For what its worth, I have the EVO400 Integrated; now running KT150s, and Mullard tubes on the two front; it’s glorious.
Hey Rick
Can you provide a bit more insight into what the KT150s sound like in the EVO 400 integrated? I tried the KT120s in my Dialogue Premium integrated and found them to be rather harsh and fatiguing, although they did produce more "punch" than the EL34s.
Have you tried the KT120s, and if so, how do they compare to the KT150s?
Oh, and I am very jealous that you live so close to Upscale. I live in Boston and the only thing I can say about our local hi-fi shops in New England is that they full of attitude and empty of substance.
Thanks!
