorance, or whatever it is that makes them seemingly unable to make a tube properly. And I never knew what I was missing. The 1.5 mi...

But when it’s your own stuff, it is easy for anxiety or frustration to overcome one’s senses.                                           YEP!                   Been there, done that, got the T-shirt!

@oldrooney -       Remember this?   Be certain all the drivers in your left channel's speaker system are functional.      Of course: functional and functioning are two different aspects, but...                            Glad you got everyth... 
Driver Tubes 6922
     btw:  I've had 6SN7GT, Tung-Sol round plates, that got noisy in the same way you've mentioned, do to material flaking and getting in their grids.      GENTLY tapping their pins (vertically) on a table cleared them up nicely.      Never need...

@tonydennison-                    Should you not get an immediate response:      If I'm not mistaken, Brent Jessee's on vacation/closed until Sept 5.             Rest assured: he'll treat you very fairly, whatever the issue.   
Lush and Romantic Tube Amps
What I learned along the way is that NOS rectifier and driver tubes are vastly superior to current production versions.                                                   Fact!  
Lush and Romantic Tube Amps
@papafrgog ​​​& @vthokie83-       While I totally agree with your assessments, regarding rolling amp valves; I'll bet the OP could save a passel of $$ (not to mention: possible sensitivity/efficiency matching headaches), were he to roll some ... 
3-Dimensional Soundstage
btw:       The tests that I referenced are scientifically designed to eliminate all variables, as far as the source/recording.       If your system reproduces the effects, as recorded and announced/described prior to play; your system will repro... 
3-Dimensional Soundstage
     What edcyn, williewonka and erik_squires said, +1 each.      Symmetry of your overall system (channel balance, both electronic and room acoustic), quality of components, purity of signal transfer (there are those cables, again) and time alig...
