Bringing tube amps into repair to my local shop who always sent me home with a better amp to listen to.
What are your Eureka Moments in this Hobby?
OK so I did steal this term form @lordmelton
I wandered through midfi. Surround speakers, 5.1 set ups, eventually getting to Classe Pre / Pro, Parasound 5 channel amp, Bowers and Wilkens Nautilus 800 series speakers and M / K Subs. Then the best thing ever happened. My Classe SSP-800 Pre / Pro broke for the second time. So I ended up getting an Audionet Pre G-1 preamp. Eureka! What were your events?

Nice @jond . Just having a local repair shop is special. |
Replacing every fuse in my system with slugs was a BIG improvement in sound. And the ability to voice my system by using different metals has brought my system quite a bit closer to my ideal at a much lower cost than experimenting with component and cable upgrades. Unless you experience it yourself, I just don't think most of us realize how much the stock fuses compromise the sound. |
