Is there anyone who came back from tubes to SS?

I too switched because of reliability problems[Cary,Wolcott] and on the advice of a Lamm listener I switched to Aloia. Tube replacement constant biasing took away from listening

A long time ago, I had a pair of CJ MV75A-1s and a Luxman CL-32 tube preamp. They were nice but a little too lush for my blood. Silly me....I thought all tube systems sounded that way...so I switched to a pair of hybrids [Magics; Foster Blair] and switched the Luxman out for a Krell KBL. It's been about 7 or 8 years since then. I kept the Magics in my system but started missing that round dynamic spacing that only tubes can bring. I put my KBL on the shelf and bought a VK-5i. Things got noticeably better. But I still wasn't getting the dynamic range I was looking for. I'm now thinking about going all the way back...perhaps to premiers 8s, Atma-Sphere MA1s, Transcendents, or VK-60s.....don't think I'll be doing SS anymore. That's a little more than what you asked for...but the best I can do.....good luck in your search.

In response to snook2:
There are a number of outstanding and RELIABLE tube amps out there that don't require constant biasing and tube replacement. I'm not saying your gear was bad but if you stick with reputable quality brands with solid construction, I think you're in for a life time of reliable operation. I own Conrad-Johnson and Audio Research. Both companies have been around for a couple decades and didn't just recently jump on the vacuum tube bandwagon because they thought it was cool. I bias my amps maybe twice a year and the tubes only need replacing every couple years if I listen frequently. No "reliability problems" here.
