As for these amps, 1st impressions are very good , trying them out with a pair of Mullards in which are new so need running in a bit. However they really sing and now I know what people mean when they say an amp "grips" the speakers. I knew the Celestion A series liked some power but they have seriously taken my compact A's to another level
The detail being revealed is really something and they sound like nothing will escape them, a real scale to the music has been unveiled with an apparent but restrained power behind it. As the valves mature it should only get better , then I have the Telefunkens to try out too.
I hadn't realised they would be such a step change, and my 1st valvey bits in my system.
If you are in the market for monos at about the 1000 pound mark you should listen to these.
Cheers Andy
