| Heresy's with SE? No question, C123666, a mediocre SET amp has the potential for being problematic even beyond the question of musicality. However, with our 104dB La Scala's, I've had two SET amps that were inaudible from more than 10 inches away. In my experience,... | |

| underrated or unheard of musician/band Great bands, Beatlebum. Used to see Anodyne regularly in Seattle. Lead singer was the singer in That Petrol Emotion. What Kathleen Edwards album would you recommend?Love Grant Lee Buffalo as well. "Copperopolis" is such a powerful album.Howard | |
| Jolida JD100 on the way Nick,Upon re-reading my post, I thought I might have sounded condescending, which was not my intention. I just know you've had a lot of questions of late in regards to tube characteristics, and thought Newbee's post hit the nail on the head. That'... | |
| underrated or unheard of musician/band I was going to say Waterboys, Ben, but just read your fine review of "This is the Sea", which remains in my top-10 all-time favorites to this day.Thanks for the link. Excellent site.Howard | |
