Food or beryllium tweeters for my DeCapo's
"There is nothing about the company and products that I don't like... Except for the looks of the Nextel."Hey get this Tubeears, my wife likes them! I never would have guessed that one right. OK I'm not saying she is in "love" with them but at lea... 
Have you tried SILCLEAR from Mapleshade?
I can't speak of the silclear but if it is anything similar to the Walker SST silver product which I tried and still have on hand I would take you up on the bet Geoff. It works in brightening things up alright but in my particular case it wasn't a... 
Amp with best bass control
For a tube amp the Berning zh270 has the best control I've personally heard. I've compared it favorably to a SS Class A behemoth (Krell) and it sure held its own. We're talking fast bass here. DC coupled so you would expect it.

Hi Tubeears, thank you for sharing your joys and triumph, you are a true inspiration and beacon of hope to all that are dealing with adversity, particularly cancer. I have a few friends going through what you have, it is not an easy journey for th...

Rebbie, I'll keep you posted after I get a handle of these DeCapos in room enough to convey the differences. Well there are obvious differences from the get go but these speakers are REALLY fussy with set-up as I'm discovering and I have to get th...

Hi Tubeears I'm currently using all 600 sei Stereovox cabling and speaker cables with various power cords. This has been a constant for about 6 years after going through many rounds with different cables, these were the best until recently. A frie...

Tubeeears, thanks for the update and keep them coming. I won't be able to discern the changes you've realized as I'm auditioning the latest including the Nextel coating BUT I have great expectations as my all tube system is really geared for a hig...

Oh I don't know Jafant, entertaining is more like it to me. There are enough very serious people on this site that when a true original displays a witty, amusing style it would be viewed as silly. Smile and have a nice day!

Hi Tubeears, I'm with you LOL. I think the speakers are revelatory, at least the two times I've heard them so far. Here's the tell, they just draw me into the music and their possible warts and shortcomings hides in the shadows, at least for now. ... 
SOPHIA BABY ELECTRIC WOWS CROWD
or perhaps it is a case of synergy with the speakers which can in the best case lead to an epiphany. 
LOUSY SOUND AT LIVE CONCERTS
This topic has been covered before. All I can say from my experiences and perspective, attended hundreds of concerts over the years is that lousy sound appreciably diminishes the enjoyment of the music and most importantly, connection to the perfo... 
Speakers that do pianos really well
Marty you touched on an interesting point, more than you might realize. There is a world of "pianophiles" that debate the merit of the tonal characteristics of different pianos as we do speakers whether or not you are aware of this. Check out the ... 
Brian Wilson/Jeff Beck
I think this would be an awesome concert to see. Agree with Onhwy61, Brian Wilson is a god to many musicians not only for his songwriting but for his musical genius for harmony. The guy is in his own world musically but musicians take notice of hi... 
Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps
Hi AlMany years back A friend gave me a copy of "Kiri sings Gershwin" released in 1989 on EMI Classics. For a really different presentation of Gershwin standards from an operatic singer, you might want to check it out. 
worse entertainer or performer of all time??
THIS is the point Swampwalker, she would be 1st on my list on wasted talent, by a big margin. Coming from a solid family with very musical roots and being born with a very rare gift that was nurtured from childhood. At 21 years old coming out with...
