Hello Simon. I've owned quite a few int. amps over the years
and I believe what you're trying to achieve (less grainy sound) will only be accomplished by buying something more refined...higher-end SS equipment. Many fine int. amps to choose from...Audio Refinement, Bryston, Sim audio, Plinius etc,. If you want to try something different, try a hybrid
int. amp. Recently I purchased a little 30w. Jolida 301. This retails for $350 and sounds IMO absolutely fantastic. Sounds great w/the stock tubes, but if you want it to sound even better put some NOS tubes in, you'll be amazed! Nad is very fine but if you want to go to the next level, you'll have to buy higher end SS equipment (more $$$) or
give a hybrid int. amp a try. The reason the 320 Bee may sound different than the 370 might have to do w/the signal to noise ratio of the two amps. Bill
