Yes the Vinnie Rossi "Brama" line has launched today. I am not sure at this point if I like the looks of the new models. I am very happy with my Vinnie Rossi L2iSE integrated, plus you get to look at the 300b tubes glowing.Is the new Brama worth t... 
Takayuki 300B vs Western Electric NEW Production 300B
Ooops.....Yes Takatsuki. I missed that one.I am leaning towards the Takatsuki in my preamp/Integrated. It should perform well.I just feel the new issue Western Electric 300b's would be quite good too.But of course hearing is believing, and I will ...
