Disadvantages of buying old solid state.
                                              +1 on electrolytic replacement.      It’s unfortunate, but: some of the older values and/or dimensions can be hard to locate, unless the amp manufacturer stocks them.      With the way some amps are ... 
How Electricity Actually Works
     Apparently: THAT cables in audio work, is evident to quite a number of people.      Numerous cable companies have been in operation for decades and doing quite well on the premise, including Used Cable/The Cable Company.      Some bank on t...

Physics Question: Why does cabinet volume matter so much to bass response?
@marined -      As rego mentioned: how a driver responds in an enclosure, depends largely on T/S parameters.      I didn’t notice anyone else providing further info, but- I HATE to type, so:           https://audiojudgement.com/thiele-small-par... 
How Electricity Actually Works
@deludedaudiophile -      Thank you for establishing the point I made, in an earlier post, regarding not always believing oneself to be THE POPE!                                                                   As I posted:: Feynman was and w... 
How Electricity Actually Works
                                                                    n.w.o.r.:      Any measurements or truths would clearly indicate that your opinions and hypothesis have no foundational basis and are just that, opinions and hypothesis with no ... 
How Electricity Actually Works
@deludedaudiophile-      Thank you for establishing the point I made, in my first post to this thread.      ie: Physicists have been debating how electromagnetism (one of the four known forces), atomic structure/electrons, Particle/Wave Theory, ... 
How Electricity Actually Works
@djones51 -      According to you: "This thread is a discussion about the weirdness or non intuitivness of electricity not the audibility of fuses and wires in sound systems."                                   According to the OP's initial post:... 
How Electricity Actually Works
@barts -                           You mentioned not knowing a tenth of a percent.      The percentage of what we know about our universe, is recognized by Scientists/Physicists as 4-5%.      Multiple Billions have been/are being spent, in an e...

@the likes of czarivey, djones51, etal-                                              Electrons flow?      Try a little update there, at least to the last (20th) Century’s theories, Sparky! https://www.quora.com/Are-photons-emitted-inside-a-wire... 
How Electricity Actually Works
     Feynman was and will remain, my favorite lecturer (yeah: I'm that old).      He mentioned often (and: I took to heart) his favorite Rule of Life: "Never stop learning!"      For all his genius, he never grew overly confident in his beliefs.... 
How Electricity Actually Works
@barts -      Inescapable FACT:  No one understands exactly how electricity works.      That’s why there’s so much Electrical THEORY.      The number of Wiki-Scientists on these pages, attempting to win the IG-Nobel Prize in Pseudo-Physics, is ... 
Tubes getting hard to come by?
@petg60       Here's someone impeccably honest, on eBay, when it comes to those nine pin miniatures, from Europe: https://www.ebay.com/str/tubesandradio?_trkparms=folent%3Atubesandradio%7Cfolenttp%3A1&_trksid=p3542580.m47492.l74602  
How Electricity Actually Works
@oldrooney -      If you think this thread devolved, read through this one, from some months back: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/to-fuse-or-not-to-fuse-that-is-the-question       Amusing at first, then: began to swirl down, as though a...
