Also you really should try and find some M-series amps. I like them best of all PG amps.

Thanks guys.

Yes I'd want to find M series but the right ones have to come across at the right time. I had an m44, let it go, regretting it now, but I'll find more.

Not too many high end amps like some of you... But I only started snorting PG again less than 4 months ago. Dabling into other recreational brands too... You know.. When you're tempted off the LCD... But my main abuse is the M line. Fell off the Wagon. I have been PG free for 20 years...

Gonna need more shelving.

I also abuse other things.

What do I want?

Lots of things.

Standard answer hehehe

But I have question. With everyone hoarding amps on shelves and whatnot, with most of them having the leaky cap syndrome, would it not make sense in REMOVING the old caps? Either putting new ones on then and there, or just removing the oldies to prevent the juice from leaking on the board? Haven't come across the idea/topic in all my perusing around the msg board.

Either that, or storing the amp so that the caps are 'right side up'? So.. right side up for MPS/MS/ZX/ZPA and upside down for Ms?

It makes perfect sense and that's what I do. They're so easy to pull, there's no excuse.
When I get my hands on an old PG amp I pull the caps and replace them when I get round to it.

Most my amps sit on a shelf in my garage where I like to look at them over a glass of whiskey 8)

My least favorite (to look at) amp, the ZX450 is going in my ride. It's most practical of all O.S. PG amps and more powerful than the M50 and MS275 I pulled from my trunk.

Haha yea. My biggest problem is my wife. She keeps asking me "so when are you going to sell them?" I'm like, sell? What?

I do plan to put the ms-1k ta and Frank into an install when I get my dream car. Frank will run components active and ms-1k to run a coupe,of small subs. :P

Itchi, yea it's hard for someone to tell you that they have a big collection...

Walk into the closet and find her vise(shoes/purses/we all have something) and notice that she has so many, can only wear one at a time when is she going to start selling them? Repeat every other week JUST to the point that her eyes glow, not to the point that lazers come out of her eyes.

I don't suppose it surprises anyone I am single huh?

Mine has over 100 pairs of shoes, all mint. And she has about 384538765387 books. Ever move 293487398543975 books? You need a 53' trailer and a triaxle.

My stash is now starting to flex the shelves. Might need to go buy another set of industrial shelves from Costco, like I have for my PCs and servers.

Which is why you need to add the RT66 and Octane LE I have up for sale to your collection!

Some of my shelves are also starting to bow. I'm using a cabinet that came with the house but I'm seriously thinking of upgrading. Only thing holding me back is my wife wants to move again. She hates where we live but selling and buying again does not sound fun to me.

That's why I always buy shelves. Handier.. and those commercial grade ones, from Costco, good for an insane amount of weight. Fully adjustable to height, using wedges, and can be on kick ass casters. Just need to wrap things though, or keep in boxes..

Cabinets are great too.. except when you have to move eheheh.

Books yea those suck. I had a buddy and his girl move to new york city and they were both readers. And their apartment was on the 7th floor, with no elevator or ac in july.... I have never been as sore as I was the next day in my life.
