Twelve Step Program

1) We admitted we were powerless over music and our lives 
   became enjoyable.

2) Came to believe that we shall only judge our music reproduction
   system by enjoying live acoustic music.

3) Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to music.

4) Made a searching and fearless inventory of our tube stash.

5) Admitted to G-d, to ourselves, and another human being 
   the components in our "dream system".

6) Were entirely ready to have music remove all our stress.

7) Humbly asked tubes to remove our solid state amplification 
   systems shortcomings.

8) Made a list of all the tube components we have tried, and 
   became willing to purchase the best.

9) Made direct trails to purchase said tube amplification 
   whenever possible, except when to do so would cause a divorce.

10) Continued to take inventory of our tube stash and 
    promptly purchased NOS tubes we didn't have already.

11) Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our 
    music reproduction system.  Praying only for the knowledge 
    of music's will for us and the power to carry it out.

12) Having had a spiritual awakening after listening to SE tube gear, 
    we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice 
    these principles in all our affairs.
