    Default OTL

    Just ordered one of these, will be shipped in a week-

    www.transcendentsound.com/pinnacle.html

    Heard a pimped up diy version of the earlier SE amp at a previous Owston, it’s no longer sold- a mighty 1.5w/ch!

    In a lot of ways it was and is the best sounding amp I’ve ever heard. Lot of people saying this new PP version is even better, if this new one is anything like the one I heard I’ll be very happy indeed.

    Just got to buy eight 300b’s now...

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    JJ 300b, cheap, reliable unlike EH, good performers and well matched IME, sound excellent in my Tron, and believe me I've tried many!

    Yeah that would be good Alan, just hoping it gets somewhere near what I heard from Ray’s SE version.

    Yes that was my thought. Used JJ’s in my WAD 300b monos years ago, good valves.
