    If you are beginner piano and want to be a real pianist, a selection of good piano books is really a necessity. You can spend as much time as you want to practicing scales, but it is simply not enough. If all that you do is practice your scales, you will probably get bored with playing piano, and when you get bored, your playing will suffer.

    To keep interested in piano try playing songs that you enjoy. It will be more fun and allot more interesting. It is important to keep your attention and it will show in your music.

    There are so many good piano books out there for piano learning regardless of your preferences. You can find books from jazz to classical and everywhere in the middle. Staying interested is important.

    I prefer an assortment of piano books. I have all the classical masters but I also broaden my library to include jazz, hip hop and other more popular songs. I am an entertainer and I must entertain now don’t I. It is really a gas to play at family functions and for friends. It is helpful when they make requests that I know a wide variety of musics.

    Don’t shy away from music that you don’t like. You need a wide variety of a styles and genre to be able to please the crowd. Who knows, maybe you will get to like Mamma’s Little Baby Love Shorten Bread! I even own piano books filled with songs that I don’t even much care for.

    When you have studied enough books about piano and looked at enough songs you will begin to get that you don’t even need sheet music to play. You develop an eye to go with your ear. You will hear something on the radio and be able to plunk it out before you know it. The ah-ah moment will eventually come for your as it did for me.

    After a while music will just play in your head. You will hear a song just once and you will see the notes in your mind. If you want to duplicate what you see in your head then you will need the sheet music. You will be able to visualize how it was arranged by then. But you will probably want to create your own sound. When this happens you will not need your books anymore.

    Your time and effort will be rewarded by beautiful piano playing. Do not give it up. It is a life long devotion that has gotten me to play what I love.

  • Natural Diabetes Treatment and Blood Sugar Control Tips?

    Diabetes has reached epidemic proportions in the United States affecting a huge percentage of people annually. Many people are not aware of their personal risk for diabetes (or diabetes-related complications if they are ALREADY a diabetic). Type II diabetes, or adult onset diabetes, can be prevented or delayed. If you need to just manage your diabetes read this article.

    Measuring the levels of your blood sugar after a fasting glucose blood test is used for diagnosis and to determine if you are at risk or have diabetes. An elevated blood sugar of 126/140 mg/dl for two or more consecutive blood tests after fasting is an indication that you are a diabetic or pre-diabetic and should seek immediate medical treatment. A normal blood sugar level is 70 to 110 mg/dl on a regular basis.

    Just what causes Type II diabetes you might ask. Type II occurs generally in older persons who are obese (but not always) and do not take physical care of themselves. They may also have inherited a predisposition for the disease. Their fasting blood sugar glucose levels are constantly over the accepted limits which are determined by their doctors.

    Taking proactive steps like lifestyle changes like adding regular exercise and controlling diet can be very beneficial in controlling diabetes or pre diabetes. The old and tired phrase of getting 20 minutes of exercise a day still holds true. Your focus should be to control your blood sugar to prevent this chronic and life altering disease.

    As always educate yourself. Talk to your doctor and the druggist. You may be at risk and not even know it. Have blood tests done regularly. New products and services are released everyday that focus on helping Type II patients manage their blood sugar levels. Also be on the lookout for free testing offered at malls and drug stores in your area.

    Weight loss surgery such as Gastric Bypass or GBS has been known to help normalize blood sugar in obese patients. This new development is too astounding to just overlook. It has been reported that after surgery 80 percent of patients experience normal blood sugar levels.

    There are some homeopathic alternatives to consider as well like vitamins and supplements. Be warned though that any home treatments should be in combination with your doctor.

    Avoiding and controlling diabetes is all about blood sugar control. That is the trick. The million dollar question is how can you do this effectively on an on going basis and still live a productive and rewarding life.

  • 5 Fat Blasting Tips on How to Lose 50 pounds in 6 Months

    For fat blasting tips on how to lose 50 pounds in 6 months, below are 5 essential ways you can try now to lose the 50 pounds -

    1. Get into protein like tuna, salmon, eggs and low fat dairy foods. Not only protein is beneficial for muscle development – protein has a higher satiety ranking. In other words, protein foods will help you stay ‘fuller’ for longer. Compared to foods that are high in carbohydrate and fat,protein rich foods are more effective at suppressing something called ghrelin, a hormone that is secreted by the stomach to stimulate appetite.

