They test in the bad region which really surprises me. I haven't tried a pair of 6AS7 in the tester recently. So maybe I should try that (if I have a pair... pretty sure I at least have some 6080's). I also have another pair of 5998's that I could try. The whole file would be great. I will send you my email by PM.

Thanks Nate. The 6AS7 data is the same as in my manual. I will try those settings for the 5998. The only difference seems to be the sensitivity setting. Since it should be set lower on the 5998, doesn't this means that the tubes should actually test lower than they would on the 6AS7 settings or am I oversimplifying or inverting things? In any case, I will try it out.

Raffy is looking for a pair of TS 5998's for his SP and I have a pair that are supposed to be NOS. I would be happy to help him out but I don't know how to test these on my tube tester. I have a B&K 747B. I tried testing them with the 6as7 settings but they both test low this way. Since they are not equivalent to the 6as7's, I am not so surprised (I think this has happened with every pair of 5998's I have tested this way). So can anyone help me/us out? Pretty please.

I wasn't happy when I had to stop it half way through and go to a seminar.

Bought two tickets to Porcupine Tree in Houston. I am a copycat.

I am pretty sure they forgot a few categories like the third dimension, weight, multi touch...

Foolish me

Porcupine Tree tickets: nice!

I have a separate computer for each of my tasks: email, LaTex, web browsing, Adobe Illustrator, itunes... I thought one should always get separate components.

I agree with Mike. I just don't understand how reading on the ipad could be any better than reading on a computer.

Happy Birthday!

Subscribed to this thread and eagerly waiting for a monkey's opinion.

It's about time! I brought my Stello stack (DA100 + HP100) to the office today. I like. I think I will keep it here since I haven't been listening to them much at home.

Hoping this will happen.

Amazon Accepts Macmillan’s Demand for Higher E-Book Prices - NYTimes.com Damn ipad. I rather enjoyed the $9.99 price tag for Kindle new releases.

Flew back to Houston after being gone for almost two weeks - yeah! It is good to be home. Now I have to prepare my class for tomorrow.

If you happen to be in the mood for good ribs/BBQ while you are there, this place is damn tasty (it is in Somerville near the T - red line). Redbones barbeque

Those pork ribs are making me hungry.

Had a good time hanging out with JP, Al and Ric. It's too bad that you NorCal'ers will be losing JP, he is a cool guy (Al and Ric aren't too bad either ).

Yeah Dinny!!! :jbl:

Too expensive?

I would buy one if it had a digitizer pen option, but without that, I really have no use for one (already owning a Macbook Pro, slate tablet pc, Kindle DX and Palm Pre). I do think it a great machine for the average consumer who just surfs the web, checks email and perhaps types up a term paper or two. Certainly seems to be a netbook killer. I just hope that Apple doesn't stop producing ``real'' computers.

Very very impressive!
