| speaker cables under 1k for Harbeth 30.2XD? Check ads for used cable is save some money and burn-in process. I try several with my 30.1 and end up stay with Auditorium A23. also my set all tube gear so if you have SS I recommend Audience AU24SE | |
| Genelex Gold Lion KT 88 “burn circles”? Go test them before you turn on the amp. make sure it close in reading , if don’t have tester just buy new one . black or dark round is mean used lot , shiny is new look. better buy match tubes . | |
