I have been following this thread, and am curious of one
thing. This is directed for Jon p, and there may not
be an answer here. I know you have mentioned the objective
of wanting to increase your power and headroom here. Is
there anything you are looking for from the VTL from a
sonic standpoint that you may prefer to the ARC. That said,
at this price point I would also want to hear the competition.
FWIW, I have VTL 750's. I am now looking for a slightly
warmer, more textured midrange. I am considering going to
KT-88's to achieve this. I am not sure this helps now.
However, I believe VTL offers their amps w/ a KT-88 option
so this could come to play at some point. My comments are
based on tetrode mode only.
