From the Wolcott ad:
"Product Weakness: In the overall sound equation I don't really consider these as weakness's but more my nit-picks to strive for perfection:
The leading edge is not as realistic as the inner resolution and decay,needs a tad better definition.Could do a better job with spatial seperation during complex passages on rock & roll and full orchestration.On a few recordings there seems to be a very slight emphisis on the top end.A noticeable loss at very low volume,but more an overall system issue than just the amps."
The Joules attack, inner detail and spatiality are excellent as you already know, I think the "big" question is, do you have a circuit that can handle 1000 watts constant draw from the one variac?. If you do, Donaudio's Joules are a steal. Of coarse I'm extremely prejudice.
