DeVore O/96 Unboxing
@ronboco Yes. It’s not ideal. I have limited options with the room as is. For critical listening I cover the windows with (3) 2’x3’ acoustic panels and put up a 5’ gobo studio panel on the kitchen side to block first reflections off the right spea...

@mwood Close. It’s a Torii MkIV. I’m curious about the 300B sound. May have to investigate later.

@slaw  Agree. I might have done better with the Duet15s.

Ayon Triton Evo Integrated
I've just plugged in (4) matched Sylvania black plate 6SN7s (1960s/70's I think) and (2) matched RCA long black plate d getter 12AU7s. It sounds like a burlap sack was removed from over my amp. Striking improvement. Immediately more open and clea...

@rvillanova Excellent. I hope it’s the last amp for me. I’m going to roll some preamp tubes for a few months then settle in.
