Steve,
As you know, we totally disagree on this and you haven't mentioned, forgetting all about preamps, how the Yaquin valve power amp murdered your Densen power amp...
I can still see the smile on your face now when listening to the Eagles with the Spectral/Yaquin combination!
However, I don't want to turn this into a tedious valve vs. solid-state debate. I was merely reporting on my recent findings. You'll see (hear) what I'm talking about on Monday
Marco.
