Tube Amps and Cabling


I am contemplating purchasing a VAC integrated tube amp to replace my solid state integrated amp -- when I can afford it. Do you have any experience with the effect of this kind of change on cabling -- from solid state to tube amp? Did your cabling sound appropriate after the change or did the change require you to replace any cables?

"Just moving from a solid state amp to tubes will have a sizeable & favorable impact on sound quality, much more so than a change in cables."

This all depends on the speaker being used and your personal taste.

There is always the possibility a different cable will sound better, but the only real concern in going from solid state to tubes is your speaker cable length. Keep it short and efficient for tube amplifiers.
