The First Watt amps all have different sonic signatures. I currently have the FW J2 driving my Cube Audio Jazzon speakers in place of my 300b monos and the SQ is sensational with a tube preamp. The J2 actually yields an even broader soundstage than my 300b monos and during the summer heat in CA, it is a welcome change with no lacuna in its performance. It is remarkable amp like all Pass Labs gear and sure to be long lived.
How Long Should a First Watt SIT3 Last ?
I'm fairly certain my Quicksilver Monos are kaput. Im thinking maybe I don't want to mess with the troubles and uncertainties of tubes. Im considering getting a used SIT3, but how long should they Last considering the internals are no long available if I encounter a problem?
Thank you,
