Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound?
Do power tubes affect the full freq spectrum or is it more focused on below 250 hz?  
Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound?
Curious, I read herein that the feedback level related to the amplifier is important to consider for purposes of evaluating whether it really makes much of a difference to tube roll power tubes. Anyone know why that would be? Further, I am biampi... 
Quality of recording while evaluating speakers
@imjerrys  Interesting points. I'm impressed you can tell the difference between 32 and 24 bit. Maybe more so using headphones which I'm not really familiar with that much. I have a tube of amplifier and I am milking the benefits of using better... 
Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound?

Franco Serblin R.I.P. What happens to Ktema?
@harris4crna  This thread has longevity. I like the ktema, and the sf il cremonese, I have the B&W 802 D3 so I appreciate your comments above.  If I buy the ktema I wonder how they'll perform in a biamp situation using a MC 901 from McIntos...
