Power Cable Break In - Such a Change!
@ozzy-      What did I post that has you confused?      You are absolutely correct, far as  "My ears are my best measurement."      It's the naysayers, that want you to disbelieve your own senses, mental faculties and modern (post 1800s) scient... 
Tube Amp question:TUBE replacements: explain MATCHED?
@immatthewj -      I've looked for/at the smallest ammeters and (thus far): haven't found anything I could mount anywhere on my SLMs' chassis, for the convenience of not reaching for my Fluke.      Hanging a couple on the amp stands and hard-wir...

Tube Amp question:TUBE replacements: explain MATCHED?
     The nicest thing about buying that meter from Cary: it includes the same 3' test leads (with attached 1/4" plug), that came with my SLM100s.                  Or: was it the Rocket 88 (Oldtimer's Disease strikes again)?                      ...

                                                       OOPS!      Make that,  "... might explain some of WHAT'S HEARD from our systems..." (typo).

@rwortman -      What is it, far as the topics covered above, for which you are seeking an informed, scientific explanation?      If you have any knowledge, at all, regarding the Sciences; you must be aware, that we only, "know" what comprises a... 
Tube Amp question:TUBE replacements: explain MATCHED?
     I WISH there were yet honest-to-goodness, NOS KT88/6550 valves out there, that could be described as, "reasonable".      The supplies of Sylvania, GE, Genelex and Tung-Sol output valves, have long been dwindling and the prices (if they can b... 
Tube Amp question:TUBE replacements: explain MATCHED?
@moose89 -      The information that blackdoghifi gave you, regarding YOUR Cary amp’s output tubes and why THEY should be a matched set, is absolutely correct.       Given that all 4 of your valves share one bias voltage; not having a matched se...

     According to SOCRATES: "The only true wisdom is knowing when you know nothing."      My version: "In order to know you don’t know anything you have to know something."      Here are examples, in response to a previous post (mrskeptic’s): h...

New Power Cable on a 1990 Hafler DH120?
                        Be careful with your acceptance of advice!      When choosing the values of a power supply's filter caps, it's important to understand how the supply/circuitry functions.      ie: When a DH-120 is switched on: the capacit... 
Is EMI noise in electrical system inaudible?
     Whenever electricity (i.e: an audio signal) passes through a wire, it produces inductance that creates an electromagnetic field.      Because EMI manifests itself at a high frequency, it is commonly believed not to interfere with the audible...
