| Does EAR324 phono stage sound like tubes ? Thanks Dan- I dont think i would like my phono stage to be really revealing as what you have described.It becomes too x-ray vision defecting the flaws of the recordings & one system flaws.Thanks again though! | |
| Does EAR324 phono stage sound like tubes ? Dani see, so NOS Ei... any ideas other than Tim were to source them ?Yes, they sound pretty good actually.In what ways does the tele better the stock tubes even just the two front tubes ?Thanks | |
| Does EAR324 phono stage sound like tubes ? DanThanks for reply. Are the stock tubes of the 88pb EI ?I feel they sound quite good already.On the positioning, V1 & V2 seems like those have to be matched. How about V3 and V4 ?Thanks again. | |
