Experience with Electro Harmonix 12au7 gold pins?
just 4, but I'd like the internal sections matched as well as matched between tubes 
RIP Robert Palmer
You guys should pick up "Sneakin' Sally Through the Alley" from 1974.Its nothing like his 80's hits (which I enjoy as a guilty pleasure tremendously).Anyway, another tragic loss.RIP 
Reynaud Magic Stand, spikes on carpet?
I Have Trente's on 22" sand filled, four-post non-welded Target Clones. They are quite inert. I am curious about using the Magic stands, but right now my ear is about even with the top of the woofer bracket, I just can't see the speakers needing t...

Jolida and B&W Nautilus 805
I have had great luck with The Electro-Harmonix tubes.I own a set of their el-34s that I stick in my Rogue from time to time. It is Auto Bias, and set up for the bigger bottles, and I know that the little 34s are being run hard, but it's a nice ch... 
Jolida and B&W Nautilus 805
Hey Joe!I have to disagree with Trelja, but with a Caveat:I owned the 805 for quite a while, and drove them well with 30 push-pull triode watts from a Rogue Tempest, and a Cary SLI-80 sig, I had great results, but with 6550 or kt-88 tubes.The el-3...

integrated tube reccommendations
Keith.Hit my thread link in the above post.I agree that the Cary SE stuff probably does.But, from the sound of your post, it isn't clear that:A) you were comparing Tempest to SLI-80 SIG, and not just some Rogue you heard somewhere, some time ago, ... 
integrated tube reccommendations
FWIW, I got a good deal on the Cary SLI-80 signature, about a year ago.I decided to give it a try, and man, it is the best looking, most quality-exuding piece I'fe ever owned. IT is beautifully made, that is for sure. I put the Rogue in the corner...
