That door is the most direct route to a bathroom, and with dual subs it simply cannot be blocked -- ever!:fearful: And while the bowels may well be moving around a tiny bit, I haven't noted any deleterious effect -- yet.:fingers_crossed:
What @45longcolt meant to say. :D

Not sure, but here’s a sample of his lute playing:

The album is Tabernakel.

Thanks for motivating me to go upstairs and find it. Found a bunch of stuff I'd forgotten I had. Sigh.....now I need to set up a TT so I can digitize some of the out of print stuff. A great reason to take the Mani2 out of the box.

Back to the earlier discussion on Telarcs, I finally got to unpacking the CD's this morning. Have a few more of them than I remembered. This is the glass half-empty part of having too much stuff. Not that there can ever be too much audio stuff of course. But if it were possible on a theoretical basis I'd be guilty, so I'm just glad it's not possible. 🤣

That door is the most direct route to a bathroom, so it cannot be blocked 24/7.:fearful: And while the sub may well be moving around a tiny bit, I haven't noted any deleterious effect.:fingers_crossed:
I think your priorities are off. I suggest you remove the door to the bathroom, put the sub where it needs to go for best sound. No big deal for people to step over the sub. Then you are done.

Addendum: if the bathroom does not have an exhaust fan you might want to add one.

I think I would just stack the subs. With the low pass set correctly, the subs and the Legacy speakers should blend properly in that arrangement. Stacked subs are more efficient too. More bass for your buck...! 🤣

Some of the sound coming from the open bathroom door will also add to the low end sound.

In the shadows of Paladin 79, I am giving away ETYMOTIC ER4SR. I want these to go to someone who is financially challanged. The person that sends me a PM does not have to be that person. You do need to make sure that these get to where they need to be. I will pay for shipping to the lower 48. I will not ship anywhere else. First reply will get the goods.

I am about to round up some tubes. My suggestion would be to listen to each, form an opinion, then look on EBay etc. for prices on the specific tubes you like. Even better maybe have a family member swap tubes and write down the order without letting you see which is which.🤪
I like that idea a lot.

It keeps me honest.

Looking forward to this!!

I checked a few sources and the "good stuff" like most NOS is really up there in price.

Many thanks for the audition!!

Will be interesting to see how I hear and share with you and see how your choices compare.

Alex

FYI: the only thing I have tested is the stock 6N3P and the JJ ECC 82 via the adapter.
IMO the JJ ECC82 wins, hands down. Clear, crisp, articulate etc...Quite a difference here..

I found nine brands I can lend you, I want to clean them and run them all through my tester. I believe they range in price from $20-$200 each or so. No GE’s 🤪

This morning our wonderful French door Samsung refrigerator decided to develop an internal leak so I need to shop tomorrow for a different brand.
