SONY TRINITRON ON 11 YEARS

more reliable amp: tube or solid state class A
This is why I come back here so often. Geesh, I'm not even a tube guy, but to get a chance to listen in on a discsussion between Mr. Berning and Mr. Karsten is a real treat indeed! Thank you gentlemen.

Change from Spectral
TBG, I thought the SP6 was cap coupled? I'm not familiar with the Electro-Research amp. If the amp was DC coupled I'm not surprised you had a problem when DC leaked from the ARC cap coupled pre. This example only supports my idea that DC coupled a... 
Change from Spectral
That "using both a pre and amps dc-coupled is NOT at all a good match." is news to me. Spectral, at least in the past, only made DC coupled pre's and amps, as well as Atma-sphere, Krell, etc.. I suspect (for some time, it was srongly recommended) ...
