RE: You use Goop too? Good Stuff! ~NT

Neil,

I think what you're thinking of is RTV and some type release acetic acid as they solidify - if you're using that you want the "low volatile" or "sensor safe" type that any auto parts store sells. But "Goop" isn't a silicon RTV but some other material that sets up less still and more "gummy" without being sticky. If you have to remove RTV to replace a component it usually will simply peel off the side while goop has to be cut repeatedly with a really sharp blade due to it's rubbery nature. Either goop or low vol RTV works - hot melt works well to temporarily tack a part in place while either the goop or RTV sets but won't stick long enough for permanent fixture.

"Monoblocks" = "monoblockheads" - it's "monaural amplifier"; "power output tubes" not "power tubes" & "patch cords" not "interconnects!" "Passive preamp(lifier) is oxymoronic!
