| NOS Tubes - Ecstasy or Agony Never have had a problem with Brent Jessee. Recently (5/2020): bought his last pair of NOS, T/S Round Plates (40's/6SN7GT/spring top support) and couldn't be happier. Far as TC Tubes: My last octet of GE 6550's (from them) had one that wen... | |

| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? For clarity: make that last sentence, "Compression (whether dynamic or power) is another subject altogether; again, not caused by the crossover, but- by overdriven/overloaded drivers." | |
| Replacing magnepan binding post I’ve seen Magnepan’s MG 3.6 / 3.6/R (with screws holding the terminal plate), but- have never seen, or heard of, a model 3.6a. Can’t help you there! Have the socks (perhaps) been replaced and the terminal plate, partially covered? Sp... | |

| Audiogon Is Still Relevent...Don't Listen to the Naysayers. "This thread subject was basically bait that I couldn’t resist, being so obviously false." What's, "obviously false" is your opinion; which you, "couldn't resist" posting. Thus far, your posts bring the only negative vibe. S... | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum Dies Help Sorry, for the oversight. Hope you find your issue. | |
