| Tung-Sol EL-34B vs Genalex Gold Lion KT77 for Cayin A100T Integrated Tube Amplifier Thank you all for the valued advise.Is anyone familiar with pre-amp tubes?

| 2 Channel Subwoofer connection Hi Matt,Thank you so much for your advice. That's exactly the type of connection I was aiming for-as that's my only option- because I don't have a sub out on my amplifier.However, my main concern was if I will be degrading the sound quality by run... |