    2. Eliminate DEAD processed, empty calorie foods and drinks. So what’s empty calories? There are the kind of foods that supply us with calories and little else. The next time you’re grocery shopping try to avoid the following : white bread, white rice, cereal, pasta and fried food with breading; Ingredients beginning with the word ‘enriched’, it has less than 5 grams of fiber and/or more than 8 grams of sugar; ready to eat in a bag or box that comes with ingredients you can’t pronounce; lastly, ditch the fizzy drinks. Processed, empty calorie foods and drinks burn less calories, rapidly increase and decrease your blood sugar levels, resulting in hunger and fatigue which will slow your metabolism. Instead choose, wholesome, fresh foods over dead processed foods – you will get full on fewer calories and more importantly you will get loaded with nutritional benefits!

    3. Don’t cut out your favorite treats. Fat loss is not about depriving yourself of the foods you enjoy, rather it is about eating in moderation and managing it sensibly. So try to limit cakes, pastries, chocolate, creamy biscuits, potato chips, soft drinks, alcohol, fruit juices and other high fat foods to once a week. If you find these kinds of foods too tempting, keep them out of the pantry to discourage over-eating or better yet, get into low fat snacks. You never know, you might just end up loving them!

    4. A smart breakfast starts at night! You’ve probably heard that you should never skip out on breakfast and fiber – this is true. But if you needed more convincing, a study has shown that participants who ate 10g of fiber at dinner reported feeling less hungry in the hours after their next morning meal than those who skipped the roughage. The extended effect of fiber appears to result from the way fiber is broken down in the large intestines. The big benefit is – you will be less likely to raid the office or pantry candy bowl by lunch. Therefore, stick to simple rule of filling half your plate with veggies – you can’t go wrong.

    5. As you improve your fitness – alternate short bursts of high intensity with lower intensity activity. These kind of workout will fry and boost your fitness faster than exercising at a constant, moderate pace. For example, try 30 seconds of sprint interval for every 5 minutes of treadmill time, or in the pool, 1 speed lap after a few slower laps.

    The above tips are ways you can combat your fat loss now – however, be patient with your results. If you are consistent and follow the guidelines, you can lose the 50 pounds in 6 months or more. But expect the lows and highs of fat loss. And finally, it really depends on how discipline and careful you are with your health.

  • Why You Should Tone While Losing Weight

    It seems that everyone is trying to lose weight these days and there seems to be a product suited for each individual. Although many of these diets will claim to reveal secrets about the best way to lose weight be suspicious. Some claims may be successful while others ultimately are not.

    In most cases you really don’t need to purchase any huge, so-called weight loss secret in order to lose weight. They key is really just to watch what you eat. It takes 3,500 calories to gain a pound of weight. You therefore need to reduce the number of calories you eat by 3500 in order to lose a pound of weight. Reduce your intake by 500 calories a day and you will lose a pound in a week. This is simple in theory, but not always so simple in practice.

    Many people have found this scientific approach successful and have lost a great deal of weight. Some will have reduced more calories for faster weight loss while others will include an exercise program to increase their weight loss. Combining a reduced calorie diet with an exercise program will accelerate the weight loss process. Any plan you choose you will have made lifestyle changes that will eventually lose the weight.

    Sometimes a person will lose quite a few pounds and nobody notices. This can be rather discouraging. Often, the reason no one notices is because although you’ve lost weight, your body looks very much the same from the outside. You may have less body fat, but since your body is not toned, it is overall not noticeable to others. Your clothes will fit better but no one really sees that.

    We can conclude that it is as important that you tone your muscles while you loose weight. If you haven’t exercised in some time it is also important to start slowly. With the right combination of diet and exercise you will see results. You can’t help it. Think of exercise and diet as your weight loss cure for a flabby body.

    You can start toning your muscles while you loose weight by walking. Begin by walking about half an hour a minimum of three days a week. Gradually increase the time you walk as you gain endurance. Not only will the walking help in toning your muscles while you loose weight, it will also help you to lose additional weight.

    You can tone specific parts of your body too! Light weights can tone your arms. Leg exercises like squats and lunges tone your legs, thighs and butt. Crunches work your abdominal muscles. Begin with ten repetitions of each and remember to start slow.

