Plus you say a spare set of valves, I presume these are the old ones that have been replaced when it was serviced, so I presume they should only be used as a stop gap if something happends to the new valves.
I am fairly new to valves, I am 57 years old and got my first turntable when I was 14 , but up until the last year , I had always been transistors.
I did demo an Icon Audio PS1 MK2 MC phono amplifier and a couple of MB30SE mono blocks and on certain material they sounded quite good , but were limited in the type of music they sounded good with, IE it had to be fairly simple well recorded records, but the mid range was great, but the treble was mushy and the bass too loose for me, so I am hoping the Ear with 50 watts push pull class A will be better.
Plus I have recently purchased a noteworthy Phonote MC phono amplifier which seems alot better than the Icon Audio phono amp , though I can only play it through the headphones since I dont have a main amp, so it hard to tell how much better.
Anyway, hopefully I have asked you a few questions.
Cheers
