Aha! The 'WE Silvers' eh? :-)


Yeah, that pair of clowns going on about it clearly never built and
debugged a tube amp if they think I'm going to plug in over a thousand
dollars worth of WE 300B while I tune the amp. Even popping a
Silvertone at a 100 bucks (those are killermatched tubes from Koji)
would be unacceptable, so the fact that those are in the amp tells you
it has several hundred hours of blameless operation on the clock, and
the WE are about to migrate from the boxes to the amp.

Those two clowns are also illiterate. It was pretty clear from my
exchange with Sander, a guy who *without being told* knows that if I
have the covers off, I'm not likely to be working on the amp with WE
300B plugged in, that the WE tubes were therefore in the boxes, not on
the amp. Morons (those two PORGs, not Sander who is a Dutchman and thus
by definition very bright) are everywhere, and they get more moronic
with every passing year.

Picture rich though - I *like* that....


Happy to oblige, this once. I'm not so big on comics as you are; I tend
to assume I'm talking to intelligent people who understand plain
English, which admittedly on the usenet is a bit of a gamble.

Apologies for the crossposting, which I know you dislike, but those two
useless twerps Pinkerton and Wieck sprayed their envy over more than
just this conference.
