custom-built tube amps


Wht are the pros and cons of having a tube amp "custom built"? I heard one that another person had, by the same "builder", and it sounded absolutely glorious. What questions should I ask?

In year 2000, I had cutom built an Amp from Cary Audio , with all possible upgrades and features , as well as features like , dual speed cooling fan , soft start cuircut , volume pot , headphones jack , triode ultrlinear switch, etc . Last year I sent it for service to Cary , and had many parts replaced and upgraded. The amp has been giving me great service all these years . I believe it gives sound for which I would otherwise need to spend many times more .
