Chord Dave - Missing soundstage width

I wonder if you have tried rolling the first or second gain stage with any NOS small signal tubes?  I use new Genalex Golden Lions all around with NOS CIFTEs in the first gain stage of my Prima Luna Dialogue Premium Pre...  In my system it really nailed the soundstage...

do you have an example off a piece of music that have a very wide soundstage and that can be found on Tidal

A wide sound stage can be:
- Recorded well to reproduce the effect.
- Engineered artificially to produce the effect.

Thanks all, brilliant answers.I really wish there was a like button.
I have some mullard NOS tubes from the 60' in the input stage, really made a positive difference

I also found that streaming to a Lumin U1 mini in front of my Qutest DAC sounded so much better than directly from a laptop running either Roon or Audivana...

Thank you very much for the

Wide soundstage and interesting music....

By the way think about embedding the audio system’s components before spending for upgrading them...

Mechanical resonance embedding, electrical embedding, and acoustical embedding are very important more impactful than " almost" any change in electronic component even dac or in some case speakers.......

If I would reveal what my dac is and at what cost you would be insulted....

And I listen to details and wide soundstage with depth and with all the music out of the speakers in nearfield or in regular listening...Priced component are generally better but embedding rightfully a low cost good component is way more impactful than buying a costlier one without controlling the embedding rightfully most of the times...
