It you like the BC3.1, then how about the Blue Circle BC3000, or AG3000?

Blue Circle has also come out with a variation on its excellent entry level BC21; called the BC21.1 (probably partially due to a shortage of new 6SN7 tubes).
It really is a completely new model. It uses the same tubes as the BC3/BC3000/AG3000 (6922 tube); and shares many other design features and parts as the others

They will still be making the original BC21 also for those who prefer the sound of the 6SN7 tube. The BC21.1 will cost about $200 more I think. I guess it just depends on your taste in tubes, which one you buy.

Was this a new model? Hum could be the tubes going bad among other possibilities.
