@larryi  The 300b is not the only contender in the low-power weight class. True and I don’t believe that anyone on this thread is disputing this. However, Don and Lynn have stated the very compelling reasons why their amplifier was built utili... 
Used vs new Tube mono amp? - same model
I agree with the sentiments expressed above. If the manufacturer has not made any notable changes I don’t believe that you’d hear any difference between them. I do also agree that it’s dependent upon one’s personality. Some people are more obsessi...

@aricaudio Wouldn’t that high of an output voltage limit the usable range of the volume control? Possibly too high a gain in the audio. Granted, I don’t know the input sensitivity of your 300b amplifier or the level of gain in your line stage. I...

@earthbound Yikes. This isn’t a good sign I disagree. It is a small European brand/product that flies under the radar, so many aren’t as aware of its existence. It hasn’t the hype or attention of some of the popular Chinese brands covered oft... 
Shindo vs the world
@lalitk  Now that I’ve found the speakers that can be powered and convey the sheer musicality of a 300B’s SET amp, it’s hard to ignore the prospect of putting together an all Shindo system. IME, Shindo engages your senses in a way that’s very ra... 
So I bought the Willsenton R-800i
@richl35  Congratulations!! You have obviously found a splendid amplifier and speaker pairing.👍 Charles

@lewinskih01  BTW, I'm running 45-type SET on my tweeters above 1 2kHz and absolutely love them. I realize 300b gets more love, though :-)  Lovely thread. I wish it weren't the exception arou d here! I believe that both the 45 and 2A3 tub... 
Shindo vs the world
@lalitk I know that you have been very happy with your Accuphase and Tannoy pairing for quite some time. What are you looking for that in your opinion is different/desirable with Shindo Western Electric 300b amplifier and WVL/Horning/ Cessaro sp...

@lalitk  I plan to put together Shindo Pre and amp with one of these speaker brands ~ Wolf Von Langa / Horning or Cessaro’s That is exciting!! Keep us posted on your progression, Charles

@wig  I currently do my listening after 8 PM for a few hours and typically my listening sessions never exceed 75 db and I don't feel like I'm missing anything; excellent imaging, sound staging, low level detail, clarity and tight tuneful bass ba...

@ghasley  I appreciate your feedback and perspective. Quite the endorsement and admiration for Shindo Audio. Charles

Do my ears deceive me??
@soix  If Magico, Wilson, Joseph Audio, Rockport, Vandersteen, Audio Research, etc. don’t ever use EQ at shows that they pay a boatload of $$$ to attend, what do you think you know that they don’t? Are you smarter than them? If the answer is no,...