    It’s also important to know that when you are working on toning your muscles while you loose weight, you should alternate the days that you work on certain muscle groups. For example, do abdominal and arm exercises one day, and the next day do leg and butt exercises. This allows each muscle group to rest and repair for a day, which further aides in building muscle.

  • Imagine: You with Less Stress

    Relaxation plays in a key roll in leading a healthy happy life. Without relaxation it is difficult to stay on task, make good decisions, and be productive. Relaxation also has many physical benefits which include lower blood pressure, reduce muscle tension, and increased blood flow to muscle groups to name a few. Some people think relaxation takes hours, but relaxation can take place in as little as ten minutes a day.

    Work, marriage and money are just a few things which can cause stress in peoples day to day lives. Often people get so busy and think they have no time to relax. They can also be fooled into thinking that they need to do something extreme or go someplace such as going on vacation to relax. These people are mistaken, relaxation can happen at home, in the office or while driving. The key is to train the mind to relax.

    There are many ways in which you can relax. Finding your method is really your biggest obstacle, but it is easy, just think about what you enjoy most. Maybe you like listening to music, reading, meditating or walking. Any of these activities can be a relaxation method and can be scaled down to as little as ten minutes.

    Something simple like watching TV, listening to music, surfing the web and reading offer a break from regular day to day situations. Books can create a world completely different from your own as can a good movie or song. Each of these activities help your mind escape into a visually exciting place.

    Meditation can help you learn to control your body’s reaction to stress through reflection and deep breathing exercises. These techniques must be learned and practiced regularly to insure maximum results. You can achieve full relaxation through ten minutes of meditation, and most people have ten minutes to spare in their busy lives.

    Other people prefer to hit the gym to relax. Some like to run, walk or lift weights. Others might prefer a cycling, kick boxing or tai chi class. Running and walking burn off excessive built up energy, however not everyone wants to run a marathon. For them there are other sorts of classes which sole purpose is relaxation such as yoga. Many people choose to skip the classes and gym all together and simply walk their dogs in the park.

    Your body will tell you what it likes and what it doesn’t like, you just need to learn to listen. Take note of what worked and what didn’t while you were practicing different relaxing techniques. If one doesn’t work don’t be afraid to try a different approach. Make sure to keep yourself motivated by reminding yourself you will be healthier and happier in the end and think how nice it is to do something enjoyable.

    Learning something new is always a challenge however once you get the hang of it, it is like riding a bike, your body won’t forget how. It is important to find an activity which you enjoy and know you will stick with, but you must make a conscious effort to remind and train your body to relax while performing this task. It may take time, but in the end the rewards will be worth it.

  • What You Should Know About Stretch Marks Treatments

    by Maia Pells

    Stretch marks occur because of several reasons. In the case of stretch marks on women, pregnancy is one of them. Another would be due to rapid weight gain or loss. There is nothing bad about getting pregnant or losing weight but when skin is constantly stretched, it will be difficult for it to go back to its original state afterwards. In fact, you will see some kind of designs that have formed on the skin and these are called stretch marks.

    Men get stretch marks as well. These marks usually form on the upper arms, lower back, thighs, buttocks, hips, breasts, and abdominal area of the body. There are a number of stretch marks treatments out there so this skin problem has become easier to cure.

    What are stretch marks?

    The Stretch Mark Color – At first the stretch mark’s color is reddish or purplish but as time passes, the skin will become glossy and the color will turn into silver or white. Stretch marks are formed in the dermis which is the middle layer of the skin. This part of the skin is actually elastic and helps the skin keep its shape. However, if the dermis is constantly stretched and has reached its limit, it will break and form into stretch marks.

    Scarred Tissues – Stretch marks are also one type of skin scars. Aside from the reasons like pregnancy and rapid weight gain, heredity, lifestyle, and nutrition can also contribute to the increased development of these marks.

    What are the stretch mark treatments?

    Topical Ointments – The good thing about stretch marks is that they fade overtime. Those that don’t fade can also be treated by using one of the stretch marks treatments available today. One kind of treatment would be applying topical creams or ointments. Some creams use synthetic chemicals like hydroxyl to heal while other formulas use natural ingredients. These kinds of creams penetrate into the inner layers of the skin to tighten, firm and moisturize. The natural formulas also encourage the production of collagen and elastin to strengthen the skin and keep it from breaking in the future.

