This is/was a great thread.
What are the latest 845 tube impressions people have? Might as well keep this info in the same thread so it's all together.
I've got some Elrogs en route this week. I've been enjoying 845Bs in both my Thoress 845 monos and my more recently acquired Melody AN845 (for a second system). The Elrogs seemed like they'd be an upgrade but we'll see. The 845Bs were better/more nuanced than the Melody-stamped 845s that I got with the Melody amp--not sure what brand they are, but they appear to have brass bases. Not bad but seemed more forward with less micro-dynamics than the 845Bs.
I would like to try some Psvane WE845s or the Shuguang WE845s for comparison, but a couple threads it seemed, quality addressed, the Elrogs were at least a little better.
Please post recent 845 experience/thoughts.
thanks...
