What amp do you currently use to drive the Dynaudios? I share the skepticism of some who have posted responses to you -- if you want to rock, I don't see why you're thinking of tubes. I've owned a variety of tube amps and preamps -- Conrad-Johnson, Quicksilver, Primaluna, Audio Research, Eastern Electric, etc. They all had their attractions, but since picking up a Naim Nait 5i integrated a few years ago, I've had no desire to go back to tubes (which can demand a lot of care and feeding, esp the power amps). But I have a small room and mainly listen to jazz and classical, not rock, so your experience may vary. I still think it's worth thinking twice about WHY you want to go tube -- what goal are you trying to achieve? There may be a better means to the end you seek.
which tubes for which genre ?
i have finally decided to turn to tubes but have no idea where to start, i've been reading into 2a3 and 300b triodes but they seem to have a reputation to shine in accoustic and vocals. i mainly listen to rock do these tubes do well in rock or am i better off looking elsewhere? i use the dynaudio audience 42's
