Members blue2blue Posted March 18, 2009 Members Share Posted March 18, 2009 These should work swell with the JBL speakers I fixed up. They had these big fabric-papery cone things in the way of the little energy gun in the middle of the drivers so I carefully removed all that and I can't wait to hear how it sounds with these tubes in my amp. They'll fit in the Kenwood I bought in the 80s, won't they? It doesn't have any tubes now so I figure adding them will really help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those stupid paper cones don't do anything but add friction to the airflow coming out of the magnet. Your JBL's should sound a lot more open and free now. :thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cooterbrown Posted March 18, 2009 Members Share Posted March 18, 2009 I'd like to find that guy and punch him right between the eyes.I know there are people who really are that stupid, but that's got to be a joke, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you take the word "joke" above and substitute it with the word "scam", you'd be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Beck Posted March 18, 2009 Members Share Posted March 18, 2009 :D This guy/gal has to be a comic genius... too funny. They took the listing down. Here's a screen shot. For some reason I can't get it to come up by clicking on it, so just copy and paste the URL. http://www.unknownhighway.com/images/uploads/vacuumtubes.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMS Author MikeRivers Posted March 19, 2009 CMS Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 Here's a screen shot. Thanks for saving and posting that. I thought I missed the fun. The sad thing is that there are some people who could actually be serious about this. For some reason I can't get it to come up by clicking on it, so just copy and paste the URL. Let's see if this works: Vacuumless Tubes for Sale The syntax, leaving out the asterisks before "url" put there so the illustration won't work, is: [*url=http://whatever.the.link.is]The text you want the reader to click on[/*url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Beck Posted March 19, 2009 Members Share Posted March 19, 2009 Yeah, I tried it a couple different ways. When I click on your link I get "Internal Server Error" When I copy and paste the URL from google it comes up fine. Is that happening for everyone or do I have some issue on my end? I can't see the pic that kurfu posted using my link. I just see a place holder until I right click and choose "Show Picture." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMS Author MikeRivers Posted March 20, 2009 CMS Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 Yeah, I tried it a couple different ways. When I click on your link I get " Internal Server Error" When I copy and paste the URL from google it comes up fine. Is that happening for everyone or do I have some issue on my end? This morning, it works the same way here as it did for you - Internal server error. But clicking on the link seems to bring up the page. Maybe there's an internal server error, whatever that is. I wonder if it only worked for me when I posted it because it was in my browswer cache. I hope the other links I've posted over the years work for other people. I haven't had any other complaints. Maybe they're just too polite, or they just don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