    Laser Treatment – The second type of treatment that can help remove stretch marks is laser scar removal. This type of procedure is minimally invasive and does not involve scarring or incisions. The treatment works by focusing a controlled beam of laser on the affected area.

    The laser will break down scar tissues and once these are dissolved, new skin cells and collagen will start to develop in the area that was once occupied by the scar tissues. It will not take you a long time to heal after the treatment and it is more affordable in comparison to surgery.

    Abdominoplasty – The last type of procedure is called abdominoplasty or tummy tuck. This treatment was actually meant to remove excess skin or fat from the abdominal area but surgeons have observed that stretch marks are also significantly reduced after this treatment.

    What You Should Know – Although this type of method is effective in removing old or aged stretch marks, the healing time is longer and the costs are higher as well. One should also consult a doctor before undergoing a serious operation like this. Even if you have chosen one of these stretch marks treatments to get rid of your scars, it is important that you exercise and eat the right food because this will help your skin stay healthy.

  • Elements of a Smoking Habit

    Let’s pretend you wanted form a habit. And not just some wimpy habit, but a major, mind controlling, and life changing habit behavior. Where do you start to make it a really strong habit that will feel impossible to break? There are three basic ways we learn habits; emotions, authority figures, and repetition.

    Let’s use an example.

    Now, let’s pick a person for our example. How about you when you were 10-14 years old. And for this example, let’s use the habit of smoking.

    When you were in that age range we can assume you were learning about your life and how you fit into it. You may not have felt as sure about yourself.

    Maybe you felt self-conscious, dependent on others, powerless, not good enough, or something like these. We’ll refer to this as feeling “bad”. Now, this does not necessarily mean you felt miserable, but did you feel as “good” as you wanted to feel? Did you feel as “good” as you believed other people felt?

    Possibly, (probably) not. Which would mean you wanted to feel better, or at least as good as you thought other people feel. What would make you feel better? That depends on the influences in your life to that point.

    How does a person learn things like that? Emotions, authority figures and repetition. You probably saw authority figures smoking – parents, family, friends, role models, and of course, advertisements. Smoking is perceived as tough, strong, independent, self-assured, and unique. All the “good” feelings you were feeling a lack of.

    This would start a feeling in your mind, the beginning of a craving. A part of you that believes smoking is what your life needs to fix the bad feeling. Not just in a “knowing” way, but a “feeling” way. This concept will make the most sense to someone whom has tried to quit any strong habit, you know your “feelings” are stronger than your “knowing” any day.

    Then you tried your first cigarette, and chances are that you weren’t so good at smoking. That would come with practice.

    Time passes and you continue to reinforce the emotional associations with your triggers. If you feel tired, stressed or angry, you want to smoke to get that refreshing “ahhhh” feeling.

    People that have tried to quit smoking have spent a lot of time analyzing their habit, fighting themselves for control of cravings. But, you didn’t learn the smoking habit with the thinking and analyzing part of your mind, so why try to use that part of your mind to change the habit?

    It makes a whole lot of sense to quit smoking using the same methods you started smoking with. A “hypnotized” state of mind combined with emotions, authority figures and repetition. Also known as: modern hypnosis.

  • Memories and Your Behavior

    by Patrick Glancy

    You, like everyone, have memories that can affect how you feel. You can remember a happy memory and feel a bit of the happy emotion. Just as you can remember a sad memory and feel the sadness.

    Our mind stores all of our memories and they’re always active, just not in a way our conscious mind is aware of. Because of this, we can constantly be affected by the emotions in our memories. Even memories you don’t think you ‘remember’.

    Memories with traumatic emotions can cause disorders like post-traumatic stress and depression. They can also cause other disruptions in your life like problems with anger, fears, and stress.

    Medication commonly prescribed for relief of these issues, but it only attempts to address the ’symptoms’ rather than address the cause. The problem is rarely ‘fixed’ with medication.

    The key to long term help with these issues would appear to be the emotional association with the memory. What would happen if that association could be erased, reduced or even changed?

    There is research using a medication called propranolol that can be used as an “amnesia drug”. The purpose is to directly disrupt the connection between our memories and the emotions they are associated with.

    Described in the Journal of Psychiatric Research, they talk about psychiatrists at McGill University and Harvard University using the drug to disrupt the memories of trauma victims. The drug reduces the emotional connection with the memory while leaving the conscious part of the memory.

