Hi Folks:
Thanks for the thoughts so far. Yes, I fear I may be disappointed were I to part with the Syrah. I could try something new (but keep the Syrah) and sell the one I prefer less. I have my Syrah retubed with some exotic tubes that really do seem to get the most out of the unit, including some Kenrad black glass regulators, a very fine Mullard rectifier (tried Bendix and others but nothing seems to touch this Mullard) and a pair of Sylvania 6SN7W metal base tubes - they really seem to take things to another level.
Anyways, I'm still wondering if anyone has gone from Supratek to something they really prefer, as I may like to try the same route. I want to get the very most from my vinyl, and am just wondering what pre/phono that could take me to a new level (if such a thing is possible).
Thanks!
