Replace tubes yearly?
"But he also mentioned that it didn’t make a huge difference since you probably should replace your tubes every year." That is a ridiculous statement for him to make!   Power tubes like EL34's and KT88's are good for about 2500 hours or more. B...

Check HIFI SHARK for the current and sold listings. BTW, that's an outstanding table!  
XM tuners/ receivers

Easy peasy! You will have to remove the preamp and amp straps. You will need two Y cables. From the preamp out the left y-cable will go to the sub left in and to the amp left in. Vise versa with the right channel!  
Shameless Poll: Pearl vs Ohm vs Zu
@oberoniaomnia Thanks for the info!  
Shameless Poll: Pearl vs Ohm vs Zu
@oberoniaomnia Did you purchase them from a dealer or direct? Those speakers peek my interest. Can you please tell me what is the price range of them? Thanks much!!  
Shameless Poll: Pearl vs Ohm vs Zu

Outlet Requirements
"I had my old house’s wiring upgraded to include two 20A outlets and one 30A outlet for dedicated audio equipment. " What will you plug into a 30 amp outlet? I have never seen a piece of audio gear with a 30 amp power cord!

To Fritz, Quicksilver, and all the exceptional makers trying to get the word out

BEST SPEAKER THAT COMES TO LIFE AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS
"Any recommendations would be appreciated. Due to age and ear issues I can listen comfortably at 55-60 dbs and not much louder." Why spend 15 grand if you only listen at 60 db maximum? 60 decibels (dB) is equivalent to a normal conversation l...
