OK, so unofficial poll....given what you can see on the auction site, knowing nothing about whether they are actually functional, what would be your maximum bid? I have absolutely no interest in them, but just for the fun of it, my fantasy bid would max at $150 each. http://bid.bidfta.com/cgi-bin/mnlist.cgi?mcmann311/category/ALL

Or just change your username. Yea, to something like Jo_Steph_, or Mr Ketchup, or Jim Nasium, something like that.....

Joe, let us know if you get them, and then more pics please. They look great.

I have a ton of tubes I'll never use, and am listing them slowly here and elsewhere. This is for (4) vintage Tung Sol 5881 tubes, made in the US, not the Russian reissue.....They are gorgeous, and all test very strong on my Knight tube tester. There are basically two pair, one pair just slightly stronger than the other. You can see the date codes in the photo. Want to sell all 4 together for $100.00 plus ship. Please PM me with interest or questions. Thanks.

Sweet tubes, NOS in original boxes. Just tested tonight, all at 90 or better where 55 is considered good on my Knight tube tester. $25.00 for all four of them, plus ship. Please PM me with interest.

Joe, it was suggested here that you read the reviews of various shippers that provide a bid. I would second that. Those would be on the U Ship site. You are gonna love those LSI's. I have two pair, one in my garage for summer parties and outdoor listening, and one in my basement work space. Those are one of the nicest pairs I've seen in a while. Great score.

I guess the question is, are you going to listen through headphones/from your PC/through a DAC/out to standard speakers? All of the above? I have tried all of the Premium services both with and without my Schiit Bifrost Uber DAC, and determined that Spotify Premium is excellent, has a great interface, tons of options, and is probably way more than I really need. Paying more for Tidal Hi Fi was not justifiable for me.

U Ship has gotten a couple of favorable reviews here lately.

Water rings are ALWAYS extra, dontcha know.....

My wife and I love the show, Bob Odenkirk is hugely entertaining. Unfortunately, anything following "Hoboken Squat Cobbler" is a letdown....Anxious to see what happens to Jimmy next week.....

Rog, if I didn't already have two titanium hips, I "might" consider it, but thanks.

Basement room - Drywall, acoustic ceiling. 21 x 16, ceiling 8 ft. Audio gear on the long wall. Short carpet, upholstered couch and chairs. Acoustic curtains floor to ceiling on the short walls.

We got rather bold and would ride them standing up, with a long rope on the handles to steer.....Considering some of the steep hills we would venture out on, I'm pretty lucky I didn't break a bone....

This is my favorite sled....

Obviously you are a glutton for punishment.....

I don't keep a daily log of use, but I keep a log of the tubes I have and whether I've tested them, and the results.

Yep, it's pretty darn easy to get a new account, not a whole lot of "security" around that.....

At first blush, this looks a bit odd...

Ice storm today, then snow....perfect combination.

Right, Mark's "insecure". I've never heard Mark be "profane". You should share the PM, I'm sure the Irish lashing is a great read. Actually, Mark denies having sent a different email. He maintains it was the same as everyone else received. Sure, his denial just continues to fit his pattern.

Thanks Dean, and considering your terrible customer service and awful listening and reading skills, I would have to say the same for you. I would never "share" a PM from anyone, regardless of the content, as it is counter to the accepted protocol with respect to PM's. Now, you may have no problem with that, seeing as though you are probably Mark's sock puppet anyway.

This is funny. You really think that Mark doesn't know what the word "verbiage" means? Considering what goes on around this place, slapping Mark for "trolling" is pitiful. I guess it's only distasteful when you know who's doing it. I thought you left?

IMHO Keurig's should be damned anyway....several European countries are banning the pods because they are a serious pollutant. I agree.