    This resulted in people that can remember the memory, but have a sense of detachment or dissociation from the event. The permanence of this process and potential side effects are not yet known.

    There are also ways to reduce and change the emotions associated with memories. These processes are well established and have no side-effects.

    In particular, hypnosis. Hypnosis seems better suited for this process since, when in hypnosis, you are using the emotional part of your mind. This is very evident when working with traumatic memories from childhood. When re-experiencing memories from childhood a person often ‘feels’ younger than their current age. You tend to experience memories with the same age of mind that you originally experienced the situation.

    When using modern hypnosis to re-experience a traumatic memory, the hypnotist needs to be properly trained for the process to be quick and effective. When these conditions are met, the client can experience the memory with the perspective of adulthood. This alone will often reduce or negate the emotions involved.

    This process is essentially about gaining perspective on the experience and the client’s part in the experience. This process will often create a sense of distance and separation from the memory. A memory, minus the negative emotions.

  • Weight Loss-Do it the Right Way

    Losing weight can easily be attained if you go about it the right way. Obesity in America is at an all time high. According to the CDC, in 2006 only four states had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. There are many reasons people gain weight, it could be snacking, portion issues, or food addiction. For all the reasons people gain weight, there are just as many reasons to lose weight.

    Snacking between meals is very common. Often people aren’t eating the right things at meal times, and become hungry quickly. You need to know what foods are good for you and why you are hungry in the first place. Some times people snack when they are not hungry, maybe because they are nervous, bored or stressed. It is important to address these issues before you can be successful in weight loss.

    Snacking between meals can be another problem. Some people deal with their emotions by snacking. Think about times you may have been snacking, were you nervous, were you bored or maybe you were stressed. These emotional connections often cause you to turn to food and snack when you are not hungry. Once you learn to control these feelings and can identify the triggers associated with them, you will find weight loss easy to attain.

    Food addiction is an issue that is finally making its way into the forefront of weight gain. People who are food addicts are usually completely out of control and unable to know if they are truly hungry or simply having a craving. Often times, food addicts have become so because of a habit. Once you address this habit, you are able to regain control and focus this energy on something else such as weight loss and exercise. Unfortunately people who suffer from this have a hard time identifying this as the source of their weight gain.

    It is difficult to figure out why you over eat, make bad food choices or snack without help. Hypnosis has proven to be a highly effective tool in the battle against weight loss. Hypnosis is not a short term fix, many have experienced long term success because hypnosis deals with the actual triggers and attachments to food that could hold you back with other short term plans. It confronts food addiction head on by giving an answer to the “why am I eating so much” question that many food addicts deal with day in and day out. This treatment deals with all the behaviors you are unable to deal with through regular diet and exercise.

    After your first session you will instantly feel rejuvenated and energized. Hypnosis helps you to crave other things such as exercise, healthy food and other activities. Your energy will return to allow you to find joy in new activities and hobbies. You will feel more happy and relaxed that you are doing something about your problem instead of doing nothing at all. You will no longer feel the need to eat unhealthy things and sit at home on the couch feeling helpless.

    Finding a plan that works for you and your lifestyle will help you reach your goal of weight loss. Instead of doing nothing about it, it is time for you to do something. Think what your life could be like while you are losing weight, think of all the energy you will have. Don’t be one more in the obesity epidemic, be one more on the road to a better, more healthy you.

You may find some of the smaller models for less than $100, but the more sophisticated laser versions will probably be considerably more – up to and possibly over several hundred dollars. Of course, your small business might not need the highest-end barcode scanner. You decide.

    For every disease there are some risk factors it is same with breast cancer. There are some risk factors which are not under the control of a person and some risk factors are those which depend on the life style of a person.

    First I want to write about the factors which cannot be changed, if you are a woman your risk of getting breast cancer is automatically increased. Women are at a greater risk of getting breast cancer as the breast cells are persistently exposed to hormones like estrogen and progesterone. Men can also suffer from breast cancer but breast cancer in men is a very rare case.

    The female hormones progesterone and estrogen are responsible for breast cancer. Female who takes hormone therapy after menopause have a higher risk of breast cancer.

    One more factor aging but you cannot control this factor. Females who are involved in physical activity have less chance to develop breast cancer as compare to those females who have sedentary life style. There is no clear about except alcohol and cigarette consumption.

