Hey Warren. Welcome to the tube amp world. You should seriously consider the tube integrated offerings from Unison Research. Their Unico stole the lime light but their tube gear is, and this is the perfect word for their sound, fabulous. The S8 is simply knockout with the right speakers. Still not easy to find but surely easier than Mastersounds. Good luck! Arthur
Integrated amp up grade?
Here's a little history. I have been a SS guy my entire life. My last being a Yba Passion Integre. Loved it, but I decided (with some strong suggestions from other audiophools) to move to a SET integrated after purchasing my Zu Definitions. This has been a marriage made in heaven. I never realized, never having speakers before that were sensitive enough to be driven by tubes, how wonderous the SET sound is. I was thinking Mastersounds 845 Compact. Cannot be found anywhere right now. They (being in Italy) don't have a US dealership. Suggestions? First hand experiences a plus or excellent second hand ones appreciated. thanks in :)
