| Ohm Speakers Status Update Since the ‘80’s I was interested in and wondered how these Ohm Walsh Omni speakers sound but could not afford them. After many years away from this hobby due to other priorities and interests I decided to get back into this hobby 3 years ago. A ... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread @sim_audio_nerd take a look at my post above dated 12-01 on my experience with various nos and old stock rectifiers. They do make a definite difference. Many of the ones listed are low priced. I tried some pricey ones such as Mullard and the hig... | |
| Buying Used Speakers In my 3 years getting back into this hobby I have purchased 3 pairs of used speakers without listening to them prior. I did spend many hours doing research reading reviews, forums, magazines and word of mouth. Fritz Rev 5 SE, Goldenear Triton 2 an... | |

| Thin Line Between Critique and Courtrooms: A Dialogue on the Recent Audiophile Drama Interesting how the majority of folks have focused upon the lawsuit and the review details. What stands out to me is Tekton Man’s improper responses to handling the review and any criticism. We’ve seen on forums as well. If you can’t put your b... | |

| Anyone having shipping issues with Viva Tubes For all the good comments I have heard about Viva Tubes I had a poor result with them in my only purchase.

| eBay 15% is the price of admission to their vast buying audience and site logistics. Seems fair enough to me. I have bought and sold a lot of Tubes (best site to sell on) , CD’s and LP’s with great success on eBay. Higher priced items like componen... | |
