FYI tubes get super hot. That's what they do. The more tubes, the more heat. If you want a "cool" tube amp, try solid state (but not Class A)!
Warm, rich, smooth, 3d tube integrated amp, budget $6000
Hey guys sorry to ask again but now I'm considering a tube integrated for my vienna acoustics haydn grand, atc scm7 and yamaha ns5000. Want something, rich with forward mids.. something 3d sounding.
So far my top contenders are conrad johnson cav 45s2 and prima luna evo 400. If it doesn't get super hot that would be nice but not mandatory.
Right now I'm using my elekit tu8600 which is a very good amp.. works well with grand haydns but not enough power for ns5k or scm7.
Thanks !
