| What would happen when you under Bias your tubes? I had to turn down the bias on one of my tube amps, it was going through tubes too fast. I didn't change it that much, around 10% I think. I could not notice a difference in sound. | |

| Matching components? Matching is mostly faceplates not sound. | |
| Need recommendations for 20' speaker cable So, you are using zip cord now? | |
| Where is the weakest link? "...Its a general question relating to cabling..."I can't help you or your system if I don't know what it is. Generalizations usually don't work out...that might be a generalization but mine works. | |
| Where is the weakest link? List your equipment and we'll tell you the weak link but be prepared, it might not be the path you are thinking about. |
