| ss replacement for my SET tubes and Egglestons? Rtn,I was just speaking in general terms,within the SET universe there are numerous variations i.e. 845/211 vs 300b vs 2A3 etc. Even within the 'same' output tube family there`re further stradifications in sound presentation.My point is DHT tubes ... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Auntjenof2,You can get the Psvane from Grant Fidelity. That`e where I got my BT tubes, very good service. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Isochronism,I promise, no Ornette Coleman, is Eric Dolphy ok?Auntjenof2,The BT have been 'excellen't in the Frankenstein.Thanks to the generosity of Isochronism I`ll have the opprotunity to compare the Sophia RP and my BT 300b in a few days.I do r... | |
| ss replacement for my SET tubes and Egglestons? Rtn1,I`m not knocking solid state and I know many audiophiles prefer them. IMO the DHT type tubes have a instrinsic sound and character that`s simply different(better is of course a matter of opinion). The closest match to DHT tube character is pr... | |
| ss replacement for my SET tubes and Egglestons? Hi, If you happen to find a SS amp that sounds like your 45 tubes let the rest of us know,good luck. | |
| Need efficient floor-stander for 2a3 Cfluxa,Does the Tonian sound lean and brighter(some have noted) compared to the Lore? Which one gets the tone and timbre right and is thus more natural? | |

| Frustrated with the sound of my system Stuartbmw3,You can get superb sound from quality digital components without question. Digital or analogue systems run the spectrum from poor to sublime.I`ve heard more than my share of bright,analytical and amusical analogue setups(believe me).If ... | |
| Do you believe in Magic? Bryon,Trust your ears, remove the ERS cloth and see what happens to the sound quality. At this point in audio we`re just able to 'hear' things that can`t be adequately explained or measured yet.Chadeffect`s answer makes sense to me. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Isochronism,For some reason I don`t see your email address on audiogon. You can email me charles1dad@aol.com.Charles | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Isochronism,Thanks so much for such a kind offer. I`ll email you my address.Sincerely,Charles | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Doron,Hype can certainly cause prices to become inflated(no doubt) but it`s not killing the"hobby". Fortunately in this market we`re able to spend and buy as we choose and within our own individual budgets. There`s such a large price range in high... | |
| Thanks for the music Etta.... I have and will continue to enjoy the wonderful music she has left us with. | |
| Where stands the music of Chet Baker with you? Phaelon,I can(and have) listen to Chet`s trumpet for long listening sessions and enjoy every momment,such tone and expression.Regards, | |
