We all have our pet peeves… mine these days is class D and perhaps amps without tubes in general
… perhaps I just like the bias required to run valves, thinking (as always) we are all just works in progress.

Sonic preference is very different from making the same arguments against videos for last 4 years
Sonic preference is very different to all of us.. no matter what. Nothing is right or wrong. Most important is to enjoy what’s sounds best for ones own preference, right?!?
The Blackburn Mullards or Telefunken ecc82 smooth plate(smooth anode sheets not corrugated) 're the best midrange.

the E88CC are 6DJ8/6922 not 12AU7 also as in your previous post the ECC801S are 12AT7 so you should go with the Mullards
And those videos almost always turn me off. Oh *that's* the sound you are enthusiastically talking about? Yeah, well...there goes the hyperbole, indeed. It's like the air is let out of the balloon.
Indeed, great sounding video, I appreciate it as well. Well done, Ron!
yes this has been documented by you for four years to the point of boredom and zero value addition to the forum. Welcome back to your disruptive ways of derailing a thread! Every time you promised you wouldn’t do it again…well leopard and spots

Mildly surprised by this as I have invariably found Telefunkens to impart a somewhat more * Brightly Lit* presentation especially where compared with Mullards
Lol , AL you re fined
Your punishment consists of standing in the corner for 1O minutes while watching you tube system videos .

Videos are a very polarized topic
I love videos and have leaned plenty from them
yet to some it’s hated so. Kedar sends me videos all the time and wow they are amazing.
to make my point these are world class top of the mountain systems , if not for his videos I would never have seen or heard them.
And it’s not just his many are kind to share and I thank them all.
to say they are boring is insulting to me , BUT we each have a view to be respected
my buck three eighty view

If videos are not capable of letting you know whether a system has a 3 db roll off or a 10 db roll off , you can certainly question the importance of videos .
But i appreciate it when somebody has set up his / her system and makes a accompanying video .

Videos may not let us hear as if we were there
But if the video is done well you know many aspects of that system
Ron has been kind enough to share a few how many were great ?
to me his tape on two sets of speakers was great
now all
Seemed good but not at that level this is what a video can let us hear. to have the stand out as he did tells me what it can do.
Kedar sent me a few that are amazing and some from others not good to me. but we can tell what maybe missing or not set up well

Actually, I made a compliment to Ron about his video -- on his thread. No derailment there. Sure I should not have made a snide comment about other videos, but I didn't start a disruptive discussion in defense of those. It was you and others. So if you stop, the derailment of the thread stops.
yes and used that post for your usual agenda. You wished him no compliment, it was a just a conduit for you to say what you always wanted to about iPhone videos. Stop being dishonest
No, Ked, I honestly wished to compliment Ron. I was genuinely and positively surprised about the quality of the video and delighted about what it suggests as to the sound of the system. It doesn't speak to your character if you suggest more sinister motivations.
you are lying.
These are your comments the first two where you complimented him:
“Most of the other videos on WBF sound pretty bad and embarrassing,
I suppose you used real mikes for this recording, and not an iPhone?
And those videos almost always turn me off. Oh *that's* the sound you are enthusiastically talking about? Yeah, well...there goes the hyperbole, indeed. It's like the air is let out of the balloon.”
You had no interest in complimenting his system
i'd comment on the video, or....maybe....even watch it. but i don't want to get my peepee whapped.
i sometimes consider watching a system video.......but......then.......lay down until the feeling passes.

I think actually these are Mullards I must've gotten for the input stage of the VTL amps. But there is no discernible writing on the inside on the tube. Does MM stand for Mullard?
