| Has anyone bought the Psvane Acme 300B Vacuum Tube? @fthompson251 I had 16 of the Gold Lion 300B in my Canary Grand Reference Mono Amps with low hours. I decided to upgrade with Western Electric when I had some fun money. Now no more fun money --- thank you stock market and inflation. While We... | |

| Scotch? No thanks. Whats the best Vodka.? Funny, how do these old threads reappear? Anyway, I hate scotch but love a great shot of Irish whiskey or Bourbon. From a Vodka perspective, I feel good about the Stoli elite. It is not easy to find and is rather expensive for the vodka but oh ... | |

| Thoughts on Lumin D2 I love the Lumin line. I have had the U1 mini, D2, A1, and X-1. To be honest the D2 was the lowest SQ but it was to be expected at that price point. If there is any way you can stretch your budget and buy a used T2 or A1 you would be happier. ... | |
