Sonic difference bteween VPI hw 19 mk iv & VPI TNT


I am looking to buy either a HW 19 MK IV with a SME 4.5 and a TNT w/JMW 12. All through tube pre and amp.
Any thoughts would be helpfull. Music is evenly divided between Classical, Jazz and Rock
Thanks!

I have both the TNT MK III and a HW-19. I think the TNT sounds just like you would expect the HW-19s big brother wouild sound. More bass, midrange and treble extension. Better solidarity to the "images" Speed is more accurate also d/t SDS. I still like my HW-19 but wouldn't trade the TNT in for it!
