"I would make it worth their while to look at it for me. Thank you!" Dinner and dancing?  
12au7 tube?
If you can find a pair of these, grab them. Westinghouse carbon plate 12au7, but a very specific limited production type. So why this tube is not very well known? It’s very hard to find and even if you find it you have to be careful what you buy...

In keeping with the spirit of the forum, the winner is 'A Hard Day's Night'.  
The best opening act you've ever seen & heard?
That should be 'high fiving'. Stupid autocorrect.

"What kind of idiot would boo Linda Ronstadt?" Probably the ones who came down from Massachusetts. They’re like that. Billy Squier opening for Queen right after his ’Don’t Say No’ album came out, Hartford Civic Center. Collective Soul opening...

"Clooney has maybe 4, his characters become him..." Tell you who made an incredibly successful career out of playing the same character(himself)in every movie, and that was Cary Grant.

Oh, my...  
12au7 tube?
You want to go with what the cognoscenti declare to be the best of the best? Telefunken G73-R. Love to try out a pair of those.   
12au7 tube?
+1 @audition__audio  about the clear tops. Annoyingly bright.  
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks
That pentangle on the floor isn't for decoration!

"Which will put me back up in the attic again, which is my least favorite place in this house..." It's full of mannequin heads and creepy dolls, isn't it...  
System Advice
Are you sure it requires it? I think that's just an optional upgrade.

Pan's Labyrinth.  
12au7 tube?
+3 on Amperex. Sound wise it sits beautifully between Telefunken and Mullard. Look for the 7316, the older the better.
