| Amp/ preamp for electostatics and why I believe that tubes add warmth and life to the rather lean character of logans. The difference was rather pronounced when I went from solid state to tubes on my ReQuests. A buddy borrowed my tube amp to try on his Maggie 3.5's and sold his solid ... | |

| Lost that "Tube Magic". Can you help? I know the feeling in that when I was picking up a pair of amps from a dealer and went in and literally could not believe how good the piano and voice sounded in the store from a Billy Joel album (and incidentally I am not a huge fan of). The deal... | |
