Ever change your mind?

I put a tube integrated amp up for sale because I bought something else. So after getting a couple nibbles, I thought I better make sure everything is still ok with it since it hadn't been in the system for a couple of months. Wow....it sounds so good. The main reason I wanted to go with something else is because the system was in a smallish room that tended to be hot anyway and the tubes just added too much heat. (I've since moved everything to a much bigger, more open space.)

It's amazing how much bass this thing gets out of my Maggies. I had to check to make sure I didn't plug the subs, Anyway, has anyone else had second thoughts at the last minute? Mostly, I am just trying to recoup some of the cost of the new piece. Not sure if I am trying to talk myself into still selling it or keeping it. LOL

Yep...I can think of a few things I wish I still had.  On the other hand, I can't keep everything.

the initial reason for sale is gone.

keep what sounds best, sell the other even if it is the new one, forget about what you paid, 

Not really. The new stuff does things I want (room correction, bass management etc.) And when I hooked it back up it sounds sublime. I was just reminded that the tube piece also sounds amazing. Whoever buys it was get a killer deal. And that's not meant as free advertising. It's not listed here.

Anyway, it's fun having stuff to compare. I'm going to eventually try a couple other pairs of speakers that are in other systems too.
