Has anyone tried the Coincident Dynamo 34SE
Charles1dad, you have a great system. I think I'm going to go in that direction over this next year. Need to wait a bit until the new house is finished. 
It was 20 years ago today. . What was your system?

Leben CS600 owners, what tubes have you rolled?
Hi Bolero,The Reflector 6n3ce is a 6L6, a really long lasting, tough as nails tube, yet it sounds wonderful in your model Leben. If you would read Jeff Days review, as I have suggested, it would clear up your confusion. A s I previously explained,... 
Vandersteen 2ce vs Sonus Faber Luito
I'd go Vandersteen, I owned them in the past and Zd542 did a good job describing them. I generally like SF speakers, but in this case the Vandy's are better. 
Tube Dealer Recommendation
All of the above recommendations are spot on. I especially like Jim McShane and Kevin Deal. Like Wolf, the Tubestore replaced a questionable pair of tubes for me; they were courteous, fast, problem solved.

Read Jeff Day's (6 Moons and Positive Feedback writer). Call Jim McShane and order the Reflector 6n3ce tubes. You will not be disappointed. I'd follow most of Day's suggestions. Good luck. My brother has this amp and it sounds amazing. 
Prima Luna vs jolida
Primaluna run the KT120s with no problem. I have them, sound excellent. I believe the Primluna is the better product, better build, sounds great, auto bias, plus many other outstanding virtues. A huge thunderstorm hit the other day and blew my pow... 
Putting together first system... clueless.
Baliacta, with Wolf's advice you can upgrade tubes and buy even more vinyl. 
Putting together first system... clueless.