    Higher alcohol consumption increases a person’s risk of developing breast cancer. Studies show that a person who drinks alcoholic beverages three or more times a day doubles her risk of breast cancer. By limiting alcohol consumption, a person will also lower her risk of developing breast cancer.

    You have a higher risk of suffering breast cancer if you have one or more family members who have developed breast or ovarian cancer themselves. The more members of your immediate family suffering from breast cancer, the greater your risk of developing the disease. If this is the situation, be keen on doing monthly self examination.

    There are many things in life worrying about, but stress should not be one of them. Stress is like disease which sucks the fun out of everything. Stress cause sleep deprivation, lose interest in activities you once found entertaining, and stress can also cause your work performance to suffer.

    Many people think stress is caused from things such as financial problems, marital problems or family issues. This is not always the case, stress can be happy events such as a wedding, children, or a vacation. Stress is about perception. What is stressful for one may not be for another. Many times we blow things out of proportion and therefore causing more un-necessary stress in our lives. Stress, whether good or bad can lead to other very serious problems.

    Stress has been linked to medical problems such as chronic headaches, age acceleration, lower immune system, heart attacks, and stomach problems, just to name a few. Many people under stress are also short tempered, grouchy, anxious and jumpy.

    The good news is stress is manageable. By learning to manage stress, you will find that you look forward to meeting new people, regain your sense of humor and self confidence. You will also find you are more relaxed, calmer, and have increased energy. You may even find renewed excitement with recreational activities and have more independence.

    Stress is all about perception. What is stressful for one may not be for another. When learning to cope with stress, you must look at perception as well. Many times we blow things way out of proportion and therefore causing more un-necessary stress in our lives. Some think of stress is caused from bad things in peoples’ lives such as financial issues or marriage problems, however often stress can be caused from something happy such as a wedding or children.

    There are many ways to manage stress. Some turn to professional help such as a counselor, others use medications, and some turn to hypnosis. It is important to research all aspects of each treatment to decide what is right for you.

    Hypnosis can help with stress management through many avenues. It allows you to change your response to stress and help address what triggers stress in your mind. You will find you are calmer, relaxed and more rational. Your body will be more relaxed, your breathing more steady which will calm your mind. All of this will help fight tension from stress which can cause chronic medical problems. It will also allow you to address the behaviors you have while experiencing stress such as anger or frustration and help you to remain calm in these situations.

    Stress has been and will always be a fixture I our society, chances are you will always have stress in your life but it does not have to rule your life. There are options out there and it is up to you to make the best decision for you and your lifestyle. Stress is not good for you, your family or friends. The time has come for you to end the stress cycle.

  • The Premier Twelve Amplifier by Conrad Johnson

    Conrad Johnson’s headquaters are in Virginia and they are a name synonomous with high quality audio. CJ was the brainchild of Doctors’ Lewis Johnson and William Conrad and was incorporated in 1977. The first amplifier that they produced was a vacuum tube preamplifier named the PV-1.

    Conrad Johnson is synonymous with quality with price tags that certainly reflect that, although many audio enthusiasts feel the money is very well spent indeed. One of their flagship amplifiers is the Twelve Tube monoblock power amplifier, so listening in stereo will set you back close to 7 grand.

    The Conrad Johnson Twelve tube has a refined sleek look with a brushed brass finish. It has some relatively straight forward circuitry and a large output transformer. This allows a wide bandwidth and high phase linearity. It’s nothing too spectacular, but it doesn’t need to be. This amplifier has earnt its followers through its performance rather than style.

    So what of the performance? Well this Conrad Johnson overall sound is very rich and open with a lush transparency, excellent mids and a deep punch like bass and an excellence at high frequencies. It completes the transitions between frequency extremes perfectly through the mid and upper ranges, which are often very difficult.

    Some tube amplifiers can struggle with transients usually when playing pop and rock however the Conrad Johnson Twelve sounds coherent throughout one of the very best I have ever heard.

    Tube amplifiers are also often known for reliability problems, but the reliability of the Conrad Johnson is also something that sets it apart. It is very rugged and is very unlikely to give you any problems down the years which is the peace of mind you need when making a purchase at this level.

    So the Twelve Tube really does deliver, and the internet is an excellent place to start a search for these amplifiers. Just spend a bit of time and have a look around.
