Sonic qualities of SET output tubes?
I heard the same set up at Axpona 2 years ago and it was as close to a live event as I have heard. I could feel the bass and while it was very, very loud, I could listen easily due to the lack of distortion. Classic Audio speakers and Atma-sphere ...

This is a sleepy thread and I wonder if owners are still happy with CPT? Still have them? Sold them? I imagine you all still have them and are very happy. Well my little 150 has changed personalities over the past day. It changed for the better in...
