. . . have gone away, as has the hum. I think Bob is right, I've got a hinky bit of coax; lots more of that around here to sub-out with, but not tonight. Also, I guess it takes a bit of time for the tubes and caps to get acquainted. The Wallace Volunteer Fire Department is standing down are they're now back at the Metals Club bar to celebrate saving another lot.
I'm all in for MontanaWay's TubeFest, but ID should be required. May I propose propeller hats? That should separate us from the chaff.
Jim McShane, I rescued your old 120s and RCA drivers from the Dumptster, and will keep them as back-ups. Still, I think upwards of 3-4k hours on a rack of tubes is money well spent. And I push these babies hard.
No, I'm not bringing the 500-lb Vandersteens to TubeFest, but would be willing to negotiate a swap of well made woody M-125s for my metal ones. After all, if it ain't broke, go break it. Or, to quote Red Green, if you can't be handsome, be handy.
