| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Trelja- It wouldn't take much voltage to get the filaments lit. I'd like to see pictures of that(no doubt: every other AudioGoner would too)! Ya know- I never thought about that fact(women are from Venus). Is that why they're so acidic, er- acetic... | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Touche' Trelja- I stepped it in with the silica, silicon and silicone(sili of me). I suppose I've sniffed too many silca gel packs lately. I'll henceforth leave early morninig posting alone(and eat a "big enough breakfast" instead). Care to addres... | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Trelja- I DO(and did) know the difference between silicone and silica, as(again) is obvious by the fact that I correctly used the term "silica" correctly twice elsewhere in my post(as the meanest of intellects would have noticed- No points for you... | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? What exactly did you, "take apart"? Like I said, I found nothing in your retort but the usual liberal obfuscation. And- So you continue(ad nauseum). | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Excuse the hell out of my mis-spelling of "silica"(it was 4:30am when I typed that, and must have had implants on my mind). Obviously- I know the difference, as I spelled it correctly in my reference to the beach, and you further picked up my mean... | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Trelja- Everything you've mentioned IS found in nature. The materials used in our tubes are in large part are all elements or alloyed elements(in the case of steel). Copper, zinc, nickel, lead, gold, and barium are all metals commonly found in vac... | |
| 200-amp Breaker Panel Question Hi Mr F- One of the best things about silver is that it's oxide doesn't affect electrical transfer the way copper's does. It wouldn't hurt to re-apply it now and then. But- it shouldn't be necessary. Actually- removing breakers is a very simple ta... | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Put 'em in a blender and proceed as instructed here: (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/1064.htm) | |
| 200-amp Breaker Panel Question One of these products on every electrical connection: (http://www.walkeraudio.com/sst.htm) Do place the system on the opposite phase. You'll avoid any voltage drops when the appliances are starting/running, if nothing else(you'll still have the sa... | |
| Weights on top of equipment to dampen vibration I've got a pair of the VPI Magic Bricks also. Placed atop the power transformers of my main amps the result is an instant and profound improvement in overall focus. The Bricks contain a grain oriented iron that perhaps redirects the x-former's flu... | |

| Define Actually- The "acoustic center" of a dynamic driver is the point at which the voice coil attaches to the cone, dome or diaphragm. When "time aligning" drivers in a system, these are the points of the drivers that are "aligned". | |
| Power cords and soundstage Uh- Let's see: "speaker cables are extensions of the power amp's power circuit." What's at the beginning of the power amp's power circuit again? OH YEAH- The power cord! My ears HAVE been opened by a number of the cords I've tried and the Stealth ... | |
| Placette linestage vs. Adcom 750 passive Perhaps you don't know what the term, "transparent" means. You don't "hear" a Placette AT ALL. If what is passed to your amp is "dry", that's what your source is delivering. Some people prefer colorations/inaccuracies in their reproduction. If thi... |
