Welcome to the IHoP

Read the description...they're not lying.

All the reviews I've read of the Yugoslavian tubes say they're great when they work, but they have a tendency to become microphonic at times. The Ei Golds are just hand selected ones for low noise and microphonics.

Those get good reviews as well.

Thanks Jim, I didn't think this was one of the places that lies on the description, but I wasen't sure.

Sounds like thats my next purchase.

All that needs to be said.

Swear to Christ ... it'll go something like this.

We'll talk in, sit down.

I'll say, "Look, before you even open up your cute little file there, I already know what you're going to say and judging by this very first thing I'm saying to you, you should know my answer. Now, cut to the chase, because I have places to be."

'Steven you son of a bitch can't you behave and be nice for thirty fucking seconds. God I hate going out in public with you.'

"Who pays for the house you live in? This guy."

'Fuck you.'

The the little French dentist lady will talk and I'll have to stop her and tell her to speak English. Then I'll get yelled at some more.

Then she'll finally say "You need your wisdom teeth out"

And I'll tell her "Your fucking hands aren't going anywhere near my mouth. Bye"

And I'll hear about the entire way home. Lucky for me I'm driving home, jumping in the 'roc, going golfing, then heading to work for most of the night.

Or if you don't need quite as much gain in the preamp section, there are new old stock GE 5751's around that also sound killer...with about 70% of the gain.

Since I'll be getting 2 of them, is it worth it to get the "Matching" test done for an extra 2 bucks??

[Chevy350TPI 12]

all of you people, esp Jingozian, can go to hell.  Even you Steve.

I never said 'nuffin.

I do like the color. It's different, everyone around here is white, black , or silver

Thanks, thats what I was going for. hehe. Though I just saw a T.I. video with that same color caddy in it, now people are going to think I did it because of that.

Now all he needs is to get another in Dr. Pepper Metallic Red

It's not critical, but it may be nice having them relatively close in transconductance.

Some people place way too much emphasis on tube matching, when in fact, close is usually good enough.

I need to go to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned.

[vladd 26]
