tubes went bad in it so it sat in the closet for the last 2 years. it's from the hand made in florida era. i have a brand new set of the Sovtek tubes US Amps uses. BUT, i tried an upgrade and installed a set of NOS Mullard tubes that cost me just under $300 for the pair. amp is in exellent...

well, i imagine sound efx might have been getting multiple phone calls informing them of their dealer termination status. i'm making an educated guess that the companies involved made phone calls to each other to make sure they all knew that this one dealer was jacking them. in that case, the...

Going under the knife sale, help me support a surgeon's salary..... I have a hardly used pair of HAT L1 pro's, $200 shipped within the USA. I am a ribbon tweet fan. Tried to see if the L1's would fit my tastes cause we all know how big ribbons are and a PITA to install. But I'm stuck on the...

trades...... new 9100's is what i have in mind to take these guys place. 1 has never seen power, the other is listened to with only about 300w pushing it.

a change in project plans. $800 (FIRM!) + shipping for the pair.

that's at your discression. we haven't had to do very many warranties at all with the sscs. so your odd's are good that you won't have to worry about it. but if you do have a problem,..........

i've had several people pm me about sscs. some are available. but........ i won't go spill the beans at this time for the whole story. there was an unfortunate personal event, and now the crystal portion of the business is done. i would prefer not to sell any sets, because i don't want to be...

come on mane, re-read about this european vs american bit. here, i cut, paste, and added it in. "i think it comes down to if the person is building because they're after the almighty $, or if they're doing it to produce as close to perfect acoustical reproduction as they possibly can. rather...

how many of you (cause i know i'm not the only one) have used brand X for years. then either they decide to make a change, or they get bought and make a change. suddenly, their new crap has repeatable constant problems. obvious area that needs fixed. so you call them and ask them what they're...

you don't have to get so aggro over a generalized statement. i never said there werent' bad european's and there weren't good american builders. i did say there were good american builders. just cause i didn't label them, and to your list there's also OZ audio, DD, mmats, zapco, ultra, and so...

i think it comes down to if the person is building because they're after the almighty $, or if they're doing it to produce as close to perfect acoustical reproduction as they possibly can. rather than just american or european. one reason i think the hobbyist can sometimes do better work than...

i was commenting back in one post to multiple trains of thoughts. so it might not pertain to just one poster. i never said the spider was the only factor. it is a very important factor that not just everyone can master to the degree that others can. i have never discredited the importance of...

you are asking for more than i am going to share with you. learn it yourself. if you knew much about spiders yourself, you would have the basic idea of what to do. have i mastered it? hell no. once i got to that point and had learned about all that i am referring to (and not just the #...

exactly. it is a 2 part design and build process. i am not blind to that. where i disagree is that a single process is going to produce perfection. do the build parts to a high end speaker set really cost so much that it should retail for a thousand dollars vs a sony explode for fifty? or are...
