    So that's what that Nigerian prince spent all my money on... :laughing:

    It's when the cable has been at room temperature for so long the cryo treatment has fully thawed. 🤣

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    This reminds me of that nixie tube clock scam not too long ago. A fully functioning 6-tube clock including the tubes for $29 (IIRC). You can't even buy the tubes for that these days, let alone the rest of the clock. A couple people from Head-Fi ordered and reported back they received a...

    Mine does too. Strangely, it has the exact same voice as my wife. 🤣

    How cool! I like Kaleo, although I haven't listened to all their stuff at this point.

    ROFL! And who knew they could make their 'fridges sound like their tubes? Must be a house sound kind of thing. 🤣

    That's how I'd describe the sound of @Ripper2860 's system. Just coincidence, I'm sure. 🤣

    I think I would like your wife. No, not for the yacht rock, but definitely for the description of jazz and her means of expressing herself. 🤣

    Lol! Cookie is anxiously awaiting the nap she's going to take as soon as she finishes this one. :laughing:

    You might be incorrectly assuming that all they're 'making' is pottery.... 🤣

    Ahhh....the M3's. I looked very long and hard at those when I resurrected the big rig a number of years ago. Ultimately went with the Tektons mostly because of their higher sensitivity (I had only 20wpc of amplifier to play with) and they were half the price. But always the nagging question...

    Good eye. I didn't look that closely at it.

    Spot on. And for whatever reason RFT's do this pretty consistently, at least the ones I have.

    I can say that I've never seen a movie with Gene Hackman that I didn't like.

    Agree. Another favorite with an excellent music score.

    That's an insanely cool knob. I want one that's flesh colored. 🤣

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Das Boot was a great movie. But my favorite submarine movie is Hunt For Red October. I have no earthly clue how accurate it was, but any flaws were pretty transparent to the layman. Pairing a young Alec Baldwin with Sean Connery almost guaranteed success, and the soundtrack was brilliant. I...

    The strippers here are so gorgeous they don't rent -- they own large mansions. (reported to me by a friend)

    Maybe. Or some poor unknowing soul buys into the listing hype, and is shortly thereafter spouting about in a forum somewhere how they are the uber tube of the century. 🤣

    LOL! Not even 1578's. A couple years ago you could buy standard Melz 6N8S's like these for $20 all day long.
