Best 300B tube

I replaced Genelex PX300b's with JJ 300b's in my system. I have Charney Audio Companion Horns with Omega RS7 drivers. The Omega's are a little on the dark side and the hardness of the JJ mates well with them.

A while back I went to Charney Audio to listen to a new speaker design. We took some time to compare different 300b's. He has a vintage pair of Western Electric and the one that came very close was the Psvane WE300b Replica Plus version. The Plus is their latest version since they had sustainability issues with the first run. If I were to upgrade to a Lowther, Voxativ or AER driver I would seriously consider the Psvane WE300b Replica plus if I couldn't score/afford Westerns. Do a search and read a few posts about them.

Chris: thanks for the advice. I'll check de Psave. I realize is a matching dilemma.

Wrong thing to fix a high end dac should not be run by a standard pc

Pcs are not designed for quality music transport  a high end server introduces a less less noise into the data stream the vceaner data gives the dac a much better data streamro eork with  which resulta in a far better a ound from the dac garbage in garbage out

We have been working with digital for many years we started with Mac minis rhen compares stock pcs with tweaked up ones
then we moved int
auralic then we moved into urender and the aprender dounded dramatically better

Then we tried an inmous zenith which soundeed way lusher with a much largar sound stage

Now we discovered a new server from europe which asounds even better snd is way more flexible

A high end system is only as good as its weakest link and a PC is not a good way to feed a high end dac

A dedecated nusic server makes a huge difference

You just need to hear one in your system you eill be shocked at how mutch better your system will dound

Us importer 432 evo servers

Dave: No doubt 432Evo would be an excellent upgrade, but its price is more than EUR 11,000. 2Qute was EUR 1,200 and when I compared conneted to a Mac Book Pro the sound was absolutely better than de EUR 600 cd player that a I used before. By the other side, if Mac as a source with Audirvana were low level option, why many brands use that combination to test their products in High End events (Tannoy Prestige series for example)?

Dave...do you see a large incremental improvement if you add the EVO to the Lumin X-1?  As you know I did not hear any improvement with the EMM LAb DAC and Laufer MP.
