I used Cardas chassis wire , first I used 15.5awg from speaker posts to crossovers and then to the speakers , I t... | |
| A question about tube rolling Wow , what a great experience , meeting a tube guy is like winning the lottery for tube rolling . I will say that rolling 2 exact same tubes is a lot easier than my situation where I have 6 tubes of 3 different types used in a Tavish Designs phono... | |
