Reference 3a are not quite 95 but are very easy to drive due to lack of complex xover. 
EL34 & 6L6 characteristics
I find 845 tubes to have the midrange magic of 300b but they have great bass with slam 
Tube life in preamp. Please help
Can you describe the sp9 sand why you liked it best mofi? 
EL34 & 6L6 characteristics
A good 6L6 has bass as well. Nos RCA black plates are the best. 
Best Minimalist DAC?
My vote goes to ayre. Beautiful natural sound.

I have also found telefunkens to be the tube to beat. My amprex's had a hot top end that sounded a bit unnatural. 
Help Me Choose a Preamp
I would go with audible illusions 
Yet another contender for my Klyne 6PE: ARC PH5
Get a Herron. I have a Delos and they are a stellar match. 
Lyra Delos or Helicon versus Soundsmith Zephyr
I haven't heard the bobs devices but seeing as how the trannies are exactly the same I can't see how they would sound any different. I love my parks audio SUT! 
Lyra Delos or Helicon versus Soundsmith Zephyr
Digital 3 yes they are the same although you can order either one with either tranny. Mine is the entry level with the 3440. Apparently cinemag has a better Tranny that I'm dying to use. It retails for 500 a pair. 
Beware How I was ripped off
Wow Dkarmeli I feel so bad for you!! And yes paypal are thieves as well. I think they do the bare minimum so backing it up with a CC makes good sense. The worst part I couldn't even give "audiosource" a negative feedback as to much time had passed... 
Fake Audiophiles
Real audiophile listens to lps and a fake audiophile uses digital and CDs 
Phono amp question,
I had a cheap antique sound labs phonolux and preferred it over an aesthetix rhea. Coupled with a good SUT it kicked a$$ 
Magnepan tonearm
Could you not make up the two MM with the cartridge location?
