Today, February 8th, is the Chinese New Year Day of 2016. I wish my friends here and abroad, my readers and fellow audiophiles a most rewarding year.
Now, let us all get down to gleeful Monkey Business!

From now on, classical recommendations will be delivered in an article. For the latest one, click on Bruckner. For the two before, click on Bach and Brahms below. For even older articles, roll down and click on the Label "Classical Music - Streaming" or "Classical Music - Basic Repertoire". For older CD and SACD recommendations, there is also a separate label "Classical Music - CD and SACD"
For the one before, click on Bach
Going back one more, click on Brahms
Amazingly engaging Cello works by Offenbach, from a master cellist
Bridge has several volumes of their recitals at the Library of Congress. The Beethoven boxes are immortal, never surpassed. Very reasonable sound.
Temporarily unavailable
This very early Reference Recording LP commands a good price. The CD was not issued by RR, but rko, and I think has been discontinued. The music is strange , best known in HK for 大鼓跌落地.

Cheaptubeaudio has had a long history of advocating reasonably priced but excellent tube gears, particularly Singled-Ended Triodes. This Blog however covers a lot more than SET, and is not exclusively tube-related. Cheaptubeaudio prioritizes coverage of unusual and rare gears, particularly vintage ones, on which little info can be found on the internet.

My Classical Music Blog
I keep a small Classical Music Blog, to record my impressions of the (few) live music events I have attended. Occasionally, if I find time to attend other arts events, they are duly recorded too.
Reviews of CDs, LPs and DVDs I listen to appear in this Audio Blog, however.

Comments are welcome any time. After moderation, they shall be published.
For Questions
As a rule, don't forget to tell me what you use, and what do you think of the sound, and reservations if any!
A. Questions related to an article/review
(1) Click on Comment (under each article) and post your comment or question; (2) After moderation, the comment/question is published and answered under the article. Hopefully, my response shall be prompt, but give it a few days. (3) Don't forget to tell me what you use, and what do you think of the sound, and reservations if any! My answers may not mean much if I don't know what you're using and how you feel.
B. Questions NOT related to an article/review
If your question has nothing to do with any of the articles, just pick any article, no matter how irrelevant, and post your question. I will get it anyway, but I won't post it as a comment. Instead, if I can answer the question, I'll post both the question and answer in the Reply Section below, in Letters to the Editor-Reply. Again, don't forget to tell me what you use, and what do you think of the sound, and reservations if any! But not all questions get this treatment. Some are just too general to be answered.
C. Email (if necessary)
If your suggestion or comment is more of a private nature, you can email me at:
cheaptube@hotmail.com
Unless the subject is very close to my heart, I tend to be quite tardy in replying to individuals, and replying by email can be cumbersome. So, only if absolutely necessary.

NY 常用器材 Equipment I most often use in NY now
There are now 3 main Stations in my listening room. Any can drive the same amp and loudspeakers. They undergo frequent changes (in particular the analog playback setups). I use long interconnects between the preamps and amps to facilitate this matching.(Last revised Sept 15, 2019)

幾句話 About this Blog
I have been participating on the internet in various hifi sites for almost 20 years. Looking at things now makes one really weary of the word "progress".
In many ways I miss the earlier USENET newsgroups the most. Posting is super fast and the lack of picture hosting is a real blessing in many ways. Things were simpler then.
Then I created my own Yahoo Group (see link), but I really find the format cumbersome, and now only maintain the site for archival purposes. Who knows, one day I may re-vamp the thing, but too little time....
A few years ago, before the establishment of this blog, I had been active in review33, a site that still a useful second-hand forum (link below). Unfortunately, HK is small and people actually get to meet, which is NOT an advantage for an internet forum. The traffic evolved into 同仁活動, Chinese for insiders' game. There were few honest opinions, and feuds and flames developed over the littlest things. Then there were splinter groups, IMITATORS that are of even more of a 同仁活動 insider nature. That diluted everything and what got lost is HiFi. It would be fair to say most of the forums in HK now contain more junk than value.
Since then I have concentrated on my Blog. It is nice to be able to archive everything well and not let things get covered by waves of garbage. Writing articles take lot more than than posting in forums. Many have long periods of gestation and repeated revisions and editing. I hope you enjoy them.
在此閑話 Hi Fi, 清淡為主。讀時之樂與怒，在乎不在乎，看您自己。
覺得還可以的話，大可用心寫點東西，發表在那裡不重要，會是貢獻。但是，漫不經心地轉載或亂貼圖片，可以不必了吧！世界上啥都缺，就不缺二手報導和垃圾！
