@sns,
I believe that if you were to take a chance on the Elrog you'd really like them, beautiful sound. No audio product receives 100% agreement when it comes to listening impressions and preferences. @brownsfan finds Elrog superior to the EML XLS , I do not. Different ? Yes but not better as each has its respective strengths. We both are seasoned listeners with discriminating taste (Fair to say I believe). In other words we know what we like, simple as that. Bottom line, you can not go wrong with either genuinely fine 300b tube.
