Well, I like the glow of all my tubes, exception of 845. I like blacked out listening room, 845 ruins that vibe. As a result, had to purchase 845 special edition with black glass, now I can enjoy just like 300b amps.
Are tubes psychological?
This just occurred to me this morning as I listened in my rather dark listening room with the soft glow of tubed amps on the floor in front of me between the speakers: How much of my enjoyment of tubes gear is due to the relaxed state the glow puts my mind in?
Thoughts?
