| Is solid state on the brink of extinction? We all rather hear the real thing. Khrys, check out the comment of the new eAR owner on the piano thread. You might try one. The eAR can easily power Watt Puppies. | |

| Is solid state on the brink of extinction? Thank you for the input Eldartford. I hadn't even heard of the Carver. These things are cheap. I have heard rumors there are a number of these new breeds ready to hit the streets, at ever cheaper prices. | |
| Is solid state on the brink of extinction? On tube sound. I am just trying to describe the eAR in terms we are familiar with. For me, tubes have always imparted the playback with a wholeness, and kindness, solid state only approaches. The Pass amps brought me close. IMHO, the eAR (?digital... | |

| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? Frogman, speaking of human shape, the Cabasse Kara should do the kazoo trick, with the authenticity of a cloistered nun. | |
