Suggest one obsure album we all should hear
@richmon That Hankdogs album is bliss. Fell in love with it the first time I heard it some 20 years ago. That's a band I wish had stayed together.

@wolf_garcia luckily there’s a triangle dealer right across the river in Collinsville. The nearest Klipsch Heritage dealer, I think is up near Springfield Illinois? That’s not too far for me either, relatively speaking. So I could definitely log t...

@wrm57 Thank you for the explanation. That makes sense especially with the vacillating impedance from the triangles. I've had triangles before, but they were powered with much higher powered amplifiers, like an arc vs 110, or rogue m180 monoblocks. 
Whats on your turntable tonight?
Valerie June - The Moon and Stars (2021) - fantastic melodic alt-Americana 
Whats on your turntable tonight?
Respighi - Pines of Rome. RCA (1960); Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Fritz Reiner, conductor.

@wrm57 assume I'm ignorant of what you're saying, even when 20 years experience in this hobby. My line magnetic 518 has taps for four, eight, and 16 ohms. Would that make a difference with those triangles?

@chorus.   My turntable is a VPI HW-19 MK4 with a Hana ML running to a Hagerman Trumpet phono pre - which just arrived a few days ago and is breaking in. And yes, Decware is right up the road from me and is always an option. I've visited Steve's w...

Hmm. There's also a pair of Triangle Magellan Cellos for sale here that would be a divorce-inducer if I bough them. But it's tempting.

@kcpellethead.     They should be fine in my room. The room's main weakness is its low, 7' ceilings, but length and width are fine. See virtual system pics:https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9393http://

@sounds_real_audio To address your questions:1. I loved the Reference 3A de Capos, especially after I installed the BE tweeters. They might possibly have been the best sounding speakers I’ve heard; however, they were in a much smaller room than I ...

You should give Robert Lee a call and ask him. He'd be happy to discuss how his speakers would fit in with the line magnetic 
Speaker cable length
An update: The line magnetic is back from being serviced, and I installed NOS 12AX7s and new 6V6 tubes. Equipment has been moved off to the side, replaced by some musical instruments and a more sound baffling absorbing piece of artwork. As for the... 
A solid tube photo stage around 1500
@tablejockey It was much less than I was willing to pay, but I love this hobby inasmuch as surprises can come when you're not expecting. Like, I was firmly committed to an Allnic 1201 - until I wasn't. And of the Hagerman doesn't do it for me, I c... 
Now they're planning the crime of the century
"Fool's Overture" really sank itself into my musical persona when I first heard it (years after it was released).
