@chakster Thanks. Yes I've noticed they can cost about $500 each.I'll speak with Andy, I suspect he can suggest some excellent cheaper alternatives.

@jperry @rcprince Thanks for the info. I'll contact him.I currently have an Octave HP700. I'm looking for a lower noise floor & increased detail. Just to reiterate this concerns the phono stage module.

No rush...I just thought I'd inquire for future reference.

Oh right. So what's the significance of the numbers 81, 83 & 88?

@chakster  - thanks for the info. So could I replace my 3 tubes with Telefunken ECC801s or would I need to replace exact type for type?

@lewm  @atmasphere - thank you both for informing me. I didn’t think of matching. I still have much to learn with valves!What do you guys think of the Allnic H1201? The reviews appear favourable...

So which valves would be a suitable & significant upgrade from the stock ones in the Herron?

If I go all out Herron system, as I mentioned, it would mean selling all my balanced cables. Can any of you suggest great single ended cables up to about  $700?I'm looking at AntiCables...Thanks Rich

I did a head to head comparison with the Herron, the aesthetics rhea signature and a Zesto and the Herron was favoured by all three present. Interesting...what was the rest of the system & cables? What differences did you hear?

@rauliruegas - I'm now looking to sell my system & replace with valve. The current system replacement contenders are Herron & Atma-sphere.So the Herron VTSP-360, VTPH-2A & M2 or Atma-Shpere M60 & MP-3 (with phono stage)
