| Really...My favorite power tube is reissue that's not widely popular followup to my earlier post. I've had the 7581a in my PL Dialogue Premium integrated well over 100 hours. I didn't listen to the tubes out of the box and let them run 10 hours or so after installation. I didn't really detect any "break in" sound c... | |

| Prima Luna EVO series amps/preamps now available... I have the PL Dialogue integrated. I like the looks (I don't use the cage) It is without doubt the best tube rig I've ever owned and I've owned some costly gear that was finicky and didn't respond to tube rolling nearly as well.

I ended up just unplugging stuff when it happened and returning a hour or so later. It was annoying and aggravating. I tried gear to block it un... | |
| Could-care-less Manufacturers and Authorized Dealers Bash I never had a "bad" experience in many decades. When I needed repairs, those dealers or mfgs stepped up. | |
| Ayon vs. Mastersound vs. Vaic Tube SET IMO, it's very important to buy a "brand" that has good retail and great manufacturer support. It's fun to buy "exotic" but you are taking a chance you'll own a boat anchor some day. | |
| Really...My favorite power tube is reissue that's not widely popular arch2....I've been running the 7581a now for several days after replacing the Gold Lion KT77. In my PrimaLuna I like the 75s better.....much more tone, the sound staging and the detail is comparable to the Gold Lion....both tubes are wonderful, I ... | |

| Dac hookup.... Hgeifman, +1......always nice to use ethernet cabling into the router. a lot of energy waves float around the airways and this IMO takes that distortion out of the picture. | |
