Speaker grills, but I understand it is not the best eye-candy.

A mans gotta do what a mans gotta do

The full story is my girlfriend whacked one of the drivers with a broom while cleaning, which led me to replace the first one. I then put the speaker grills on to protect them, which made the speakers more appealing to be scratched by my cat. He started scratching the grills, so I took them off again and hopes that he would stop since they were being shredded. Only took one day of them being off to claw up the surrounds. So that means replacing a driver and getting custom metal grills, but at this point I'm ready to move on lol.

You haven't thought of replacing the girlfriend who started it...?

Stock grills are metal mesh, meaning there is a limited amount of destruction a cat can do to them

This cat will eat metal mesh grills for breakfast

Here is the guilty party, at his leisure. Love him to death, but he is on the naughty list this year.

Oh he knows what he did. And he doesn't care either.

Also, what KIND of globe 45s did Zach get?

Lol oh yeah, totally. They are Philco branded, look to be the same build as mine from the photo, but might have to ask him for a better pic.

He'll love them then. None of my ST 45 tubes even come close.

I've been enjoying lurking here for some time, but unfortunately, I don't see any tube rectifiers, so... lol

Sorry Ken, one of my amplifiers is tube rectified, but it's been a while lol admittedly I gravitate toward designing with SS rectifiers, maybe I'll use a tube again soon.

Visiting some family friends. Spotted this guy hiding in the basement closet. Maybe it's my Christmas gift.

I see a lot of mention of the 45 tube on this thread, although I have no experience with this tube, has anyone tried this new version from Sophia Elec.?

Of course, now you need a 3009. or go all the way down the rabbit hole (Decca London International plus the Decca cartridge of your choice…).
