12AU7 and 12AX7 long black plates vs short black plates. Any difference ?

I run RCA 5751 black plate triple micas in my tube DAC and 1950's Mullard  12AX7 halo getter long plate  in my phono stage. Very happy with both sets sourced from Brent Jessee.

when using AI, use the fewest words to ask a question. Kind of like negotiation with your wife, you don't use words that will upset the apple cart. AI is absolute with results that pertain to science, math, medical data, etc. Ensure your not using an AI Overview, which can be wishy washy.

That's why I tell my wife; "You'll get what you want and like it!"

Sabrina Carpenter's 2025 album cover for, "Man's Best Friend", which shows her on her knees with a man towering above her with a hand full of her hair, is iconic. Sign of the Times. 

It's like we are back in the early 80's again, without the feminism. Sabrina would have given Madonna a run for her money in those days. They have a lot in common, they are both real blondes and both are quite easy - if you know what I mean! - or at least that is their shtick. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Per David Byrne; same as it ever was.

Occasionally, to be funny, I utilize a heavy manly voice like Charlton Heston commanding well-heeled sheep and regale my wife with a "misogynistic quote of the day!" Resigned to the fact that she is female, she takes it sportingly well.

Whenever I do that, my wife gives me that 'Oh, really...' look, so I always finish with;

"If that’s all right with you..."
