| Avatar SE Tubes I'm still doing some reading on tubes for this amp. Any opinions on Telefunkin, Amperex 12ax7 or Mazda 12au7 tubes in the Avatar? From what I read these are some brands that might strike a chord. Just curious about who has been down this road befo... | |
| New amp or new cd player? I owned a 6450 for about 1 year. I would suggest some other upgrades to bring your system to a similar component level. While you are doing this get out and listen to some other brands and some tube amps too.The 6450 is good, better for me IMO tha... | |

| Need $1500 integrated amplification suggestions... I have an Avatar SE and have no regrets. It was a clear step up from the Vsi-55 for me. Sometimes I think it has less bass, other times I think the bass quality is just better. It certainly has better clarity, soundstage, and is much more transpar... | |

It had great power, a really deep 3D soundstage and solid build quality. I found with my setup it wasn't as transparent as I wanted--only complaint. Peopl... | |

| liquid sound I was flipping between a tube and digital amp a while back. I visualized this in textural terms like the difference between running your hands over grass compared to polished glass. The harmonics get thrown at you a little differently. I couldn't ... | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... I had an AX7e. It's a great amp. I had it side by side with several McIntosh integrateds and found it to be cleaner and more accurate in the soundstage without sounding at all analytical. I went to a ARC VSi-55 and was happy with my choice. Tubes ... | |
| Tube Options with Verity Tamino Thanks for all the replies! I appreciate them.I'm still considering the VAC integrated amps. The super would be nice but I may have to go with the Avatar for budget reasons.I think the Tamino's do well with upwards of 50 watts. The VSi-55 was all ... |
