By far the bedt quality performance built
Is Linear Tube Audio now New Version 3
Not 1 company even at $10k+ have all brand name
Premium parts throughout, and yes absoletely it matters
Its under the hood that counts most
I have 40 years into Audio and go to many Audio get togethers
Compare yourself David Berning, Mark
And enginners put a Lot of time and testing into
Thier latest effort, and s 3year transferrable warranty
And 30 day return policy , no one else does that !!
