Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube!

This is a case where one actually has to listen to the YouTube files before making pronouncements.

TycoDogg made a series of carefully recorded comparisons on YouTube between differing 6SN7 tubes utilizing the original Schiit Freya. Overall quality was quite high with noticeable differences shown, during my listening with Sennheiser HD630VB and 650 headphones over Audioquest Dragonfly Red and Jitterbug using my iPad. I used what I learned in retubing my Cary Slp05 preamp, buying Raytheon VT231’s from Brent Jessee. TycoDoggs work is remarkable and I highly recommend his videos to all interested in tube rolling.

In addition, where else can you hear well-recorded performances by JRAD, arguably even more musical than the band they are a tribute to? Got those uninitiated, they are Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, and they are stupendous.

Apologies to all! Because the Wolf von Langa videos are "back-to-back", I somehow posted the same url for both in my initial post.

This is the one that demonstrates the field-coil drivers so well - please give it a listen!

OK.  Now this thread has morphed to watching professionally recorded videos on youtube.  I occasionally enjoy watching cool old videos of concerts I wish I had been at when I was in college but wasnt.  

I don't have a good way of hooking youtube up to my system.  I do have some pretty good desktop speakers but don't want to watch at my desk, I want to watch on my 77" TV and primary sound system.  I assume others have spent time working on this.   What is the best way to do this?

No such thing as a YouTube demo. Common listening through you iPad or phone, you can not hear a difference. 

Listening on YouTube to determine actual sound quality of a piece of audio equipment is of course useless…… It’s similar to try to discern the overall quality of a high end car or camera or even a restaurant range ( I’m a chef / restaurateur).

You can get an idea of the looks & features & see if it’s something you might want to pursue but that’s it. There are simply too many potential points of degradation along the way. Unfortunately w/ fewer & fewer actual good quality stores to listen stuff in person, it makes it difficult. I think now the audio shows are a good alternative although the sound quality at them can be quite varied.
